Head-to-head
eufy C28 vs ECOVACS T80S OMNI: C28 avoided long-hair wrap in the cited test
The short answer
Choose the eufy for a balanced HydroJet system and zero long-hair wrap in testing. Choose the ECOVACS for stronger tested obstacle handling and a particularly dry, effective roller-mop result.

About this comparison
Compare two roller-mop robot vacuums for stains, carpets, pet hair, obstacles and dock automation.
The practical choice turns on roller system and obstacle result, then on the constraints in your own setup.
Before you choose
How they fit your plans
The recommended pet mode is not the quietest setting
C28's manufacturer recommends Turbo or Max and 15-minute emptying for pet households. T80S's manual explicitly links stronger suction modes to more sound and suggests Standard when appropriate. If cleaning must happen during calls, neither maximum-power pet routine is a supported quiet choice. Schedule the heavier work elsewhere in the day or verify acceptable results in a lower mode before deciding which system fits.
Facts behind this advice
This uses documented settings rather than unmatched decibel labels. A quieter selected mode may change cleaning performance, and automatic dust transfer adds a separate sound event from the moving robot.
T80S has an explicit long-fiber carpet exclusion
T80S's US manual says to avoid shaggy rugs and carpet fibers longer than ten millimeters, despite its automatic roller lift. If a 15-millimeter-pile rug must be cleaned, T80S is outside that instruction. C28's roller-mop label alone does not prove the alternative is approved, so verify its exact rug guidance before choosing it. If both are used around excluded rugs, plan barriers or mapped exclusions rather than assuming lift solves the problem.
Facts behind this advice
This is a material-compatibility limit, not a comparison of suction. Ten millimeters concerns fiber length, which is different from the total thickness of rug plus backing.

I need help with sticky stains
For roller system, eufy Omni C28 records “HydroJet roller” and ECOVACS DEEBOT T80S OMNI records “OZMO Roller 2.0”. Match the working hardware to the material and task. The component label alone does not prove a better result.

What you give up
Every choice has a cost
If you choose eufy Omni C28
- The 4.4-inch body is too tall for some low furniture.
If you choose ECOVACS DEEBOT T80S OMNI
- Some mapping reports make the room editor worth checking after setup.
