Xiaomi - S20+

Currently using S10+ Also bought the s20 when it was on sale

Can you check if your mops are wet enough or one mop is dryer than the other? Mine S20+ right mop is much more dry when mopping.

You won't get more features in this price range. I was also thinking about getting an X20+, but I think those stations introduce too much complexity and possible sources of error, and you still have to take care of cleaning the dirty water all the time. So yeah, can't wait for my S20+ to arrive.

Also from Brazil, I just got the Xiaomi S20+ (without warranty, from paraguay) and I am loving it, paid R$ 2k for it. My apartment is also polished porcelain and about 100 m², the effective cleaning area is about 67m². It is very good at picking up hair and mopping. About object avoidance I cant pass judgment yet because so far I have always removed everything from the floor to make the cleaning as thorough as possible. but it is very good at avoiding furniture's legs. Regarding the warranty, I didnt worry much, parts supply on aliexpress is very good, and I am very used to fixing my own electronics. But even so, specialized repair shops are popping up everywhere (here in Brazil).

Got the xiaomi s20+ recently and have been very satisfied. My apartment is the ideal condition for ir though, polished porcelain tiles throughout and a single small carpet in the bedroom. It vacuums better then my regular vacuum and the mop is enough to get rid of cooking droplets and coffee stains in the kitchen. It covers 67 m² vacuuming before mopping (the slowest process) within 2 hours, and with about half battery left.

I was waiting for Xiaomi S20+ or Dreame L10s pro gen 2, but a few days ago the Xiaomi got discounted to €280 and went for it.

Where I live it's 300 normally.

I have an S20+ and tested on a rug, got rotated multiple times by getting the rug slip, and it found its way nicely. I guess the same applies to the X20+ too.

It can lift the mops and also vacuum without the mops attached. About the size I need to check.

Hi all, I wanted to provide a quick review of my Xiaomi S20+, I picked this thing up new for CHF 240 or around USD 290. Prior to purchasing I was torn between this standalone S20+ and the X20+ which comes with a full docking station, my issue was that I really didn't want an enormous knee height unit taking up space. I live in a 1 bedroom apartment which has wooden floor in the bedroom and tiles everywhere else. Initially I let it go around mapping my rooms after moving all of the furniture out of the way, then I set it off on it's first clean. I've just moved into this place and I guess that the landlord hadn't cleaned under the bed, the amount of dirt and dust it found under there was actually incredible. I guess I did what everyone does when they get a robot vacuum and threw a bunch of junk on the floor and deliberately spilled some coffee. It immediately did an excellent job of vacuuming but I found it didn't quite get the coffee up, this was solved by letting it add more water to the mop heads. After a week of playing around I not have it set up so it vacuums 4 days a week and does a vacuum then mop the other 3, this is a nice balance as it means you don't have to refill the water often and can get away with cleaning the mop heads once a week. It hasn't had any issues navigating and seems to have good obstacle detection, it did get a little stuck on my weighing scales so I just remember to keep them somewhere more sensible. It's been nice to come home to a vacuumed apartment, walking around barefooted on a tiled floor you can feel anything that shouldn't be there, now it's just nice to walk around and not wonder if you just stepped in toast crumbs. Anyway, super affordable and great for little places, refillable tank so it doesn't have to return to a station often when mopping. I suspect i'll still have to get in and properly vacuum and mop corners and edges, but this will be great for maintaining things mid-week while I can't be bothered.

Xiaomi S20+ is great. Reliable and has power to handle all types of floor.

I ran my old combo Xiaomi on the vacuum + mop mode as it couldn’t just mop by itself and with regular use, the motor became much louder.

Xiaomi models made by dreame would be good. I had the Xiaomi S10+ as a housewarming gift and it worked great. You can use it with the dreame TriCut brush so fur will no longer get tangled with the brush. It’s cheap to get the real one on AliExpress. The price varies a lot by region though. It’s not very good at avoiding cables but good at mopping up my dog’s drool (you have to clean the mops afterward and dampen it before any mopping run). You could also consider the S20+ if you’d like it to be able to lift its mops. Both aren’t the best at obstacle avoidance as they are dreame models with some features castrated like a RGB camera for AI computer vision. It worked well at avoiding my dog’s decently big toys (4cm tall on the ground). If you want better obstacle avoidance you can look to the original dreame models like the Dreame L10s Pro Gen 2 Robot Vacuum (LDS only and 299). If you want an auto empty dock (recommended for shedding friends), you could look to Roborock’s Q5 Max+ or the Dreame L10s Plus. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-robot-vacuum/

