Short answer?

Q5 Max+ leads on the AI ranking, reviewer scores, buyer ratings and a lower price; 360 Vis Nav doesn't take any single point outright — pick it only if those don't matter to you.

How this is made

Built from what 4 AI models (Claude · Perplexity · ChatGPT · Google-ai-mode) recommend for real buyer questions, layered with reviewer test summaries, Google buyer ratings, street prices and press. The short answer and verdict are derived from where those signals diverge — not written by hand for either product.

Q5 Max+
across 5 reviews

mixed
Reviewers praise
  • Strong suction and above-average carpet deep-cleaning performance
  • Reliable lidar navigation with accurate multi-room mapping and no-go zone support
  • Above-average battery life with automatic recharge-and-resume
Reviewers push back
  • Long human hair tangles heavily around the brush rolls and must be removed manually
  • No mopping capability, not even a basic attachment option on base configurations
  • Obstacle avoidance is limited — low objects below the lidar plane are frequently struck or pushed rather than avoided
A capable, no-frills lidar robot vacuum that cleans carpets and hard floors well and navigates reliably, held back by hair-tangling brush rolls and the absence of mopping.
— best for: Pet owners and busy households who want set-and-forget cleaning on mixed hard floors and carpets, and can tolerate occasional brush-roll maintenance for long hair.

On Q5 Max+: Hair wrap severity divides reviewers: one reviewer found pet hair evacuated cleanly in normal use, while another measured 70–90% of human hair tangling around the rolls rather than reaching the bin

Took advantage of the sale to add my 3rd VisNav to our home. Killer feature is ability to just drop it in a room, close the door and it vacs the whole space, then texts you when it's done. I don't care about mopping. The bin only needs emptying after every 4-5 uses. The app is quite good and intuitive. The unit is very well built. Love the full-length brush bar that makes quick work of the job. Ru miknet · dysoncanada.ca

I bought this Roborock Q10 S5+ with mopping and automatic emptying a week ago for my birthday present for myself and I’m just now opening the box and can I tell you that I fell in love with this vacuum it actually cleaned my whole entire house and it left it looking spotless. I didn’t know which Roborock vacuum that I wanted to purchase that didn’t cost a lot of money so my mind chose this model a Rockey 2025 · us.roborock.com
