Both robot vacuums are packed with smart features designed to reduce the time you spend cleaning. Using lidar and a 3D camera for mapping, they can deftly navigate around furniture and baseboards, and even identify and avoid potential obstacles. The roller mop on both models also cleans itself while it works, and each robovac comes with a multifunction dock with a built-in water tank, allowing them to refill themselves and move dirty water into a separate waste tank. You can also use either the companion app or voice commands to control them thanks to their support for Matter, which lets you connect them to platforms like Alexa and Google Home.Both models are excellent cleaning devices, too, and each uses an extendable roller mop that can apply up to 4,000Pa of pressure and reach hard-to-clean areas (including corners). The biggest differences between the two models come down to how they handle suction and airflow while vacuuming. For instance, the last-gen X8 Pro Omni offers slightly more powerful suction at 18,000Pa, compared to 16,600Pa on the X9. The X9 Pro Omni, meanwhile, leverages Ecovacs’ Boosted Large-Airflow Suction Technology, which moves more air through the vacuum, allowing dust and debris to be pulled in more easily for a deeper clean.It’s worth noting that Ecovacs now sells a newer flagship, the Ecovacs Deepbot X11 OmniCyclone, which is also currently on sale at Amazon for $899 ($600 off). The high-end model adds even more suction (19,500Pa), an improved roller mop system, and a bagless auto-emptying dock that eliminates the need for disposable dust bags. That said, the X8 Pro Omni and X9 Pro Omni still offer many of the same core cleaning features for hundreds less.

I bought the RX 9070 XT for FSR 4, but the games I actually play don’t support it

When I bought my RX 9070 XT upon release, I expected FSR 4 to be one of the bigger parts of my upgrade. AMD's machine-learning upscaler had been positioned as the answer to DLSS, and the actual gameplay footage that was put out by reviewers backed up the image quality...

I finally see why everyone removes Windows bloatware – here’s my complete removal list

There are things Windows is good at, and other aspects where it fails miserably. Bloatware, I believe, falls under the latter. Over the years, Microsoft has been pushing more and more apps on Windows that offer no real utility to the vast majority of users. And after AI integration picked...

Stop treating the Raspberry Pi 5 as a smart home hub — it’s actually built for something bigger

The Raspberry Pi has always been easy to recommend for home automation, but the Raspberry Pi 5 complicates that recommendation in a useful way. If all you need is a box to run Home Assistant, a few Zigbee devices, and some basic automations, it’s more machine than the job really...

I used frame generation wrong for months – here’s what helped

Even though I've been using an RTX 4090 since 2022, I barely ever enabled frame generation for anything besides benchmarking. Every time I toggled it on, I was just underwhelmed with how the game felt while moving around, and turned it back off within minutes. Sure, the FPS counter looked...

Buying Plex Pass Lifetime is still one of the best streaming decisions I’ve ever made

I've been using Plex for more than half a decade, and one reason I've stuck with it is the lifetime subscription I bought. I still think it's one of the best purchases I've made for home streaming because Plex has almost everything you need for remote access and media management.

I stopped switching between four apps the moment I connected them to Claude Project

For a long time, my workflow was spread across too many disconnected places. Editorial tasks lived in one dashboard, side projects in another.

This $900 network switch has been flawless for nearly a decade, and it just taught me that it was a mistake

There's something about a network humming along for years without fault.
