Pros & cons

Dyson V8 Cyclone

  • ✓150AW matches the V12 Detect Slim for hundreds less
  • ✓60-minute max runtime, up from 40 on the old V8
  • ✓De-tangling Motorbar cleaner head handed down from the flagships
  • ✓Whole-machine sealed filtration captures 99.99% of 0.3-micron particles
  • ✓5.9 lbs — lighter than the V15 and Gen5detect
  • ✓Compatible with existing V8 attachments
  • ✗Hold-down trigger rather than the newer models' power button
  • ✗No auto-adjusting suction, laser, or particle sensor — two manual modes only
  • ✗Sealed filtration but not HEPA-rated like the V15/Gen5
  • ✗Too new for long-term reliability reports
  • ✗Rarely discounted yet, unlike the mature Detect models

Dyson V10 Konical

  • ✓Conical brush bars specifically engineered against long-hair wrap
  • ✓All Floors Cones head illuminates dust and adapts to hard floor and carpet
  • ✓Auto-empty Dok option (sold separately) is Dyson's first self-emptying cordless dock
  • ✓Cheaper than the V11/V15/Gen5 lines while sharing the same de-tangling design language
  • ✓60-minute max runtime
  • ✗150AW suction is noticeably below the V11 (185AW) and V15/Gen5 (240-250AW) lines
  • ✗Auto-empty Dok is a separate purchase, not included at this price
  • ✗No laser dust reveal or particle sensor
  • ✗Manufacturer-published dustbin capacity not listed on the pages found during research
  • ✗New enough (2026) that independent long-term reliability data is still thin
