The catch
eufy Omni C28
Independent testing put its obstacle avoidance in the middling range.
Side by side
eufy C28 vs ECOVACS T80S OMNI guide: In the cited test, long hair did not wrap on C28
Quick verdict
Go with the eufy if you want a balanced HydroJet system and no long-hair wrap in testing. The ECOVACS earns the nod for stronger tested obstacle handling and a roller-mop result that is particularly dry and effective.

What this page compares
How two roller-mop robot vacuums stack up on stains, carpets, pet hair, obstacles and dock automation.
This one comes down to roller system and obstacle result first, then to the limits of your own setup.
Day to day
How each one fits your routine
The setting recommended for pets is not the quietest one
For pet households, the manufacturer of C28 recommends Turbo or Max along with 15-minute emptying. The T80S manual explicitly ties stronger suction modes to more sound and suggests Standard when appropriate. If cleaning has to happen during calls, neither maximum-power pet routine is a supported quiet choice. Move the heavier work to another time of day, or confirm you get acceptable results in a lower mode, before you decide which system fits.
Where this comes from
The comparison relies on documented settings and not on decibel labels that do not match up. Picking a quieter mode may alter cleaning performance, and automatic dust transfer makes its own noise apart from the moving robot.
T80S explicitly excludes long-fiber carpet
Even with its automatic roller lift, T80S's US manual says to stay away from shaggy rugs and carpet fibers longer than ten millimeters. A 15-millimeter-pile rug that has to be cleaned falls outside that instruction for T80S. The roller-mop label on C28 does not by itself prove the alternative is approved, so check its exact rug guidance before choosing it. If either one will run near excluded rugs, set up barriers or mapped exclusions and do not assume lift takes care of it.
Where this comes from
What this sets is a limit on material compatibility and not a suction comparison. Ten millimeters is about fiber length, and that is not the same as the total thickness of the rug and its backing.
