The Saros 10 is meant to be the successor to the previous flagship, the S8 MaxV Ultra.
Lets start with the basic.
Other than that, it has cameras up front in between its bump sensors.

Roborock Saros 10
The Saros 10 is good, but the Saros 10R is better.
It looks a bit more futuristic, but it also sticks out a bit more.
Its also pretty large at 18.5 inches tall, 16.1 inches wide, by 17.3 inches deep.

The bot and dock are available either in black or white.
It did well with small bits, too, like flecks of dried oregano and cracker crumbs.

Setup was pretty straight-forward.

It then completed mapping of my whole one-bedroom apartment in roughly 10 minutes.
The map did require some editing, though.
The mirrors on my closet doors made it think there was another room that didnt exist.

The Saros 10s object recognition seems to be a marginal improvement over the Qrevo Curv.
It maneuvered around shoes and slippers no problem.
It also avoided slurping up a sock off the carpet, like the Curv did.

So, why do I say nobody should buy this vacuum over the 10R?
Like, fatal-flaw bad, as far as Im concerned.
