Verdict
On the Vacuum Wars star scores quoted in the X11 review, the X11 leads that MaxV Ultra reference on obstacles and navigation. Keep an S8 MaxV Ultra if mopping with vibrating pads and a bagged dock already works. Move to the X11 if you want the roller mop and bagless station they describe.
Overview
The S8 MaxV Ultra is a widely owned Roborock flagship with a vibrating mop and a bagged dock. The X11 OmniCyclone is Ecovacs’ newer roller-mop, bagless robot. Shoppers upgrading from an S8-class Roborock often land on this comparison.
What Vacuum Wars published
In the X11 OmniCyclone review, Vacuum Wars says the X11’s suction and airflow were among the highest they had recorded, with strong carpet deep cleaning and pet-hair pickup in their framing. For navigation they list X11 at 4.17 stars versus 3.01 for the Roborock MaxV Ultra, and obstacles at 4.17 versus 3.96.
They describe Ultra mopping as a vibrating pad with strong agitation, versus the X11 roller. We treat “MaxV Ultra” as their label for this class of Roborock, which matches the S8 MaxV Ultra in our catalogue.
Who should buy which
Owners happy with vibrating pads and bagged emptying can keep the S8 MaxV Ultra. Buyers who want the scores and bagless roller system in that Vacuum Wars review should look at the X11, then confirm the AUD price.
