Roborock S8 Pro Ultra Vs Q Revo - Differences Compared & Tested

[@intocoasters]

That overlay was brilliant!

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Thanks, wasn’t until the behavior was observed as similar that I overlayed one on the other to check

[@groupazza]

The smartest way to compare the Object Avoidance tech used in both the robots by superimposing their movement upon each other. What a brilliant idea! Removed all my doubts in this regard finally. Tbanks so much. Subscribed and set it to ALL. Look forward to more such brilliant down-to-earth comparisons.

[@retrotoonsrewind]

I agree. The superimposed presentation did help a lot to compare these two robots. Thanks

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Initially I was just reviewing the footage of both. When I noticed the similarities between the object interaction. That’s when I went back and superimposed them.

[@6YJI9]

Holy crap my dude! That overlay comparison idea was mind-blowing to see both products being compared side by side! Super glad to have seen you do that, cause I wouldn't have though of it. I had to pause the video, get out of full screen just so I could smash that like button in an instant before continuing on with the video haha.

[@TheAthleticDeptFilms]

fantastic christopher walken impression

[@КаналКарнавал-ц6д]

Great video! Thanks! Very well done with overlay, was scared of bad q revo algorithms , but now I'm not

[@powell.christopher]

Wow. This was exactly what i needed. Interested in q revo but was worried about it's obstacle avoidance. Based on this it looks very decent. Thank you!

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Glad it helped!

[@ericmorgan372]

Watch the video from about the q revo from Vacuum Wars and it doesn't perform as well there. I think the s8 pro ultra can recognize and avoid a lot more objects than the q revo

[@user-gd1mm7gw8k]

Ofc it can it got IR black white sensor.

[@esteechait4320]

Same!!!

[@Hsound]

Thanks for the comparison ! Love your Commodore 64 rig, my first computer when I was 14 !

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Mine too

[@casan0gal]

Just wanna say thank you so much for this great review! It really helped me decide which machine to get.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Glad it helped

[@hutupis646]

you did a great job reviewing these two.

[@itsgmani]

That could very well be it could been a table leg and its circles to clean around it. Cuz it’s taller the lidar is kicking in.

[@bw162]

Never really appreciated the obstacle avoidance. Who doesn’t remove everything when they are vacuuming or mopping regardless of what is being used. Do people just mop around a shoe in the middle of the floor?

[@andrewmorgan1802]

Obstacle avoidance is very important if your dog isn't house trained yet😅

[@bw162]

What? You have a dog that isn’t house trained and you aren’t aware or looking for piles in your house? You’d have to be blind and no sense of smell to miss it.

[@jayjake]

smarter users automate the process and don't think about it too much, cuz If there's anything laying on the floor it will probably be gone 2 days later when the robot goes again, not a problem

[@bw162]

"Smarter users" don't leave stuff lying around. @@jayjake

[@lesnjeffsc]

@@bw162when people have pets that like to play after the humans go to bed toys can be left on the floor. I have my robot vacuum clean the floors in the early morning hours so we have a nice clean floor when we wake up. Not everyone has the “perfect organized floor”. So some of us need the obstacle avoidance system.

[@enriquecastano7655]

Been watching review videos to get an idea of which roborock I want, your choice of items especially the kong wobbler was the most realistic object avoidance I have seen. We use one at home as well. Guess Q revo it is.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

The q revo is doing a great job so far at my sisters place

[@a.nevillechamberlain7612]

Buying 2 Q Revos would make the most sense, double the cleaning time and coverage, it’s the smart choice given the cost of the very competent S8, at $1600. Unless the S10 is introduced, I see it on international markets, not for USA release, possibly due to the camera capture feature.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Taking into account of course twice the maintenance though.

[@user-gd1mm7gw8k]

S8 dual brush cleans better than 2x revo. also mop lifting helps whit carpets

[@Conradlovesjoy]

@@user-gd1mm7gw8kRevo lifts its mops higher. 5mm in s8, 7mm on revo

[@blisteringherb]

The Q Revo is on sale for $670 right now and this video is encouraging me to pull the trigger on it.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Great value for the money

[@roisingtommy]

Same. I have a Q7maxplus but the mopping is poor unless I pre-wet the floors with a solution/water and damp the mop+ change mop for every room

[@madhupai9683]

Thank you. very informative. Does the Q vevo have room mapping as well? The app you showed at 8:14 is available for both Q vevo and S8 Ultra?