Xiaomi X20+ (369) is a model with an all in one station that can clean and dry its mops, rewet the mops, and autoempty the dust into a bigger dust bag. It’s rather hefty at about 13kg so I don’t think it’s very suitable for temporary-ish placements unless you happen to be very strong. For one without an all in one base station, You could also consider the Xiaomi S20+ (249). I think these are the best budget options as it is secretly able to deal with hair fur very well. It is compatible with the dreame TriCut brush (buy on aliexpress or Taobao) that uses hidden blades that move like a shaving razor every 23 rotations to cut off any tangled hair. It’s worked great for my long haired corgi. I also recommend asking it to vacuum first and then mop so no water and mud enters the vacuuming parts (ew and decreases the lifespan of the parts).

Xiaomi S10+ (no mop lift but it doesn’t matter since you’ll remove it but terrible obstacle avoidance) and the S20+ (should have better obstacle avoidance) are basically the same (also made by dreame) with Xiaomi customer support.

Xiaomi S10+ or S20+ or Dreame’s L10 Pro Gen 2. Even though both come with an internal water tank for mopping, you can simply remove the mops. I recommend these models as these models without an autoempty or all in one dock are compatible with the dreame TriCut brush which has worked brilliantly with long hair and long fur from my long haired corgi.

The S20+ will mop the best. Easily compatible with dreame and Xiaomi consumables. Roborock mops should also fit the S20+.

The Xiaomi S20+ (€299) will be able to vacuum and mop well but will have the same issue of trying to eat everything. Sadly there’s no autoempty dock. There’s also the X20 Pro (€539) which has a base station which will autoempty the dustbin, refill the water’s internal water tank, dampen, wash, and dry the mops. Obstacle avoidance performance is generally the same. Most robots in your price range will use only structured light for obstacle avoidance and this is generally worse than RGB camera enabled robots (software is the main factor deciding if obstacle avoidance is good for RGB enabled robots)

Xiaomi S10+ and S20+

I had a S10+ and it eventually broke down because of the mop water it was inhaling when vacuuming. It cannot mop only or vacuum first before mopping. Other users’ experiences matched my experience. I’d recommend the S20+ since it can vacuum first before mopping or just mop.

For budget models the s20+’s spinning mops will be better than a passive mop.

S20+ and the l10s ultra gen 2 are miles apart. I’d get the l10s ultra gen 2 since it’s at the same price. Same if you meant the X20+

Soy de Argentina también y me encontraba exactamente en la misma situación. A pesar de que la postventa de Xiaomi en Argentina es inexistente, todos lis productos de la marca que tuve y tengo me han dado muy buenos resultados. Yo me compré la s20+ hace una semana y estoy muy conforme con los resultados. Mi casa es de 110 m2 , tengo un perro que pierde mucho pelo y viene cumpliendo muy bien. Las mopas giratorias limpian incluso algunas manchas secas y borra completamente todas las marcas de pisadas con patas húmedas y sucias del perro. El primer mapeo fue excelente. La batería nunca llegó a la mitad, incluso luego de primero barrer/aspirar toda la casa y luego pasar las mopas en toda la casa en aprox hora y media. Ya me hice un pedido de consumibles por Aliexpres por 28 dolares. Si necesitás saber algo mas, avisame

