WYBOT S2 Solar Vision Robotic Pool Cleaner

Our take

The WYBOT S2 Solar Vision Robotic Pool Cleaner is a cordless, battery-powered robotic pool cleaner from Wybot. It cleans the floor, walls and waterline, navigates in a systematic pattern rather than at random, using AI Vision camera debris detection, auto return-to-dock, and connects to its app over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. A charge lasts up to 150 minutes and takes about 3 hours to refill.

On paper it scores 8.2 out of 10 (great) against other robotic cleaners. Its strongest areas are pool size (10.0) and cleaning coverage (9.0). Where it gives ground: filtration (6.5). Heavy to lift out at 46.3 lb.

The best price we found is $1,599.99 at WYBOT, 20% off its $1,999.99 list price. The typical robotic cleaner we track costs $899, so this one is pricier than most. For what it does, its value score is 2.7 out of 10.

If you want mapping navigation, the cheapest we track with it is the Dreame Z1 Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner at $349.99.

If you want surface skimming, the cheapest we track with it is the Beatbot Sora 70 Robotic Pool Cleaner at $1,199.

To spend less for nearly the same spec score, the Beatbot AquaSense 2 Robotic Pool Cleaner rates 9.0 for $799.

For about the same money, the Aiper Scuba X1 Pro Max Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner scores higher (9.5) at $1,699.99.

Bottom line: a great pick for pools with no outlet near the deck, scheduling and checking on cleans from your phone and large pools.
