The vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space. This can be used for several purposes, for example the iRobot Roomba 698 having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not.
The Tikom G8000 Pro also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the space. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't. iRobot Roomba 698 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's path, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions.
Also, the Tikom G8000 Pro has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its surroundings, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles. Many modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba 698 are built to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and controlled using voice commands.

has the same dustbin capacity as the iRobot Roomba 698
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among different robot vacuum models, and the capcity you choose should be based on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to alert users when the dustbin is full and needs to be emptied. iRobot Roomba 698 supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged which means performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied.
Tikom G8000 Pro also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to indicate that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it minimizes the need for constant monitoring. iRobot Roomba 698 weighs 3kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2.8kg
is lighter than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 0.2kg.
It's advisable to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when selecting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba 698 has a width of 340mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
Tikom G8000 Pro, at 325mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 15mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba 698's height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 78.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 13.3mm.
When selecting a robot vacuum, ensure that the robot vacuum can go under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. iRobot Roomba 698's operating time is 1.5h
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 0.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals.
iRobot Roomba 698 has a charge time of 2h, the charge time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time it takes for the vacuum's battery to recharge fully after it has been depleted during a cleaning cycle. Tikom G8000 Pro, at 5h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 698 by 3h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, since it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for its next cleaning cycle.
This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when certain conditions occur. iRobot Roomba 698 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation. Also, Tikom G8000 Pro has this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a key addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning process.
iRobot Roomba 698 has a dirt sensor, these are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the space being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. iRobot Roomba 698 has carpet detection, this enables the vacuum to detect and adapt to all kinds of floor surfaces, to be specific recognizing when it transitions from hard floors like tile to areas with carpets. iRobot Roomba 698 supports a smartphone app, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet.
