What the differences mean
Suction power
30000Pa against 7000Pa gives the Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni far more headroom on carpet and heavy shedding.
Edge and baseboard cleaning
The Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni's roller extends sideways to reach baseboards, cabinets and railings; the iRobot Roomba 505X relies on an edge-sweeping brush for the same job.
Battery life
200 minutes against 180 is close, though owners of the Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni still call its battery small for a robot in this price tier on a large job.
Connectivity
The iRobot Roomba 505X adds 5 GHz Wi-Fi on top of 2.4 GHz; the Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni connects on 2.4 GHz only.
Price
The iRobot Roomba 505X is the more affordable of the two, which is worth weighing against the Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni's stronger suction and longer runtime before deciding which one earns the extra cost.
Which one to buy if

30000Pa gives the Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni far more suction headroom than the iRobot Roomba 505X's 7000Pa.

Its extending roller reaches walls and railings the iRobot Roomba 505X's edge brush does not fully clear.
- price and a simpler app experience matter more
The iRobot Roomba 505X costs less and its owners report fewer app quirks than the Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni's occasional Chinese-character alerts.

What owners say
Owners of both robots credit a station for taking mop washing and drying off their plate, and both mention an occasional app glitch that clears on its own. Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni owners describe an OZMO roller mop that scrubs dried footprints and kitchen residue instead of smearing them, an extending roller that reaches baseboards and railings other robots leave dusty, and strong pickup on shedding pets, while noting a battery some call small for this tier and an app that occasionally sends alerts in Chinese characters. iRobot Roomba 505X owners praise precise LiDAR mapping and how reliably it handles pet hair and daily dust across hardwood, tile and everyday carpet, but say the cleaning cycle can run loud enough that they schedule it for when they are out, and its mop pads lift over carpet rather than deep-cleaning it.
