Roborock used CES 2026 to push its robot vacuum lineup into more capable and more autonomous territory, unveiling two new Saros flagship models alongside a refreshed Qrevo Curv that embraces the roller mop trend. All three will support Matter and Apple Home, with the Qrevo being the first robo map with Matter support.
Roborock Saros 20 Sonic
The Saros 20 Sonic is Roborock’s most advanced robot vacuum to date, combining extreme suction power with a significantly upgraded sonic mopping system. At the heart of the new design is the AdaptiLift Chassis 3.0, which allows the robot to dynamically raise and lower itself depending on floor type and obstacles. This enables the Saros 20 Sonic to cross single and double layer thresholds totaling up to 3.3 inches, making it far better suited to sunken rooms, stepped transitions, and thick rugs than previous generations.
Carpet cleaning also benefits from the adjustable chassis, which optimises airflow for carpets with pile up to 1.2 inches high and includes a dedicated deep carpet cleaning mode. If the robot becomes stuck, the height adjustable system helps it free itself, reducing the need for manual rescues.
Mopping is where the Saros 20 Sonic truly differentiates itself. The new VibraRise 5.0 system introduces a long awaited edge cleaning upgrade. The vibrating mop pad physically extends beyond the circular body of the robot, allowing it to scrub directly against baseboards, furniture legs, and tight edges with effectively zero clearance. The pad applies stronger downward pressure and offers 27 percent more vibrating area than earlier models, delivering noticeably more aggressive scrubbing on the first pass. Water flow and vibration intensity can be tuned in the Roborock app for different floor types.
With a staggering 35,000 Pa of suction power, the Saros 20 Sonic is also one of the most powerful robot vacuums currently announced, making it especially appealing for homes with pets and heavy carpeted areas. Improved obstacle recognition allows it to avoid everyday items such as cables, laundry, and small objects down to around 0.7 inches in size. Despite the added hardware, the robot remains relatively slim at 3.1 inches tall and includes a built in live camera for pet monitoring and remote check ins.

Roborock Saros 20
The Saros 20 shares much of the same core platform as the Sonic variant, including the AdaptiLift Chassis 3.0, 35,000 Pa suction power, and the anti tangle DuoDivide brush roll. It offers the same threshold climbing capabilities, automatic chassis height adjustment, deep carpet cleaning mode, and improved obstacle avoidance, making it just as capable when it comes to navigation and debris pickup.
The key difference lies in the mopping system. Instead of the extending sonic mop, the Saros 20 uses flexible dual spinning mopping pads similar to those found on last year’s Saros 10. While this setup lacks the zero clearance edge scrubbing of the Sonic model, it remains effective for general hard floor cleaning and benefits from Roborock’s refined pressure control and water management.
Like the Sonic, the Saros 20 includes a live camera, pet monitoring features, and advanced navigation, positioning it as a slightly more traditional but still extremely powerful flagship option for users who prioritise vacuum performance and reliability over the latest mopping innovations.

Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow
The Qrevo Curv 2 Flow marks Roborock’s entry into the increasingly popular roller mop category, reviving the distinctive curved dock design while completely rethinking the mopping system. Replacing the dual spinning pads found on the original Qrevo Curv, the new model introduces the SpiralFlow roller mop, a large, fluffy roller designed to handle bigger spills and sticky messes in fewer passes.
The roller spins at 220 RPM and applies downward pressure comparable to a person wiping with a paper towel, making it particularly effective at absorbing liquid and lifting thicker splatters rather than spreading them across the floor. The mop continuously rinses itself in real time, ensuring that dirt and liquid are not redistributed as cleaning continues.
Edge performance is also a priority. The roller automatically extends beyond the robot’s circular body when edges are detected, allowing it to clean to within less than half an inch of baseboards and chair legs. This approach mirrors similar designs seen from competitors, but Roborock is aiming for more thorough edge coverage and fewer missed droplets.
The Qrevo Curv 2 Flow will be available from January 19 with an introductory price of $849, rising to $999 after February 1, positioning it as a more accessible alternative to the Saros flagships while still offering advanced mopping performance and a premium dock design.
Matter and Apple Home integration
Across its 2026 lineup, Roborock continues to expand its smart home ambitions. Support for Matter will be available in the Saros 20 and the Saros 20 Sonic, including integration with Apple Home, allowing users to start cleaning, include vacuums in automations. Matter support is expected to be rolled out to the Qrevo Curv 2 Flow later this year, which would be a worlds first mop only robot vacuum.
