When selecting a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can fit under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The operating time of the iRobot Roomba 770 refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba 770's operating time is 2h
iRobot Roomba 698, at 1.5h
spends less time than the iRobot Roomba 770 by only 0.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals.
iRobot Roomba 770 has a charge time of 3h, 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. The iRobot Roomba 698, at 2h
spends lesser time charging than the iRobot Roomba 770 with a difference of only 1h. 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 begins its next cleaning cycle.
This is the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home. iRobot Roomba 770 has a power consumption of 30W, power is measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. iRobot Roomba 770 has a dirt sensor, these are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the room being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation.

Both the iRobot Roomba 698 and iRobot Roomba 770 have the "anti-stuck" feature, however clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums can help further reduce the chances of becoming stuck while cleaning. These virtual barriers are set up and managed via the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are designed to enable you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go during cleaning. Both iRobot Roomba 770 and iRobot Roomba 698 support virtual barriers, this ability to set virtual barriers is mostly useful for homes with areas where the robot vacuum may become stuck.
Auto-docking is a feature that refers to the vacuum's ability to autonomously return to its docking station when predetermined conditions are met such as done with cleaning, battery running low, or any malfunction. Modern robot vacuum cleaners such as iRobot Roomba 770 come equipped with an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is designed to prevent the robot vacuum from falling off stairs, ledges, or other elevated surfaces, hence its safety during operation.
This safety feature that is also available on the iRobot Roomba 698 is essential in avoiding accidents and keeping the robot vacuum from damage.
