5 Ways the Xiaomi X20 Pro Out-Sucks the Roborock S5

Suction power gap The Xiaomi X20 Pro delivers 4,000 Pa of suction, while the [Roborock S](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Roborock+S&tag=wehavethat-20)5 series tops out at 2,500 Pa. That’s nearly double the cleaning force.

Heavy debris pickup The X20 Pro pulls up heavier crumbs and deeper-embedded pet hair in one pass. The Roborock S5 often needs multiple passes to catch the same debris.

Rug performance On a medium-pile rug, the Xiaomi’s bin was noticeably fuller after one cleaning cycle. The Roborock left more dirt behind.

Efficiency The X20 Pro’s stronger suction means it cleans faster because it doesn’t need to revisit spots. The Roborock wastes time on repeat passes.

Modern standard The Roborock S5 was a great vacuum in its day, but suction technology has moved on. The X20 Pro is the clear current winner.
