What happened? Ecovacs revealed the Deebot X11 Omnicyclone robot vacuum at IFA 2025. Along with more suction than its predecessors, it offers improved runtimes, the ability to climb thresholds up to 4cm, and a dustbag-less design that negates the need for disposable components.

  • Featuring new PowerBoost Charging technology with GaN supercharging, the X11 Omnicyclone will automatically recharge while its rinsing its mops, allowing it to carry out extended cleanings without interruption.
  • Thanks to new mechanical climbing levers, the robot can traverse thresholds up to 4cm, allowing it to easily navigate between rooms, climb over rugs, or deal with uneven floor changes.
  • The Ozmo Roller 2.0 mopping system is paired with an AI stain detection system to ensure your hard floors are properly cleaned during each run.

Why is this important? Products from Ecovacs are constantly finding their way onto our roundup of the best robot vacuum and mop combos. The Deebot X11 Omnicyclone looks to be a massive improvement over older models, offering not just more suction and advanced cleaning skills, but substantial design changes that make it ideal for larger homes.

  • The lack of a disposable dustbag means you won’t have to deal with ongoing expenses related to bag replacements — an expense that quickly adds up for users of other robot vacuums.
  • The ability to stomp over 4cm thresholds ensures your robot can reach every room in your home.
  • With 19,500 Pa of suction, an extending roller mop, and built-in AI assistance, it should handle all sorts of debris and floor types with ease.

Why should I care? Instead of simple, incremental improvements, the X11 Omnicyclone offers truly unique design changes that could make it a wise choice for discerning shoppers.

  • With the ability to quickly charge while cleaning its mops and navigate all sorts of obstacles, the X11 Omnicyclone will likely be a nice fit for large homes with unique layouts or challenging thresholds.
  • Forgoing dustbags in favor of a reusable Bagless Cyclone Omni Station, the X11 Omnicyclone will cut down on your ongoing expenses, which is a big win for your wallet and sustainability efforts.
  • Ecovacs didn’t forget the basics, as these big changes are paired with a robot offering more suction, better mopping skills, and a cool new docking station design.
  • It’ll be interesting to see how the X11 Omnicyclone compares to the new Roborock Qrevo Curv 2, which was also revealed during IFA 2025. The latter offers more suction than the X11, though it’s unclear which will perform better in real-world testing.

The Google Home Speaker is impressive, until you look at the power cable
Sphere, Electronics, Speaker

The Google Home Speaker hasn't even started shipping yet, but one lucky buyer managed to grab one early and share their first impressions. While most of the news is positive, there's one detail that won't sit well with anyone who cares about repairability.

For the unaware, Google announced the speaker back in October 2025, and pre-orders went live last week. Priced at $99, it's the company's first new speaker in six years, so people have plenty of questions.
