Roborock Saros 10 robotic vacuum cleaner review

The Roborock Saros 10 robotic vacuum cleaner is the premium product from the company that just launched in Ireland recently however there is cheaper models avaiable which is great for the consumer giving them choice and a product for their needs which is something I like.

If you want to keep your floors clean this includes those who have pets this is the machine you need full stop and it worked perfeclty during my testing and there was lots to test on this.

The unit itself is an average size compared to other vacuums we have tested here and fits nicely in any spot in your room once set up as you will see in the full hands-on demo below it is simpe to use. It also looks like a premium device and that it is with what it can do.

The Roborock app is excellent one of the best I have used for such a product in along time and once set up the vacuum leaves its docks scans the rooms and comes back and is ready to rock. There is some buttons on the vacuum itself but I think you will find there is no need to only for setting up.

The navigation process is fun to watch this can go onto multiple levels like carpets or door dividers for example and it avoid obsticles with great accuarcy in the video below you will see it put to the test and watch it not touch a press door or anything it is super precise in what it does.

There is also a built in camera that can be used at home or remotley with the ability to speak through it and this is excellent and could also be used to keep an eye on things should you wish the speaker is crystal clear and the video feedback very clear with little buffering, this may depend on your internet connection and time of day.

There is also a remote control on board which is fun to you so if you are bored you can clean the entire house yourself with your mobile phone which defeats the purpose but it is great to have and I love it and we need to see more of this, recently I done a garden mower with the same feature.

There is two brushes underneath a cloth base and arm and of course a big brush all these work well in tandem and give good results after putting dirt on the floor, with some vacuums the main sweeper brush tended to push dirt away but not with the Saros 10 it picked up and cleaned everything.

Check out the video below for a proper look and what the Roborock Saros 10 can do you will be impressed and to date the best robotic vacuum I have tried, it might seem expensive for some but this is worthy of the expense and the company taking things to a new level.

The Roborock App

 

Features

Designed to redefine what a premium robot vacuum can be, Saros 10 combines ultra-slim engineering, powerful suction, intelligent navigation, and advanced dock automation. With industry-leading obstacle handling, precision mopping, and one of the quietest cleaning performances Roborock has ever achieved, Saros 10 delivers a truly next-level, hands-free cleaning experience.

Ultra-Thin 7.98cm Design with RetractSense™ Navigation

The RetractSense™ Navigation System lowers the LDS sensor to pass through low-clearance spaces and raises it again in open areas, enabling the slimmest Roborock design yet at just 7.98cm. Built for durability, this system is rated for tens of thousands of cycles and thousands of testing hours.

Advanced LiDAR Vision & Smart Height Detection

A wide-angle vision module ensures the LDS sensor maintains a broad field of view even when retracted, preventing mapping loss in tight spaces. The upward range finder and top contact sensor intelligently measure clearance height in real time, helping Saros 10 avoid forced entry and reduce the risk of surface scratches.

AdaptiLift™ Chassis for Barrier Crossing

Featuring the industry-first AdaptiLift™ Chassis, Saros 10 can overcome thresholds up to 4cm high. By lifting its omni wheels and drive wheels, the robot automatically adapts its crossing strategy, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted cleaning across doorways and uneven surfaces.

Chassis Lifting for High-Pile Carpets

When cleaning high-pile carpets, Saros 10 elevates its chassis by up to 10mm to reduce suction port blockages caused by long fibres. This feature can be enabled via the Roborock App for optimal performance.

DuoDivide® Dual Anti-Tangle Brush System

The DuoDivide® main brush transports collected hair to the centre inlet, where a differential brush speed strips and separates bundled hair before powerful suction removes it. Paired with the FlexiArm Riser side brush, the system achieves a 0% hair tangling rate, even in pet-heavy environments.

FlexiArm Riser Side Brush for Complete Edge Cleaning

The asymmetrical spiral side brush uses centrifugal force to direct debris toward the suction inlet, while a soft rubber baffle prevents hair from wrapping. Longer bristles increase coverage, and the brush automatically retracts after lifting to avoid furniture collisions.

