DEEBOT X11, X12 and X12S: OmniCyclone or Pro Omni?

Published · By the BotLineup editors · Prices and specs as of that date, from the pages under Sources

Summary

ECOVACS sells the X11 and X12 in OmniCyclone and Pro Omni versions. On the pages checked, the X11 OmniCyclone and X12 OmniCyclone docks are bagless and the X11 Pro Omni dock uses a 2.5 L bag. The X12S comparison here covers the Pro Omni; confirm other available variants with ECOVACS. Moving from X11 to X12 to X12S changes the mop, brush, navigation and dock features ECOVACS lists. Store prices checked in October 2026 varied by store and color, sometimes by more than the gap between models.

What changes from X11 to X12 to X12S

The specification comparison uses ECOVACS's X11 and X12 OmniCyclone pages and its X12S Pro Omni page. The X12 Pro Omni's specifications remain unconfirmed, so its prices are shown later without assuming it shares the OmniCyclone's hardware.

The X12S Pro Omni page lists these dock features: "Fresh-flow Power Washing," "dirty water box auto cleaning," "scheduled dirty water tank heating," "Air-Path Auto Drying" and "touch-free Auto-Empty." ECOVACS gives a mop-wash water temperature of 100 °C for the X12S Pro Omni and 75 °C for the X11 Pro Omni.

OmniCyclone or Pro Omni within each

A bagless dock empties debris into a bin you dump yourself. A bagged dock seals debris in a bag you replace, which adds a recurring purchase.

On the X11, the two versions have the same suction, mop and navigation listings. The differences ECOVACS lists are in the dock and brushes. The X11 Pro Omni has a 2.5 L dust bag, and its page says the dual cleaning solutions are "sold separately." The X11 Pro Omni also lists an extendable mop and a 254-minute runtime. The X11 OmniCyclone is bagless, lists a "detachable cleaning tank" and "auto refill with hot water (station to deebot)," and adds an "ARClean Side Brush" and "Cyclone-Directed Roller Brush." We have not confirmed a plumbing hookup for automatic refill and drain on either X11.

The X12 OmniCyclone empties into a 1.6 L bin rated by ECOVACS for "up to 48 days of operation on average." Its dock also washes with heated water and dries with hot air. Confirm the unverified X12 Pro Omni dock and specifications before paying more for that version.

Prices by store

Each price is the listed price at that store on the date shown, and all listings were new.

At ECOVACS on 2026-10-23, the X12 OmniCyclone was $1,099.99 − $899.99 = $200 less than the X11 OmniCyclone. On the X11, ECOVACS charged $1,099.99 − $999.99 = $100 more for the OmniCyclone than for the Pro Omni.

Which one is enough

If you want a bagless dock, the X12 OmniCyclone has the newer listed mop, brush and navigation. Its lowest store price checked was $799 at Walmart on 2026-10-07. The X11 OmniCyclone cost more at ECOVACS and Best Buy, but at Amazon it was the cheaper of the two: $1,099.99 against $1,274.99 for the X12 OmniCyclone, checked 2026-10-13.

If you prefer a sealed bag and want to pay less, the X11 Pro Omni at $749 at Walmart on 2026-10-07 was the lowest price checked among these models. It lacks the OZMO ROLLER 3.0 mop and ZeroTangle 4.0 brush that ECOVACS lists for the X12 OmniCyclone and X12S Pro Omni.

For dock features, the X12S Pro Omni adds maker-listed hotter mop washing and dirty-water tank heating, alongside a 15 mm mop lift. The White version at $959 at Best Buy on 2026-10-07 cost $959 − $799 = $160 more than the X12 OmniCyclone at Walmart.
