The catch
Beatbot AquaSense
The fine secondary media in the WYBOT C2 or ECOVACS P1 is finer than this 150-micron filter.
Side by side
On published flow and floor runtime, AquaSense comes out ahead. For fine dust, the C2 is the better choice, since its secondary filter goes down to 10 microns.
Before you buy
Beatbot AquaSense is the better match for “This cleaner is going into a saltwater pool”. WYBOT C2 is the better match for “My pool collects fine dust, sand or dead algae” and “I would like to empty the filter less often”.
Where this comes from
This lines up the current strong and useful fit ratings for the exact products. It does not roll them into one overall score.
The catch

The catch
Simple floor-only cordless models weigh less than its 17.6 pounds dry.

Two cordless robots for large pools, set against each other on runtime, flow and filtration.
This one comes down to coverage and runtime first, then to the limits of your own setup.
Which one fits
Do not assume every saltwater pool works. Look up the permitted salt concentration and water chemistry for the exact model.
A fine-filter option is documented for it. Confirm that this exact filter is included, and follow the instructions for coarse cleanup and filter care.
Its larger nominal basket gives debris more room. When it needs attention depends on debris size, how loaded the filter gets and the cleaning mode.
Beatbot AquaSense lists “Up to 3.5 hours on floor” for runtime, while WYBOT C2 lists “Up to 180 min”. This sets how much you get done in one session before you recharge or swap batteries.
In practice
Beatbot AquaSense is the better match for “This cleaner is going into a saltwater pool”. WYBOT C2 is the better match for “My pool collects fine dust, sand or dead algae” and “I would like to empty the filter less often”.
This lines up the current strong and useful fit ratings for the exact products. It does not roll them into one overall score.
Both meet the same 3 of the 3 needs this comparison is built around, so the choice comes down to “coverage” and “runtime”.
Both products are checked against the same needs. The first verified differences still standing are named here.
4 of the 27 robot pool cleaners checked handle both “My pool is large or nearly 50 feet” and “No cable should run across my pool”. Both make the cut.
You can reproduce the count by filtering the current category for models with a strong or useful fit on both needs.

Beatbot, A100
This cordless cleaner runs for a long time, has strong published flow and covers the floor, walls and waterline.

WYBOT, 2026 Upgrade
This is the widest-ranging WYBOT on the list, with a three-hour battery, seven modes and a 10-micron secondary filter.
Spec by spec
| Spec | Beatbot AquaSense | WYBOT C2 | In practice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coverage | 2,260 sq ft | 2,152 sq ft | Treat this published coverage as a sizing limit under the stated conditions. It does not guarantee results in every layout. |
| Runtime | Up to 3.5 hours on floor | Up to 180 min | It decides how much you can get done in one session before you have to recharge or swap batteries. |
| Filtration | 150 micron | 180 + 10 micron | It shows what the treatment path is built to catch or reduce, and what upkeep that requires. |
| Flow | 5,500 GPH | 3,592 GPH | Higher published output is useful only if your room, surface or workload calls for the extra headroom. It does not, by itself, prove better results. |
Trade-offs
By the numbers
What we found across the robot pool cleaners we compare, plus the checked facts behind each finding.
Only 4 of the 27 models checked meet every need here: “My pool is large or nearly 50 feet”, “No cable should run across my pool”, and “Regular scrubbing is needed at the waterline”.
4 models fit, out of 27 checkedBeatbot AquaSense lists 210 min for listed full cleaning cycle, 17% more than the 180 min on WYBOT C2.
How we countedThe count uses each product's current fit ratings for “My pool is large or nearly 50 feet”, “No cable should run across my pool”, and “Regular scrubbing is needed at the waterline”. A need with no documented match is not counted.
How we calculatedCycles listed in hours are shown in minutes. Optional quick modes and unlimited corded running are left out. For context, 13 of 27 models publish comparable figures.