22,000Pa HyperForce® Suction

Delivering up to 22,000Pa of HyperForce® suction power, Saros 10 provides exceptional debris pickup and achieves a 100% hair removal rate on carpets under test conditions.

VibraRise® 4.0 Mopping System

The VibraRise® 4.0 mopping system features a denser, more absorbent mop with dual sonic vibration zones operating up to 4,000 vibrations per minute. With up to 8N downward pressure and a 26% larger vibration area, it delivers superior stain removal on hard floors.

Automatic Mop Detaching & Independent Side Mop Lifting

In modes where mopping is not needed, such as Vacuum Only or Vacuum Carpets First, the vibrating mop automatically detaches to keep carpets dry. The edge mop can also lift independently, lowering only when detected near edges to deliver precise edge-cleaning performance.

Reactive AI 3.0 Obstacle Recognition

Saros 10 combines triple structured light, an RGB camera, and VertiBeam™ lateral structured light to recognise obstacles with minimal blind spots. Millisecond-level response and precise side-distance measurement allow the robot to clean close to objects while maintaining excellent obstacle avoidance.

RockDock® Ultra 2.0 – Fully Automated Maintenance

The RockDock® Ultra 2.0 handles automatic mop washing with dynamic water temperatures up to 80°C, auto mop detaching, heated air drying up to 60°C, auto dust emptying, detergent dispensing, tank refilling, and dock self-cleaning. The dock also charges a 6,400mAh battery in as little as 150 minutes.

SmartPlan® 2.0 & Quiet Cleaning

SmartPlan® 2.0 adapts cleaning strategies based on room type and usage history. During Do-Not-Disturb periods, Saros 10 lowers power and noise to deliver one of the quietest Roborock cleaning experiences, with performance as low as 52 dB(A) in Quiet Mopping Mode.

Advanced App, Smart Home & Pet-Friendly Features

Control everything through the Roborock App with support for Matter, Apple Home (via OTA), Google Home, and Amazon Alexa. Pet-friendly features include automatic pet recognition, quiet cleaning, real-time video calls, pet snapshots, and intelligent pet search functionality.

Viltrox Brings AI Autofocus to Manual Lenses with NexusFocus F1

Viltrox is pleased to announce NexusFocus, a new autofocus solution for manual lenses. The NexusFocus F1 is a compact, lightweight adapter that fits unobtrusively in between the lens and the camera body. The system is compatible with Sony E-mount cameras and PL-mount Cine and CineMod lenses. It takes advantage of Sony’s powerful phase-detection system and AI subject recognition, and leverages those native capabilities of the camera to drive motors for aperture, focus and zoom adjustments, thus revitalizing manual lenses with powerful autofocus capabilities.

NexusFocus gives vintage lens enthusiasts, solo operators, and small film crews unprecedented creative freedom. Freed from the constraints of manual focusing and LiDAR’s parallax limitations, creators can enjoy cinematic-level imaging, with effortless control and precision.

Quick set up and versatile lens control

With fast synchronized motor control of focus, iris, and zoom (FIZ), users gain complete command of every lens movement. The responsive autofocus lets solo operators and small crews work efficiently on set.

The Viltrox NexusFocus mobile app allows for effortless setup, with a wide range of lens calibration profiles ready-to-go. The system automatically detects calibration status on startup, so users can just mount the adapter, power on, and start creating (automatic calibration is currently only available on the iOS app version).

The app also provides Bluetooth wireless control with smartphones and iPads, allowing limitless camera placement options and versatile single-user operation. The adapter features a clear backlit status display panel on top, so users can instantly check the operating mode and lens data.

Tough and compact design, with powerful performance

Compact, but with powerful performance, the motor responds with remarkable speed and precision. The standard USB type-C power port offers broad compatibility with professional equipment, and seamless connectivity. The motor is powered by an external source to ensure reliable operation. The dust-resistant seal at the camera mount end of the adapter protects equipment and preserves image integrity. The unit’s durable but lightweight aluminum alloy and stainless steel construction ensures reliability and a long operating life. A detachable tripod mount allows for flexible support.
