Based on a review by TechUtopia (accessed 2026-06-24).
Based on this review alone: buy it if you care about 15,000 pascals of suction power — just accept fewer smart features compared to competitors, such as less advanced obstacle avoidance, no mop extension, no apple watch support, and no multi-floor mapping.
The reviewer concludes that while the Roborock Qrevo S5V is capable, especially for edge mopping and extra smart features, the Eufy Omni C28 is the clear winner for everyday cleaning performance. The C28 is recommended for handling hair, spills, carpet debris, and pet messes due to its stronger suction, advanced self-cleaning roller mop, and superior hair-focused brush system.
This review provides a side-by-side comparison of the Eufy Omni C28 and Roborock Qrevo S5V robot vacuums. The reviewer tests both models across various aspects including mopping, hair pickup, carpet cleaning, suction power, and navigation features. The primary goal is to determine which robot vacuum offers better everyday cleaning performance and overall value.
The Eufy Omni C28 is the clear winner for everyday cleaning and value, excelling particularly in handling pet messes and spills. Its HydroJet self-cleaning roller mop is constantly rinsed with fresh water and scraped up to nine times per second during mopping, preventing residue spread, while the DuoSpiral Detangle brushes effectively pick up hair and guide it inwards without tangles. However, the Roborock Qurevo S5V offers more smart features like advanced obstacle avoidance and Apple Watch support. If you prioritize superior cleaning performance for hair, spills, and carpet debris with minimal maintenance, this robot vacuum is a solid choice. If advanced smart features and specific edge mopping are more important, you might consider alternatives.

The C28's HydroJet system constantly rinses the roller with fresh water, uses 24 precision water jets, 10 Newton downward pressure, and a scraper cleaning the roller up to nine times per second. This design prevents dirty mop pads from spreading residue, making it more convincing for real wet messes.

The Eufy C28 uses DuoSpiral Detangle brushes that pick up hair, guide it inwards, and open when returning to the station for dock suction. It also features dual side brushes for wider pickup coverage.
measurement_testpositive
The C28 delivers approximately 1.5 times better edge coverage than single side-brush models like the Roborock S5V, due to its dual side brushes and round-the-square body design.

The Roborock S5V uses precise LiDAR and structured light obstacle avoidance, while the Eufy C28 uses iPath 2.0 laser navigation for efficient routes without cameras.
The reviewer states that the Eufy Omni C28 is a 'big win for Eufy' for pet homes and anyone with long hair. Its DuoSpiral Detangle brushes pick up hair, guide it inward, and then open to allow the dock to suction it away, actively preventing tangles. This system is more aggressive and effective compared to the Roborock Qrevo S5V's Zero-Tangle system.
The Eufy Omni C28 uses a unique HydroJet self-cleaning roller mop that is constantly rinsed with fresh water and scraped during cleaning, preventing dirty water from spreading residue. This makes it more effective for wet kitchen messes. In contrast, the Roborock Qrevo S5V uses dual spinning mops which do not self-clean during washing, though it excels in edge cleaning with its FlexiArm Edge mopping.
The Eufy Omni C28 boasts a clear advantage with 15,000 pascals of suction, while the Roborock Qrevo S5V offers 12,000 pascals. The reviewer emphasizes that higher suction is crucial for effective carpet cleaning, especially for embedded dust, pet hairs, and crumbs. The C28 also automatically boosts suction on carpets, further improving its performance.
For vacuuming, the Eufy C28 delivers about 1.5 times better edge coverage than models like the Roborock S5V due to its dual side brushes and 'round-the-square' body design, which helps it get closer to walls and corners. For mopping, the Roborock S5V has a significant advantage with its FlexiArm Edge mopping.
Both robot vacuums feature sophisticated all-in-one docks that provide auto-dust emptying, mop washing, water refilling, and warm air drying capabilities, making them equally convenient in this aspect.
The reviewer notes that the Roborock Qrevo S5V feels more feature-packed with advanced smart capabilities like obstacle avoidance, mop extension, Apple Watch support, and multi-floor mapping. Its navigation system uses precise LiDAR and structured light obstacle avoidance. The Eufy C28 uses iPath 2.0 laser navigation, which is efficient but the Roborock is deemed superior in overall smart features.
