Our verdict
The Saros 20 Neo is the cheapest way into Roborock's 36,000 Pa Saros platform, and most of what makes the platform good survives the cut. A RetractSense LiDAR replaces the Saros 20's StarSight array and drops into the body so the robot clears 79.5 mm, the AdaptiLift chassis climbs a 4.5 cm sill and an 8.79 cm double step, and structured light, an RGB camera and the VertiBeam side laser recognise more than 300 objects. Mopping is by two spinning pads with an edge mop beside the FlexiArm Arc brush, fed with warm water that the dock refills, and the dock re-washes a pad it finds dirty. What Roborock leaves off the page is more than usual: no battery, runtime, noise, bin or tank, no mop lift height, no drying claim and no carpet suction boost, only a triple-lift design and a carpet mode you switch on in the app. It also appears only in the German shop for now.
