CONCLUSION

   The RoboVac X8 Hybrid is the very first product by eufy to arrive in the lab and if it’s representative of their products I’m very curious to see what else finds its way here. Performance is solid across the board so I really have no complaints from the X8 Hybrid, not serious ones anyways. The dual turbines work great (still each turbine delivers 2000Pa suction so vacuums with higher suction could in some scenarios perform better) without adding extra noise and in terms of battery life the 174 minutes maximum recorded comes very close to the advertised number (180 minutes). The single side brush works well too although I have to admit that I’ve always favoured dual side brush models more (seem to clean better). The somewhat small dust bin had me worried initially but eufy seems to be more or less correct. Now I don’t know if this 400ml dust bin can fit the exact amount they claim but it did compete with other models that feature 600ml dust bins.

   So how much for the eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid? Well, currently the RoboVac X8 Hybrid retails for USD549.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 498Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) a price tag which is clearly set slightly higher than what I was expecting. Yes, the addition of a second turbine helps quite a bit but isn’t really a game changer (if these were 4000Pa turbines it would be a different story) while the small water tank may not be enough to cover large areas (still the same applies for many other robot vacuum models so it’s not just eufy). Price aside however I’m very satisfied with the performance of the RoboVac X8 Hybrid and for that it gets the Golden Award.
