Follow-up after 2 days. I've used the robot quite a bit and monitored it. This is replacing a Dreame L10S Pro Gen 2.
It seems a fair bit more aggressive than the Dreame. It will go under my chair because it has internal Lidar. It avoids obstacles pretty much perfectly. However it doesn't seem quite as "smart" while navigating as the Dreame. It kind of got confused in my office chair and had to bump around in there quite a bit. But this thing also apparently uses AI to learn, so I assume it will get better. It is extremely thorough with the mopping. The app is also very polished and gorgeous. Overall very happy with it and it is a 10x upgrade over the Dreame.
I had the dreame l10s pro gen 3 and the navigation was better but it lacked the extending brush and mop and it had a smaller watertank so it couldn't do my downstairs area without filling it up midway through it's run.
If corner leaning isn't your top priority, I would go for the Dreame l10s pro gen 3 and buy a tricut brush with it for the long hair. Temu or Aliexpress have verry good tricut brushes.
Check out my review of the Xiaomi S40 Pro.

I want the new dreamy cuz I liked the battery life of my x40 my Z is okay but I can't vacuum and mop whole house.. and right now my Roomba has decided to come out on its own and vacuum for me?! LOL
Thank you! I eventually ordered a Dreame l10s Pro, but I have some doubts, particularly after seeing videos like this

It's also an Ultra version of Dreame so not entirely accurate for my case. But I think that suction power is more or less the same for l10s Pro and S8. Not sure if it's accurate.
Actually Roborock S8 and even S8 Pro would have comparable price in Armenia, and I could stretch a little bit and order Q8 Max+. But I thought that rotating mops would be somewhat better in most situations. Also, I don't have carpets.

Reliable, great mopping (lifts pads), but poor cable avoidance.
