The Deco X55 mesh system is aimed at extending WiFi through larger homes and plaster walls, with easy backward compatibility for existing Deco nodes and a setup that can be expanded without running new wires. Speed and range improved noticeably after upgrading from Deco S4, and the app and overall reliability were praised in some setups. The main cautions are that dual band wireless backhaul can share bandwidth, so throughput may drop versus tri band systems, and some setups saw lag spikes, bottlenecks, or weaker performance unless nodes were placed carefully or wired backhaul was used. A solid fit when coverage matters more than top tier raw speed.
Some setups report long-term reliability with Deco mesh units used for years without issues.
Upgrading from a Deco S4 to the Deco X55 (AX3000) improved both speed and range after installation.
Deco mesh can extend through plaster walls by chaining signal to a second floor for steadier upstairs coverage.
The system can keep older Deco S4 nodes working together through backward compatibility for broader coverage.
Deco X55 units can show bufferbloat and large lag spikes even after changing settings.
Deco X55 performance may drop to about half the router speed unless a hardwired connection is used.
Deco X55 can develop bottlenecks where cameras or printers lag or get stuck connecting over time.
Parental controls on Deco systems may be unreliable, with inaccurate website blocking and hit-or-miss bedtime device blocking.

The Deco X55 is only dual band so that means one of the wireless bands (likely 5ghz) will be shared between clients and wireless backhaul duty, slowing down traffic for clients...

The one primary advantage to wifi7 is it's the first wifi standard that is full duplex.For most people this won't amount to much but if you are looking for low latency (e.g. gaming) it could offer an advantage, but even most hardcore gamers I know use cabled to ensure lowest possible latency. Truth be told wifi5 is still more than adequate for 99% of households.
The bigger factors to look into is how they implement wireless vs the spec itself. E.g. how many antennas, does it have a dedicated channel / antenna for back haul, proper mimo support, beam forming, seamless roaming (handoff from one node to another without disconnecting sessions), stability of router, regular security updates, value add features like VPN server, etc.