Xiaomi s20+, with rotating mops

Both are good on vacuum pickup, Roborock S8 slightly better especially on carpet. Both pick up pet hair fairly well, but the Xiaomi tends to have more of it stuck on the brush making the maintenance more laborious compared to the Roborock. Both are similar in terms of navigation and mopping effectiveness despite the two different ways (vibration vs rotatory mopping). However, the Roborock mop only lifts by 5mm, the Xiaomi one by 7mm (for when the robot has to go over the carpet). Both have similar performances in obstacles avoidance, the Xiaomi with a line laser, the Roborock with a 3D dots projector, but Roborock has a slight edge on recognition of small objects (from the front) and Xiaomi on the following *along* small objects (from the side). Both have original consumables at very accessible prices from AliExpress. Roborock S8 is a bit more reliable. The Roborock S8 is more feature-rich, even though the Xiaomi app of the S20+ is handy if you already have other Xiaomi products. Bear in mind you'll have to empty the dust bin very often as neither of them has a self-emptying station. Dust bin and water tank sizes are similar (S8 400ml/300ml, S20+ 450ml/290ml). Overall, the Roborock S8 is a better designed and built product (by far in some areas, and not that much different in others). Not sure where you're based, but the main selling point of the Xiaomi S20+ in Europe is its price. At £179 it's much much cheaper than the Roborock S8 and it's the best robot vacuum available *at that price* with no exceptions. If you can/want to spend more, Roborock S8 is the better choice.

My xiaomi s20+ need 10cm, the dock is a little larger. So not sure there are slimmer models.

I just bought the Xiaomi s20+ without self emptying and after three days the bin was quite full even though my 1C vacuumed daily. I suspect it could be the higher vacuum power on the s20+. Makes think the self emptying might have been a good idea but it would have gotten clogged due to our amount of hair. In Malaysia, the S40C launched and I'm upset since I bought the s20+ last week. 🫤

I think the Xiaomi s20 without the + is sufficient if you don't need to mop. I got the s20+ with the rotary mops that I haven't used yet and the maps on 1c was good enough so the s20 will be sufficient. Plus it is compact sized. My s20+ battery only uses 1 bar to cover a large amount of space. So I think the s20 is sufficient. Get the s20.

This is why I am hesitating on the roborock q10 pf in my country. It is the q10 x5 in US. Will the spare parts be found in 3 years? Only if sales are good enough. The spare parts if too different may not be found so easily. Like the Dreame D20 (only with charging dock) in my country that is not the Dreame D20 Ultra in any way. And so far I have been unable to find the spare parts or know its equivalent elsewhere. For my Xiaomi 1C, I have managed to find parts to it. I have sent it in to get the wheels switched out under warranty, I have changed the filters and brushes at economical prices and I have switched out the batteries twice so far. The new ones are larger capacity but cause the robot vac to be a bit haywire. Perhaps I need to service the front wheel and clean the sensors? Either way, I am undecided between the roborock q10 PF and Xiaomi S20 or S20+. The S20 seems to fit my needs as a basic vacuum and is more compact allowing it to get into slightly tight areas but feels like just a little upgrade over my 1C that still works albeit haywire sometimes. It gets fixated on areas some times. I have put furniture risers ro accommodate the LiDar puck as that was the only hindrance on the new vacuums.

Hey did you resolved a problem? Mine s20+ has the same problem. Right mop is significantly dryier than left. 

I think if your main objective is just vacuuming, buying X20 is kind of overkill. The budget Xiaomi S20+ is decent and it has a spinning mop and a structured light obstacle avoidance, but it lacks a self-empty dock. Therefore, Q8 Max+ is a better choice in this regard. It is also equipped with a structured light obstacle avoidance and a dual contra-rotating roller that should give better carpet cleaning than a single brush.

Hello! You are right that the price is negligible. The selling point for me was the suction strength. 4000pa on the s10+ vs 600pa on the s20+. I only have tiled floors & others might say that a 4000pa is enought but.. It's a good feature to have nonetheless. And also that they're from the same series, the s10+ if I'm not mistaken was released in 2023 and that the s20+ was only released a few months ago and should benefit from some technological advances albeit minute. 😅

Hello! 1.I had some initial hiccups before the current software update where the house map doesn't show. This has been fixed with the current patch (released almost 1 month ago). 2. I had to connect to my phone Mobile Data for initial software (read this on Reddit too) because the update was failing because of my house Wi-Fi settings. Once the update finished, I restarted the network connection and connected the RoboVac to my Wi-Fi without any issues. This might have been fixed now so keep that in mind😊 3. No buyer's regret! I've been using it everyday and it works like a charm. I own a cat and the RoboVac sucks up the cat hair as intended. Hope this helps!

Mag s20+ ka na. The s20+ has lift able mop pads. 😊

I recently bought this and am very happy with it. Alternative model for me could have been the dreame l10s pro gen 2 which also has mop lift and carpet detection, but it’s way more expensive. There is nothing with these features in this price range except the s20+
