Neato D8 cleans all floor types, this feature comes in handy, since different rooms within a home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is stated able to clean all types of floors, this means that the vacuum is capable to effectively clean flooring materials without any significant issues.
Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni aslo cleans all floor types, meaning it is designed to be versatile, providing effective cleaning performance on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. The vacuum's ability to create a digital map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g. the Neato D8 having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not. Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the space.
Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't. Neato D8 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's way, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its environment, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and Neato D8 is one of them. These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up to prevent the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. The Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in spaces where there are locations that you want to keep off-limits to the robot vacuum.

Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni comes with washable filters, the advantage of washable filters is that they can be cleaned and reused multiple times, reducing costs of replacing disposable filters, plus it's also good environmentally. The Neato D8's dustbin capacity is at 0.7L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it requires to be emptied.
The Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni, at 0.4L
carries less dirt than the Neato D8 by only 0.3L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among different robot vacuum models, and the size you choose should be based on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Most robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to notify users when the dustbin is full and needs to be emptied. Neato D8 supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged which means performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied.
Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to show that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it minimizes the need for constant monitoring. Neato D8 weighs 4.7kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and carrying around. The Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni, at 4.4kg
is lighter than the Neato D8 by 0.3kg.
It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when choosing a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Neato D8 has a width of 330mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni, at 362mm
measures more in width than the Neato D8 with a difference of 32mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room.
Neato D8's height measures 100mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni, at 103.5mm
measures more in height than the Neato D8 with a difference of 3.5mm.
When selecting a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can fit under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Neato D8's battery power is 2,100mAh
Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the Neato D8 by
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large space or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of the Neato D8 refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged. Neato D8's operating time is 1.7h
The Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni, at 4.3h
