What reviewers found
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
Wybot S2
- PCWorld: Picked up 99 of 100 synthetic leaves and captured organic debris and grit well with the secondary filter fitted. Ran about 2 h 45 min against a 3.5 h claim, moved in a haphazard pattern, and the app's cleaning history was unavailable throughout testing. Source
- The Gadgeteer: Tested the S2 Pro bundle with a self charging dock. Ran about 3.5 h, left the pool visibly cleaner, agitated the surface even at the 9 ft deep end, and its treads did not stick on the main drain. The dock bracket mounts permanently with adhesive. Source
