I've used the S5 MAX for 3 years. My 4 bedrooms are carpeted and the living room has an 8x10' area rug. I have an Australian Shepherd who sheds a LOT! The S5 Max's single roller brush with bristles picks up the hair well, but gets dog hair wrapped around it a lot, including at the ends, and the dustbin fills up quickly, so that I have to pause vacuuming after each two rooms to empty it. So, I decided to get the 8+ for its auto-emptying feature (mopping isn't that important to me). I really looked forward to using it, especially the auto-emptying, even if I still had to stop the vac every two rooms so that it could return to dock and empty. BUT, I was severely disappointed to find that the S8+ won't even pick up the dog hair on carpet, certainly not much of it. The clumps are still there on the carpet after vacuuming, even if I do a room 3 times! So I would either have to pick up the hair clumps before or after vacuuming. The vac does auto-empty fine, but it didn't make my effort during vacuuming any more successful or easier. So, I returned the S8+ today. Its 2 roller brushes, which lack bristles, just don't do a good job of picking up dog hair. I didn't assess its performance on non-carpeted areas, because the hair was more visible on carpet. I have no reason to think any of the other S8 models would do any better, and I don't know of a self-emptying vac from another brand that would be any better, either. If any of you do, please let me know.
Crazy right? I’m from Belgium and it’s hard to pick. The S8 is clearly better but so expensive. They now released the Q8 Max + which has better obstacle avoidance. I’m thinking about getting that.
The AI voiceovers need to stop. Trying to pass them off as new hosts when you did your channel update video feels even more dishonest. You'll lose subs hand over fist if your video quality continues to slip like this. Unsubscribed.

Nice comparison! (Although I think your normal voice is just fine. No need for an AI voiceover)
Thank you!
Yup normal voice was great. Feels a bit weird now but at least content is of same quality, thanks!
It’s not ai
"The price is being so simular". Well here in the Netherlands the S8+ is double the price off the Q7 Max+.

Even in the test it's like 50% more. I feel the conclusions of the tests are contradictory to what is shown. The Q7 is much better.
After extensive research these last few days I finally decided on the s8+!!
I hope you enjoy it!
Now that the Q8 Max is out, the only difference is the vibrating and lifting mop I think, right?
obstacle avoidance so it doesn't smear dog poop all over your house....LOL
how they they compare with hair tangles?
As mentioned in comments already, S8+ has almost double the price of Q7+ your Amazon link to S8+ shows different robot.
Also curious about Q8 Max+ that is now at $599 with promotion
If you have the q7 max docking station, can you use the same docking station for s8?
i dont believe so
The price now has made the Q7 max a much much better deal...
Bad link provided for Amazon.
4:54 that's not true at all. You cannot upgrade the dock....
Yes you can stop lying

It's not an AI voice.
Why do you care man? I just want to learn about the vacuum cleaner. Doesnt really matter who or what tells me the information, as long as its correct.
Nothing wrong with that voice.
