Airbot Vacuum Cleaner Comparison

Let’s start this Airbot vacuum cleaner review off with an overview table of the 3 popular models from Airbot.

Of these specifications, suction pressure (kPa) is the main specification to compare.

For your reference:

• 1kPa – just enough for dust
• 9kPa – picks up hair and dust
• ~15kPa – small debris gets picked up too

Airbot Hypersonics Review

From the table above, you can already tell that this is Airbot’s original flagship model, due to its powerful motor and extensive filtration system.

But let’s have a more in-depth review of the Airbot Hypersonics 27 kPa:

To start, the Airbot Hypersonics comes with the coveted dust mite brush, which is what you need to clear dust mites from your mattress and sofa!

Although the battery capacity is the same as the other models at 2200mAh:

Do note that the more powerful motor means it uses more power too, only lasting around 30 minutes on auto mode.

When in auto mode, the in-built dust and carpet sensors allows the vacuum cleaner to determine if more power is needed (it will adjust accordingly)!

The Airbot Hypersonics’ also has the ability to pick up pet fur or hair from the carpet!

Pros:

• Only slightly pricier than the other models
• Fluffy cleaner head attachment has been improved
• Straight flow design
• Battery sensor allows the vacuum to monitor and optimize power usage
• Sophisticated filtration system
• Largest bin capacity of the range

Cons:

• Heavier than the other 2 models
• Quite loud at the highest speed (noisiest model)

Airbot Hypersonics Pro

The successor to the Airbot Hypersonics, the Airbot Hypersonics Pro offers a notable upgrade over the original option at a cheaper price point as well!

First off, the new additions to the Hypersonics Pro includes:

An LED Touch Control Panel that offers easier control inputs and more extensive information displays (e.g., battery level, vacuum mode, speed indicator, dust levels, etc).

As well as an Infrared Dust Sensor, which detects the dust particles entering the vacuum, and automatically adjusts the speed for more efficient cleaning (and battery usage).

What’s more, the Hyerpsonics Pro includes a more advanced 6-Stage Cyclone Filter with HEPA and a slightly more powerful motor (450W, 110,000RPM vs 420W, 100,00RPM a 7.1% and 10% increase respectively).

Other than that, the Hypersonics Pro still retains the same battery (at 2,200mAh), suction pressure (27kPa) bin size and weight as the old model, although it does not come with the Dust Mite Brush accessory.

All-in-all, it’s definitely a step above the original version, and if you are willing to fork out a little extra for a high-quality handheld vacuum, the Hypersonics Pro is what you should be getting.

Pros:

• Touch-screen controls and display
• More robust 6-stage filtration system (compared to the original’s 5-stages)
• Automatic vacuum power adjustments based on dust levels
• Cyclone design for quieter running
• Good suction power
• Slightly cheaper when compared to the original Hypersonics

Cons:

• Dust mite brush not included, unlike the original Hypersonics
• Still pricier than the other models on the list
• As heavy as the old model, weighing in at 2.4kg
• Wheels on the front tend to trap hair and fur over time
• Can’t stand on it’s own
• Boost mode can be quite loud

Airbot Supersonics Review

The red Airbot Supersonics is still lighter and doesn’t use as much power (Or generate as much heat) as the Hypersonics!

While still providing sufficient power to suck dust and hair from your floor and carpet! Though with some notable struggle when it comes to carpets.

It does have a power mode and in this mode, the battery will only last around 10-15 minutes.

Pros:

• Not as noisy as the Hypersonics
• Cheaper than the Hypersonics
• Lightweight
• Adequate suction power
• Comparable quality to the Dyson V8

Cons:

• No significant improvement from the iRoom model
• Floor brush can be hard to clean
• Top-heavy build makes it hard to handle for some
• Only runs for a max of 20 minutes at full power before needing to charge.

Airbot iRoom 2.0 Review

If your goal is to pick up hair from the floor:

You’ll be able to without switching to the power mode with the purple Airbot iRoom!

The new version of the iRoom, Airbot’s iRoom 2.0 is a notably lighter package, being nearly half the weight of the original iRoom (only 1.4kgVS the originals 1.6kg, a 13% decrease)!

Because of that, the iRoom retains its advantage as the lightest of the 3 Airbot models, the original version was already lighter than the Dyson Slim model (~2.1kg).

In addition to the pros of the former iRoom – easy operation, good maneuverability and suction power (it picks up more dust than you expect):

It also has an improved BLDC motor, shorter charging times, as well as an improved filtration system, consisting of a HEPA, sponge and metal filter.

While those are the positives, there are some compromises:

1. The smaller battery (at only 2,000mAh compared to the original’s 2,200mAh)
2. Shorter operating times:

That being said its overall upgrades and exceptional lightness make it a great hand vacuum for hard-to-reach places.

However, the shorter operating times and smaller dust capacity make it more suitable for smaller homes. And you still won’t get the dust mite head or flexible tube together with the vacuum.

Pros:

• Exceptionally lightweight at only 1.4kg, suitable for petite users
• Improved BLDC Motor
• Improved filtration system
• Cheapest Airbot model available
• Suction power good enough to suck up hair and dust
• Works on carpets too

Cons:

• Very short operating times; requires frequent recharging
• Smaller battery compared to the original
• Dust mite head and flexible tube sold separately
