Long battery life of 70 minutes on the normal setting and 28 minutes on the highest setting, so you can finish the job without interruptions.
The nozzle with LED lighting is open on all sides, so it can suck up dirt and dust from all sides.
The PowerCyclone 10 motor provides a higher suction power than other stick vacuums from Philips.
Since the dust collector only has a 0.6-liter capacity, you frequently have to empty it.
At 84 decibels, this stick vacuum is relatively loud.
Description
The Philips SpeedPro Max series 8000 XC8049/01 is not only a powerful stick vacuum, but it's also easy to maintain. The PowerCyclone 10 motor is one of Philips' most powerful motors. At the lowest setting, you can vacuum for 70 minutes, and the battery can last for 28 minutes in the turbo setting. The fact that the vacuum cleaner is easy to maintain is caused by 2 things: the motor filter is washable and the display indicates when it's time to do so, and when to replace the exhaust filter. The nozzle sucks up dust on all sides and the LED lighting shows you exactly where all the dirt is. If you're looking for a powerful stick vacuum with which you can easily vacuum the whole house, this is the right choice for you.

Liked vacuum but mop will probably become unhygienic

Pros:
Led lights on vacuum (360) nozzle are great
Pros:
It vacuums well
Pros:
Easy to maneuver
Pros:
Empyting the reservoir is easy
Con:
There are no led lights on mopping nozzle
Con:
vacuum (360) nozzle is already tangled with hair after first clean
Con:
Mopping reservoir can't be fully emptied, so a water residue always remains. Moist, closed sufaces are breeding grounds for mold and bacteria over time.
I bought this product because I wanted to save time by vacuuming and mopping at the same time. I'm sending this back because I don't like the mechanism of the mop and I think there are better vacuums for the same price.
Mopping works well (expect for corners), but it probably won't be hygienic over time. You can't empty the water reservoir fully so it will always remain wet, allowing bacterial and fungal growth (which you will then pass to the floor).
Vacuuming works well. The 360 vacuum nozzle has led lights which are very handy, but after the first clean quite a bit of hair is already tangled on it. The mop mechanism doesn't have the led lights.
If I could empty the water reservoir and store it dry, I would have kept this product. I hope Philips improves the ability to clean the nozzles, after which I would definitely get it again.

Pros:
All the pros, as advertised. Excellent product
As advertised. Best buy. Not loud. Lights help to find those ‘hidden’ spots of dust. Many options with all the accessories. On hand for a quick vacuum. Easy to clean. CoolBlue delivery was on time, with great communication.
