The eufy X10 Pro Omni wins this one. It costs \$200 less, scores higher in our testing, mops better, and runs quieter. The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra fights back with stronger carpet cleaning and a better app — but without the camera-based avoidance and FlexiArm of its bigger sibling the S8 MaxV Ultra, the S8 Pro does not offer enough to justify its higher price against the eufy.
30-Second Summary
- Better buy: eufy X10 Pro Omni — higher BRV score at a lower price
- Roborock advantage: Carpet cleaning and app quality
- Price gap: \$449 vs \$649 (eufy saves you \$200)
- One-line verdict: The eufy does more for less. The S8 Pro Ultra is only worth considering if carpet is your top priority

Design and Build
Both robots are standard-sized rounds at roughly 14 inches diameter and 3.8-3.9 inches tall. Both fit under regular furniture.
Both docks handle self-emptying, mop washing, and drying. The key difference: the eufy's dock washes mops with heated water. The S8 Pro Ultra uses room temperature water — a surprising downgrade given its higher price. Hot water cleans mop pads better and prevents odor.
The S8 Pro Ultra's dock has a slightly larger dustbin at 350ml vs the eufy's 400ml in the base station (both hold 2.5L dust bags). In practice, both need bag replacement every 5-7 weeks.
Winner: eufy X10 Pro Omni — heated mop washing at a lower price.
Cleaning Performance
On hard floors, the eufy is better. 99.1% single-pass pickup vs the S8 Pro Ultra's approximately 97%. Both are excellent; the eufy is just slightly more thorough on fine dust and small particles.
On carpet, the Roborock pulls ahead. The dual rubber roller system extracts debris from medium-pile carpet more effectively, scoring around 93% vs the eufy's 81% on deep-pile. The S8 Pro Ultra's brush design agitates carpet fibers better despite having lower suction numbers (6,000Pa vs 8,000Pa).
If your home is mostly hard floors with a few area rugs, the eufy wins. If you have significant carpet coverage, the S8 Pro Ultra is the better cleaner based on how we test.
Winner: Split — eufy for hard floors, Roborock for carpet.
Mopping Performance
The eufy wins clearly here.
The eufy's dual rotating pads at 180 RPM with 12mm mop lift delivered 95% stain removal in our testing. The high mop lift means it clears area rugs without leaving wet marks — set it and forget it.
The S8 Pro Ultra's VibraRise 2.0 sonic mopping vibrates at 3,000 times/min with 6N pressure. It is decent but not exceptional. The critical problem: 5mm mop lift. That is too low for anything thicker than low-pile carpet. Medium-pile rugs will get damp marks unless you set no-mop zones manually.
Add the cold water washing, and the eufy's mopping system is simply a generation ahead at this price point.
Winner: eufy X10 Pro Omni — better stain removal, much better mop lift, heated washing.
Navigation and Obstacle Avoidance
Both use LiDAR for mapping and navigate efficiently. Room recognition, multi-floor maps, and scheduling all work well on both.
The S8 Pro Ultra uses 3D structured light for obstacle avoidance — it works in the dark and detects object shapes. The eufy uses AI-powered camera detection. In practice, both avoid shoes and cables reasonably well, but neither matches the S8 MaxV Ultra's 97% avoidance rate with its dual-camera system.
The Roborock app gives it an edge here — 3D mapping is not available on the S8 Pro Ultra (that is MaxV-only), but the Roborock app still offers better room management, per-room suction control, and more reliable zone editing than the eufy app.
Winner: Slight edge to Roborock — better app compensates for similar hardware.
Battery and Noise
Both pack 5,200mAh batteries with 180 minutes runtime. Identical real-world coverage of 2,500+ sq ft.
Noise favors the eufy: 58dB standard vs approximately 63dB on the S8 Pro Ultra. The Roborock is noticeably louder — you will hear it from the next room. The eufy runs quietly enough to ignore.
Winner: eufy X10 Pro Omni — 5dB quieter.
App and Smart Features
The Roborock app remains the best in the industry, even on the S8 Pro Ultra. Clean interface, fast response, reliable scheduling, per-room controls, and Alexa + Google Home + Siri Shortcuts support.
The eufy app handles basics but feels dated. Room editing is clunky, no Siri support, and the interface needs polish. The eufy's one advantage: local data processing — your floor map never leaves the device. Good for privacy.
Winner: Roborock S8 Pro Ultra — significantly better app experience.
Price and Value
The S8 Pro Ultra at \$649 sits in an awkward spot. It costs \$200 more than the eufy but scores lower overall. It costs \$250 less than the S8 MaxV Ultra but loses the camera avoidance, 3D mapping, FlexiArm, and hot water washing that make the MaxV special.
The eufy at \$449 delivers better hard floor cleaning, better mopping, heated dock washing, and quieter operation — for less money.
Winner: eufy X10 Pro Omni — hard to justify the S8 Pro Ultra's \$200 premium.

- You have mostly hard floors — it outperforms the Roborock
- Budget matters — save \$200 for a better-scoring robot
- You want reliable mopping with safe 12mm mop lift
- You prefer quieter operation
- Privacy matters — local data processing
Buy the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra if:

- You value app quality above all else
- You use Siri Shortcuts for home automation
- You already own other Roborock products and want one ecosystem
The Verdict
8.7/10The eufy X10 Pro Omni is the better buy for most homes. It scores higher, costs less, mops better, and runs quieter. The S8 Pro Ultra's carpet advantage is real but narrow — and its cold water mop washing and 5mm mop lift feel like cost cuts that the eufy does not make. If you want Roborock quality, spend the extra \$250 for the [S8 MaxV Ultra](/reviews/roborock-s8-maxv-ultra-review) instead. The S8 Pro Ultra is stuck in the middle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra worth \$200 more than the eufy X10 Pro?
For most buyers, no. The eufy scores higher overall and offers heated mop washing, better mop lift, and quieter operation. The S8 Pro Ultra only justifies the premium if you have lots of carpet — its dual rubber rollers handle carpet debris significantly better than the eufy.
What is the difference between the S8 Pro Ultra and S8 MaxV Ultra?
The MaxV Ultra adds: camera-based obstacle avoidance (97% vs ~90%), 20mm mop lift (vs 5mm), FlexiArm side brush for corners, hot water mop washing, 3D mapping, and 10,000Pa suction (vs 6,000Pa). The MaxV is a major upgrade for \$250 more. See our S8 MaxV Ultra review →
Which is better for pet hair?
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra. Its dual rubber roller system resists tangles and extracts pet hair from carpet more effectively. On hard floors both are excellent, but the Roborock's brush design gives it the edge in homes with heavy shedding.
Does the eufy X10 Pro work with Apple HomeKit?
No. The eufy supports Alexa and Google Home only. The Roborock supports Alexa, Google Home, and Siri Shortcuts — but not full HomeKit either. For native Apple Home support, you would need the Roborock Saros 20 with Matter.
Which robot is quieter?
The eufy X10 Pro Omni at 58dB vs the S8 Pro Ultra at approximately 63dB. The 5dB difference is clearly noticeable — the eufy can run while you watch TV, the Roborock will make you reach for the remote.
