Dyson V8 vs. V10 Differences
1.The Motor
The Dyson V10 runs off the V10 digital motor has 20% more suction power, compared to the V8, according to Dyson.
2. The Airflow
The Dyson V10 has been redesigned to have more efficient airflow and more powerful suction. The cyclones, dust bin, and cleaning head have all been aligned to help to provide stronger suction and help the vacuum be more efficient.
3. The Run Time
The Dyson V10 also uses an improved, fade-free battery that allows for up to 60 minutes of run time, compared to 40 minutes of run time on the V8.
Should You Buy the Dyson V8?
The Dyson V8 is a great option if you want a longer run time than what is offered with the Dyson V6, but don’t want to pay the high price tag for the Dyson V10.
Looking specifically at cleaning performance, the V8 was a real contender against the V10, coming within a percent or two for most of the tests.
You Should Buy the Dyson V8 If You…
Want a lower price - With the new release of the V10, older Dyson models, like the V8 are dropping in price, but they are still a well-built machine. Purchasing a model that is a couple years old can be a great way to snag a deal, as is the case with the Dyson V8.
Don’t need the extra run time - The 20-minute run time of the Dyson V6 may be a little short for some people, while the 60-minute run time of the V10 could feel a little excessive. If you want sometime in the middle, the V8 provides that middle-ground between quality and value.
Want multiple cleaning heads - If you want two cleaning heads, the V8 comes with the direct-drive cleaner head as well as the soft roller cleaner head (with the V8 Absolute model).
Should You Buy the Dyson V10?
The Dyson V10 is the top-of-the-line model on the Dyson market right now. Dyson is such a fan of it that James Dyson himself was recently quoted saying that the launch of the V10 is “why I’ve stopped developing corded vacuums.” The vacuum is lightweight and portable, yet has a large dust bin and provides powerful suction.
You Should Buy the Dyson V10 If:
Want a longer run time - Compared to the V8, the V10 offers 20 extra minutes of run time, for a total of a 60-minute run time. This run time is when running on standard power. If you’re using motorized tools or the “Max Power” setting, run time will be less.
You Want stronger suction - The redesign and alignment of the dust bin, motor, and cyclones results in a vacuum that looks more “streamline” and offers 20% stronger suction over that of the V8 stick vacuum.
Want a larger dustbin - the V10’s dustbin is 40% larger than the Dyson V8.
You Want the Torque Drive cleaning head - As an upgrade to the direct-drive cleaning head, the V10 model comes with a torque-drive cleaning head. Both the V8 and the V10 are available with the “Fluffy” soft roller cleaning head.

Glad you like them!
Would be useful to add how much long hair is tangled in each brush head and which vacuum is best for long hair as I’m looking to upgrade from my v6. Absolute nightmare cleaning hair from hoover brush head.
useful review. bought the v10. thanks for your content. was going to get the v8 but thought fuck it, im going big. man im exciting.
Thank you! I'm glad to hear it was helpful.
Let me know how you like the V10! I don't think you'll be disappointed.
thanks for the good comparison i think this helped me made my choice between the 2 definitely will go for the v10
You're welcome!
I was looking at the V8 but saw multiple reviewers say that the life of the battery isn't very long, which you confirmed in this video when you said that the V8 battery typically lasts 2-5 years, while the V10 lasts up to 15 years. Any idea how much it costs to replace the battery (for both models)? Just wanting to weigh that cost against the cost of upgrading to the V10 instead. Thanks!
Dyson V8 battery is around $50 and the V10 is around $80
Those prices are from the 3rd party battery makers (which tend to be both less expensive).
Don't buy a 3rd party Dyson batteries. You risk having a shorter battery life and possible issues with your Dyson. The average price of the Dyson V8 battery price in Canada is Cad$150
Weak triggers are the issue. Over time the bridge get weak and they break. The gen 5 or the slim is way better. Ordinary on off button. Automatically goes from regular to max mode as it detects heavier debris.
Looking for one mainly for cat which is better v8 motorhead or v10 absolute
V10 Absolute is notably better, both in terms of suction, run time, and cleaning attachments.
Nice review.
Would be nice to know, in minutes, how long each run using max power.
We have started doing that on our newer reviews and comparisons.
Here's the exact run time data:
DYSON V8
Normal: 31:40
Max: 8:20
DYSON V10
Low: 49:40
Medium: 26:50
Boost: 5:30
What about wand head airflow? I have the v8 and notice the airflow at the wand head isn't that powerful.
Not sure how we'd measure that without special equipment.
Shopping for a Dyson is a PITA! That said thank you for helping make it a little easier.
My DC34 battery is about dead, AND we just got a cat. I was trying to buy a new battery and wand attachment, but not even Dyson chat seem to know if the wand from the DC45 can be used with the DC34.
If i decide to buy a new machine. If i decide its a Dyson, it'll likely be the V8. HOWEVER because they are like APPLE and make it impossible to buy only what you need conveniently, I'm am trying to figure out what my best option is.
V8 Absolute?
V8 Motorhead + $150 soft roller
- because all I want is the Soft roller for kitty litter on the hardwood. (I don't need the mini-motor or soft brush)
or would you say the standard roller is good enough for kitty litter on hardwood?
Unfortunately, your review for the direct drive motor on hardwood only showed cheerios, and not rice or litter. so it's hard to tell.
Soft roller is better, but the regular mutli surface brushroll is more than sufficient for kitty litter on hardwoods. I'd just go with the V8 Animal and call it a day. No need to overthink it.
Please can you help me v10 motorhead or v8 absolute for hard floor apartment with one carpet thank you in advance 🌸
V8 Absolute, the fluffy head will be super nice with that much hard flooring

Another commenter requested the following data points:
V8 Max Suction = 115 AW
V10 Max Suction = 140 AW
V8 Max Suction Run Time (based on our tests) = 8:20
V10 Max Suction Run Time (based on our tests) = 5:30
please add max suction power battery run time.. not sure why you never mention that. No one uses these in normal mode.
V8 Max Suction = 115 AW
V10 Max Suction = 140 AW
Max suction is also listed in the video here 1:08
V8 Max Suction Run Time (based on our tests) = 8:20
V10 Max Suction Run Time (based on our tests) = 5:30
