Indeed, in recent years, sweeping robots have become more and more advanced and more and more functional. Roborock and ECOVACS also have innovative breakthroughs in self-cleaning – Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra vs ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 OMNI. Let's try to compare, when the opponent is Roborock's ultimate flagship model, can ECOVACS stand out?

Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra vs DEEBOT X1 OMNI compare from the following aspects.
Price
ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 OMNI is officially priced at $1599 and Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is $1399. In numbers, buying Roborock saves you money, But measure whether price and functionality are equal.
Navigation
From the perspective of the basic navigation system, Roborock and Ecovacs navigation are very similar. Both use lidar sensors for navigation. In addition, there are other sensors and cameras on the front that can recognize objects to avoid obstacles. Both robots use an auxiliary laser system in the front to detect items on the floor, located below the line of sight of the main lidar. Ecovacs refers to this as TrueDetect 3D 2.0, which Roborock calls Reactive AI. And roborock allows users to build custom maps, while ECOVACS combines mapping and navigation techniques into one piece of hardware/software that is not as accurate as Roborock.

Vacuuming performance
The DEEBOT X1 OMNI gives us up to 5000 Pa of suction, while the S7 MaxV Ultra is slightly higher at 5100 Pa. With its powerful suction power, the X1 Omni can easily suck away large volumes of dust and hair. In addition, its automatic bin emptying function performs well. But the S7 MaxV Ultra excels at finding debris in the crevices.
Cleaning and mopping
Both have added a cleaning station, both with a "clean water" tank and a "dirty water" tank. The DEEBOT X1 OMNI uses a wipe system with a rotating mop, while the S7 MaxV Ultra introduces vibration mopping. Both remove stubborn stains and clean the mop. After mopping the floor, the DEEBOT X1 OMNI automatically emptied the dirty water, cleaned the mat, dried it with hot air, and replenished it with clean water. The S7 MaxV Ultra is the only floor cleaning robot capable of cleaning its own mop mats. After cleaning, it is dried by air. It lacks the drying function of a hot air mop that prevents bacterial growth and odor.
Cleaning station: "clean water" tank and a "dirty water" tank
If you have carpets in your home, then the S7 MaxV Ultra has the advantage of automatic mop lifting. When encountering a carpet, its mop automatically lifts so that it doesn't get the carpet wet. But the DEEBOT X1 OMNI does not have this feature.
Runtime
Before we talk about runtime, i would like to mention that both are equipped with a 5200 mAh battery, but the DEEBOT X1 OMNI can work for 4 hours continuously on a single charge (the S7 MaxV Ultra can only work for 3 hours). Sadly, the DEEBOT X1 OMNI is charging too long and it takes a long time to clean up again.
Additional aspects
While Roborock will connect with Google or Alexa for hands-free voice control, deebot X1 allows you to talk directly to the bot using natural language. The DEEBOT X1 OMNI uses a built-in voice assistant called Yiko. You can set up a variety of voice prompts. For example, you can just say "Hey Yiko, clean under the couch" to wake it up and watch it clean under the couch. You don't even need to touch your phone!
Yiko supports a wide range of voice commands
Summary
If you have to choose between two models, you will face a tough choice. Because they are very similar. It requires you to start from your own needs and whether there is a price problem. If I had carpets and floors and wanted to vacuum and mop both, maybe I would choose the S7 MaxV Ultra. But if my house is mostly hard floor and I just want mopping, then the DEEBOT X1 OMNI will be my choice.
