iRobot Roomba 770 can clean all floor types, this feature comes in handy, since different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is stated as being able to clean all types of floors, it implies that the robot vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean flooring materials without any significant issues.
Xiaomi Mi Robot can also clean all floor types, meaning it is designed to be adaptable, providing effective cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. iRobot Roomba 770 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's way, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Xiaomi Mi Robot has an obstacle 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 and avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
The iRobot Roomba 770 has 3 cleaning modes, the cleaning modes offered by robot vacuum cleaners can vary depending on the design of the robot vacuum. The iRobot Roomba 770 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 year to 2 years, but some higher-end models may give longer warranties. iRobot Roomba 770's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it can be emptied.
The Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 0.4L
carries less dirt than the iRobot Roomba 770 by only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity varies widely among robot vacuum models, and the size you choose should depend on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance. The iRobot Roomba 770 can adjust its height to match this requirement, for example, it may raise itself slightly when transitioning to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to make sure the brushes make good contact.
The iRobot Roomba 770 weighs 3.8kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and carrying around. The Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 0.4kg
is lighter than the iRobot Roomba 770 with a difference of 3.4kg. It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba 770 has a width of 353mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that it can properly clean in a single pass.
The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 345mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba 770 with a difference of 8mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba 770's height measures 91mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home. The Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 96mm

The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba 770's operating time is 2h
The Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 2.5h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 770 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 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.
Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 770 by 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. The operating power consumption of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to 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 often measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. The Xiaomi Mi Robot, at 55W
consumes more power than the iRobot Roomba 770 by 25W. Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, however it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets.
iRobot Roomba 770 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors 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 cleaning cycle. This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is designed to reduce the chance of the robot vacuum getting stuck during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba 770 are equipped with various sensors and technologies to navigate around obstacles and avoid getting trapped, however the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models.
Both the Xiaomi Mi Robot and iRobot Roomba 770 have the "anti-stuck" feature, however clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums helps to further eliminate the chances of becoming stuck while cleaning. Virtual barriers are typically set up and controlled through the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are setup to enable you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go during cleaning. Both iRobot Roomba 770 and Xiaomi Mi Robot support virtual barriers, this ability to set virtual barriers is especially useful for spaces with areas where the robot vacuum may become stuck.
Auto-docking is a feature that refers to the vacuum's ability to return to its docking station when predetermined conditions are met such as getting work done, battery running low, or any malfunction. Both Xiaomi Mi Robot and iRobot Roomba 770 support this feature, considered a convenient feature because it makes sure that the robot vacuum keeps its charge and readiness for cleaning with little or no manual intervention. Most robot vacuum cleaners such as iRobot Roomba 770 come having an "anti-fall" feature.
