Claim check3 claims reviewed
WYBOT markets the C2 Vision as cleaning "up to 20X more efficiently" using AI and camera detectionThe multiplier is a manufacturer claim in wire copy; Robovations found no independent test data supporting a specific efficiency figureThe March 2025 release describes 7 cleaning modes and 6 paths for the C2 VisionSeparate 2025 and 2026 product listings for the same model describe 8 cleaning modes; Robovations has not reconciled the discrepancyThe $679 price is presented as savings of $120 off listRetail pricing for the model has varied across 2025 and 2026 retailers and promotional periods, so $679 reflects one promotional snapshot, not a fixed priceBottom lineThe March 2025 campaign confirms commercial availability well before the 2026-01-01 date on record; the exact original launch date remains undocumented.
Technical notes3 sections
- Retail Positioning
-
A March 13, 2025 national press release distributed via PR Newswire and syndicated by outlets including CBS 42, the Longview News-Journal and Yahoo Finance placed the WYBOT C2 Vision within an expanded Wybot pool cleaner lineup for the 2025 pool season. The release named the C2 Vision, the standard C2 and the F1 Robotic Pool Skimmer as separate, concurrently marketed products, each carrying its own discount.
- Documented Specifications
-
The release lists a sale price of $679 (a stated $120 reduction), coverage of pools up to 2,152 sq ft, compatibility with tile, concrete, vinyl and fiberglass surfaces, a brushless cordless motor, and an AI camera used for debris detection. It states 7 cleaning modes and 6 cleaning paths for the model, a figure that differs from the 8-mode count cited in other 2025 and 2026 WYBOT product listings carrying the same C2 Vision name.
- Timeline Significance
-
Because the release describes the C2 Vision as already established and already discounted, it places the model on the market well before the 2026-01-01 release date currently on record. The release does not state an original launch date.