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Yes it has the same room mapping features

[@mismailtekin]

It s Mustafa from Turkiye. That was awesome compare. Thank you so much👍👍

[@gjhunter9326]

Great review and video real world comparison. I am confused by your ultrasonic cleaning statement, however. I see nothing on the Roborock website about this. As far as I can tell, the pad simply vibrates at a high frequency at a low amplitude back and forth pattern, but there is no sound traveling through and agitating a liquid, which is how an ultrasonic cleaner works. Not that it makes any real difference in performance it seems, but can you elaborate or point to the details of this function on the S8 so I can learn more?

[@Golfboy-ze3le]

It looks like the same problem I have with S7 MaxV Ultra, is going to be on this new S8 vacuum. I never refill the water tank on the vacuum on my own, because it auto fills it, but today, I was looking at the cashback offer, and cleaning it up for pictures, and there is brown build up or mold/mildew in the tank! So I have been cleaning my floors with dirty water! gross! I have found the same brown mildew in my clean water tank too, but Today is the first time I even looked at the vacuum's water tank. Please come out with a better solution to add to the Roborock products! It says you are only allowed to use Roborock cleaning solution, so now I don't know what to do!

[@luanpham9764]

I saw this video first time: oh only 39k views, so low. But I’m still watch. And then: freaking awesome, your comparison was good, straight to the point, your voice easy to hear for me, very good overlay visualization. Subscribed.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Like and Share, thanks for watching.

[@heidibowers9483]

Another video tested the amount of water used during cleaning. The larger tank model uses more water so it almost works out the same as far as refilling goes.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

But if the S8 were on that dock platform the advantage would’ve been considerable

[@olebrommm]

q revo station we have has red light on the station and its not drawing water from the fresh water tank. it is depositing to the dirty tank tho. not sure what to test next

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Surely it must be getting the water from somewhere

[@olebrommm]

@@retrotechandelectronics well im applying water to the docking station to see if that helps. And it only works for the cleanup.its not taking in water in the internal tank of the cleaning unit

[@valeriannadan7453]

i quess its the round botom from the big toy what interfears

[@ClareE-b8f]

do they both self empty and clean? Does this mean they clean the mop heads?

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Yes both do all of those mentioned function.

[@dank9288639]

guys hold off on getting the Revo. They have the Revo Max coming out in April. With some really sick upgrades 😮

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Wait to see what the price is for the new features. It may not be in the revo category

[@terryreidstahly]

You show an ultrasonic cleaner and make reference to cleaning your carburetors but make no mention of why you showed it in regards to the robo cleaners the video is about. Can you elaborate do you clean the scrubber pads with it? Why else would you show it and mention it other than plug it for advertising?

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Wrong. Pay attention before making accusations. The pads are washed in the washing machine. They function on the robot as an ultrasonic cleaner. The specific frequencies mentioned.

[@klynge2377]

Hello there sir. Great video. i want to know how far into corners and wall the mob can clean. the store salesmen told me that the s8 ultra, could get all the way into the wall, while the Q revo could not. Hope you reply Thank you ;)

[@retrotechandelectronics]

I dont know about ALL the way, but pretty close.

[@m.wissembmsr1557]

Thanks❤❤❤❤

[@rarityd]

IMHO the pro ultra has a much better detection system and a level up from the q. I swapped my q revo for my Dad’s s8 pro after owning the q for 2 months and NEVER looking back. Thx Dad

[@retrotechandelectronics]

For a lot of people they wonder if its 800$ better.

Honestly, if I had both in hand having done these tests and was offered to but one for my particular situation. I would have gotten the w Revo And not the S8.

The q revo actually has more suction when tested in real world.

It really makes no sense to buy anything other than the Q Revo. Technology will move on significantly every couple of years anyway so why spend more when you don't need to?
