Our Verdict
Dyson 360 Vis Nav
Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra
The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra is a much better robot vacuum than the Dyson 360 Vis Nav. The Roborock not only performs better, but it also mops. The Dyson's dock only charges the robot vacuum while the Roborock's dock empties the dustbin and conducts all mopping maintenance. While the Dyson leads in terms of suction and airflow, its performance deficiencies against the S8 MaxV Ultra show raw power can't make up for poor execution.
