While both the L35 and X8 series are eufy’s flagship RoboVac models at the current stage, it is highly recommended to read through the following details in order to determine which one of these two RoboVac series is the most suitable for your cleaning needs.
Navigation and Mapping Technology
Both the L35 and X8 series use iPath navigation to clean in a Z-shaped path, and they also have the ability to store multiple cleaning maps and use the maps for future cleaning sessions. When cleaning, both the L35 and X8 series utilize a lidar sensor to scan the surroundings to precisely create a map, navigate, and clean. Additionally, both models implement the SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) Algorithm to intelligently plan their cleaning route to cover areas that need to be cleaned.
What Are the Advantages of the X8 Series?
While both the X8 and L35 series models are similar in their core technology, listed below are the advantages that the X8 series models have over the L35 series models.
- The Number of Maps Saved: The X8 series models support saving up to five different maps, which is more than the L35 series models which can only save up to three maps. However, this should not be a deciding factor if you do not need to save more than three maps.
What Are the Advantages of the L35 Series?
While both the X8 and L35 series models are similar in their core technology, listed below are the advantages that the L35 series models have over the X8 series models.
- Auto-Empty Station: The L35 series models work with the Auto-Empty Station, which allows you to have a hassle-free experience without having to manually remove and empty the dust collector after your RoboVac completes each cleaning cycle. Additionally, the Auto-Empty Station is equipped with a 3-liter dust bag that only needs to be cleaned out once every 60 days if you run the RoboVac once per day.
- Child Safety Lock: The L35 series models have a new Child Safety Lock feature, which locks the touch buttons on top of the RoboVac to prevent the RoboVac from accidentally starting after buttons are pressed or stepped on by your child or pet. Please visit How do I enable/disable the Child Lock feature? for more information.
- Adjustable Mopping Water Level: Unlike the X8 Hybrid model, the L35 series Hybrid models have the ability to adjust three different water levels suitable for different types of floors. Please visit How to achieve an optimal mopping result when using eufy RoboVac LR30/L35 series for detailed information.
- Wheels Climbing Height: The wheels on the L35 series models have a higher threshold of climbing height compared to the X8 series models, which allows the RoboVac to climb over a door sill that does not exceed 0.78 in / 20 mm in height without having any potential difficulties.
- Customized Cleaning: The L35 series models provide the flexibility for you to configure cleaning settings from different cleaning modes to cleaning sequences for each room, which can be customized according to each room’s floor types and cleaning needs. Please visit How to Customize Cleaning Parameters for detailed information.
Which RoboVac Model Is Better?
The correct answer truly depends on what you are aiming for when you purchase a RoboVac, and it boils down to which features matter the most to you. For example, if you prefer having a hassle-free cleaning experience without having to manually remove and empty the dust collector after each cleaning cycle, then either the LR30 Hybrid+ or L35 Hybrid+ model is clearly the right choice for you! On the other hand, if you need to save more than three maps, then either the X8 or X8 Hybrid will be the best option depending on if you also need the mopping feature.
Additionally, please refer to the following RoboVac unboxing videos for more information:

Note: The Auto-Empty Station is included when you purchase either the LR30 Hybrid+ or L35 Hybrid+ model. However, it can be purchased separately to work with any of the L35 series models.
Overall, both the L35 and X8 series models will most certainly provide exceptional results when it comes to your cleaning needs, regardless of which model you end up choosing!
