3i G10+ Robot Vacuum Takes a Different Approach to Dustbin Design

3i has expanded its robot vacuum lineup with the launch of the G10+ robot vacuum and mop combo, a feature-rich model that was previewed at CES 2025. The G10+ combines advanced navigation, object recognition, and customizable cleaning options. While it lacks an auto-empty docking station, the G10+ features onboard internal debris compression, enabling it to hold up to 60 daysโ€™ worth of dirt in a 1-liter bagless dustbin.

With a claimed 18,000Pa of suction, intelligent carpet detection, and pet-friendly features, the G10+ is designed for both hard floors and carpeting. Additional highlights include a retractable mop, corner-reaching side brush, and an app-based control system for detailed mapping and scheduling.

Long-Lasting Debris Management with Built-In Compression

Instead of using a traditional auto-empty docking station, the G10+ features an internal debris compression system. It carries a 1-liter dustbin onboard, which the company claims can hold up to 60 daysโ€™ worth of debris thanks to an integrated compactor. The system includes a UV light to help maintain hygienic bin conditions and does not require disposable dust bags.

3i G10 Plus UltraReach

Floor Cleaning and Edge Performance

The G10+ is designed to clean both hard floors and carpets. It includes a self-adjusting mop that retracts as needed to avoid rugs or obstacles. The vacuum also features an UltraReachโ„ข side brush that extends to sweep debris from corners and along edges.

The G10+ uses ApexVisionโ„ข dToF LIDAR for navigation and obstacle detection. This system allows the robot to map homes in real time, even in low-light conditions. According to 3i, the G10+ can identify over 128 types of household objects and has a visual range of up to 12 meters (39 feet).

AI Dirt Recognition

Equipped with an onboard camera, LED lighting, and AI-powered DirtScanโ„ข technology, the G10+ is able to detect various types of debrisโ€”such as dry particles, wet messes, or pet wasteโ€”and adjust its cleaning strategy accordingly. For example, it increases suction for solids and switches to a more intensive mopping pattern for sticky residues.

Cleaning Modes and Smart App Features

The vacuum supports several user-selectable modes:

  • Clean Carpets First: Prioritizes carpets before other surfaces.
  • Carpet Avoidance: Skips carpets entirely, especially those with longer fibers.
  • Carpet Boost: Lifts the mop and increases suction for carpet cleaning.
  • Secondary Carpet Cleaning: Performs a second pass over carpeted areas.

A companion smartphone app provides remote control and customization options. Users can create a 3D map of their home, set schedules, define no-go zones, and select from cleaning options such as Sweep & Mop, Sweep Only, or AI Auto mode.

Voice Control and Pet-Friendly Features

The G10+ is compatible with voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Users can initiate cleaning routines by voice, including room-specific commands.

For pet owners, the vacuum includes:

  • Pet Avoidance Mode: Prevents close contact with pets.
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Use the app to check in via the onboard camera.
  • Automatic Pet Photos: Captures images of pets during cleaning sessions.
  • Enhanced Pet Area Cleaning: Recognizes pet zones and increases suction power accordingly.

Key Specifications

  • Suction: Up to 18,000Pa
  • Dustbin: 1-liter capacity with compaction and UV light
  • Navigation: ApexVisionโ„ข dToF LIDAR with 12-meter range
  • Cleaning: Self-retracting mop, corner-reaching side brush
  • AI Features: Object recognition, dirt-type classification
  • Battery Life: Up to 180 minutes
  • Height: 4.3 inches
  • WiFi: 2.4GHz
  • Companion App: Yes
  • Included: Robot, base station, mop, side brushes, cleaning solution, user manual

The G10+ follows the companyโ€™s release of the 3i S10 Ultra in November 2024, which introduced a WaterRecycleโ„ข System that purifies and reuses mop water through distillation, eliminating the need for manual refills.
