A sensible budget cordless pick for owners who want walls and waterline scrubbed without paying flagship money. Reviewers found it picked up leaves and dirt well, but it skipped step debris and its 150 µm basket will not hold fine sand or algae. Skip it if you have a sun shelf you want cleaned.

The lowest priced robot here, with a camera based dirt hunting mode and a finer filter than most budget cordless models. Testing was mixed: EFTM liked the cleaning but found most modes run until the battery is nearly flat, and The Pool Nerd disliked the standard C2's suction and limited timer. Note that WYBOT had a 2026 battery recall on two older models.

What reviewers found
Beatbot Sora 10
- PCWorld: Picked up dirt and leaves and scrubbed walls and waterline credibly, collecting over 95% of test debris in about two hours, but missed all debris on the steps and sinks a few minutes after parking if not retrieved. Source
- The Smart Home Hookup: Strong coverage, runtime, waterline cleaning and leaf pickup; failed the 8 inch sun shelf test and its 150 micron basket will not trap algae or fine silt. Source
- The Pool Nerd: Lists it as an entry option with better build than no name robots, but notes a slow random path, no weekly timer, and basic mesh filtration. Source
WYBOT C2 Vision
- EFTM (86%): Dirt hunting mode found a placed dirt pile within 20 minutes and the pool looked very clean, but most modes ran until the battery was nearly flat, shallow steps stopped it, and the app had account and translation quirks. Source
- The Pool Nerd: Tested the standard C2, not the Vision: weaker suction than a corded Dolphin, a weekly timer capped at 180 minutes total in floor mode, and an Android login error. Rated Pool Nerd Disapproved. Source
