Ecovacs DEEBOT T80S Omni vs iRobot Roomba 505X

Full Robot Vacuums comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official Ecovacs and iRobot sites.
2026 verdict
Two hands-off vacuum-and-mop combos go head to head here, and the Ecovacs DEEBOT T80S Omni edges out the iRobot Roomba 505X for the overall win, carrying a higher owner rating, a longer battery life and more supported integrations.
Both machines mop with self-washing, self-drying docks, run LiDAR-based navigation, and support multi-room mapping with no-go zones, so this is a close pairing rather than a lopsided one. The Roomba 505X's real strength is its AutoWash dock, which can go weeks between manual dustbin emptying, and it also adds Apple HomeKit support via Siri to its integration list. For buyers weighing runtime and rating most heavily, the DEEBOT T80S Omni is the safer bet, while HomeKit households or anyone drawn to the extended AutoWash interval may prefer the Roomba 505X.
