Deebot X2 Omni (DO NOT BUY)

This is the most inefficient "robot vacuum" I've ever had, its cleaning path is completely random and it continually stops, spins in circles and is pretty much useless. $2,500AUD is what I paid for it and it's a total joke.

My Roborock and Dreame robots run rings around this thing 🤦

I just experienced the same issue as yours these two days. Two days ago, it worked fine. I have no idea what caused the problem to occur, and I have not move any furniture what's so ever. The problem just suddenly happened.

Really appreciate that you've posted a non-sponsored video showing your experience with the device.

I was really hoping this X2 would be good, but this is just sad! Thanks for sharing this real life video. Please also share, if any future software updates make a real positive improvement.

You need to take AI off. Once you have done this, it will work very smoothly in a straight line!!!!

I just got my X2 Omni. Updated to v 1.56.0 and so far has been performing pretty well. I don't see the same type of issue as yours. The ZigZag thing is usually enabled if you turn on extra deep scrubing for the mob. Otherwise if it's just vacuuming there is no issie. Note that you have a glossy tile floor and a carpet, meanwhile I'm testing on vinyl floor with hard wood-like texture. Not sure if your floor type affects the navigation. As the AIVI 3D uses camera to analyze object as obsticales. The reflection of the object from the glossy floor surface may create a "mirage" confusing the X2 object recognition system. If you disable AIVI 3D on glossy floor, maybe it would solve the problem, but kind of defeat the purpose being one of the major flagship features.

I've let the X2 Omni runs to different parts of my home and re-map the whole home several times to ensure I have the best coverage. Initially it misses one room and there is no way it can reach that spot due to bad initial map. I have deleted the map and then ensure all area must be light up bright enough during the new re-mapping. Also I've let the machine run more rounds the home and it is more efficient with more cycles. The Square Shape design does cause more fiddling to move around at tight spaces. In terms of mopping, it knows how to back up further so that the mop pads can reach out to narrow places as well near the edges. Also WiFi signal is not as great compare to a smartphone. You might loss signal if you are too far away from your router. I would recommend to use a WiFi Mesh system because it resolves many of the signal issues. So try to update your unit see if it improves your problem.

This is the last deebot i will be buying. I attempted to return. Unfortunately it was Day 31 therefore one day too late! It's brush has gotten tangled and destroyed cause it turns on a cord guard. Really could have been a decent vacuum if they had put good software with it.

This looks so so confused, leaving half of the area. And surely it didnt like ur carpet..sniffed it and ran away 😅

I jut got mine yesterday and its soo bad its just turning around its self and the battery doesn't even enough to clean the living room.

I like the design of the X2, but in this price range the Dreame L20 Ultra has way more features. I went with the L20.

[BlazingNina]

I’ve heard terrible things bout the x2 Omni! I went to Dreame and it’s been good so far!

[forkedMuffin]

Does it sound louder and more annoying pitch? I don't think my q8 Revo make such an annoying noise

[ImperialDog]

seems like Omni robot software or ai always got bug...and round robot seems to be better...

[shaezee-pajama]

Is the T20 omni a better choice or the dreame L20 ultra ?

[Mandrake]

They thought putting the LiDAR on the side of the robot would be smart…

[Torigum]

No software update still now? I think they will release soon, is just software problem, they can fix it, it’s not normal, x2 is worst of x1 atm. I think after the patch x2 will be the best.

[ATDistinction]

Mine does the same, it stop when approaching a shadow or sunshine thinking it’s an object….

[aaron_]

It has to spin frequently, that is how its fixed Lidar works. Once the room is fully mapped and saved, it should spin much less.

LoL I didn't click preorder yet I have discounts to bring down to $1100 shipped but as I suspected the software issue

How could a flagship robot be delivered with a problematic software issue ?

Meh I am happy with my T8+ with pro mop module mechanically working since 2020 zero software issue, just the navigation Ecovacs software never improves or correct their problem!

Ecovacs is best for hardware but software issues
Roborock is ok software but hardware is no good for reliable durable
Dreame is ok for both, hardware ready to fail after 12 month 90% sure!!

[mcfly]

Apparently the AI feature is still not great and it’s best to turn it off until it’s updated. Have you tried that?

[jarmuzz]

Ive been thinking of buying this one or the T20. I cant find any english reviews for this model, with the exception of your shorts.
