By 2024, the phenomenon of overwork and intense competition, known as "neijuan" in China, has affected various industries, including the robotic vacuum cleaner sector. Major Chinese brands such as Roborock, Ecovacs, Dreame, and Narwal have established their presence in the global market and achieved leading positions in several technological aspects. As a result, Chinese consumers have been among the first to enjoy the convenience brought by these new technologies.
Here are some of the upgraded features introduced by these brands this year:
1. Slimmer Design: Reducing the height of the vacuum cleaner body effectively expands the cleaning area, eliminating blind spots under furniture. For instance, the Roborock V20 removed the top protruding LiDAR module and relocated it to the side of the body, resulting in a record-breaking slimness of just 8.2cm. The Dreame X40 Pro Ultra upgraded to a self-rising panoramic LiDAR, reducing its height to 8.8cm. Ecovacs X2S also developed an embedded LiDAR, achieving a super slim body of 9.5cm.
2. Dual-Arm Design: Corner cleaning is a crucial factor in evaluating the cleaning capability of robotic vacuum cleaners. In this regard, several leading brands have adopted a consensus by adding extendable mechanical arms to their machines. These arms allow the side brushes and mopping modules to extend outward, enabling effective cleaning of corners and edges.
The following video is a simple unboxing and introduction made by our techTongBo staff.

3. Powerful Suction: The latest flagship models from Roborock can achieve suction power of up to 11,000Pa, while Narwal 001 boasts 12,000Pa suction power. Ecovacs X5 Pro reaches 12,800Pa, and Dreame takes it even further to 13,000Pa. These numbers were unimaginable just a year ago.
4. Hair-Cutting Technology: Roborock utilizes hidden blades for hair cutting, while Dreame employs hair-cutting roller brushes. Ecovacs, on the other hand, focuses on a pet- and floor-friendly strategy by using a tooth-like structure to comb through hair, reducing tangles.
5. Adjustable main brush, mopping cloth, and side brushes with lift function, and secondary cleaning for heavy-duty areas: With the support of AI technology, pure sweeping, pure mopping, and multi-step cleaning for heavily soiled areas have become possible to cater to different types of flooring. Brands have also introduced dedicated pet modes to meet market demands.
6. High-Temperature and Active Water Cleaning for Mopping Cloths: To ensure thorough cleaning of mopping cloths, Ecovacs X5 Pro increases water temperature from 60°C to 70°C and employs flowing water for cleaning, resulting in a cleaner mop. Narwal 001 can identify stains and adjust cleaning temperature accordingly, with a maximum water temperature of 75°C to thoroughly clean heavily soiled mops.
