A robot vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the space. Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g.
the iRobot Roomba i7 having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. Roidmi EVA also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation states how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't.
iRobot Roomba i7 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's path, this allwos it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. Also, the Roidmi EVA has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and iRobot Roomba i7 is one of them.
These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up to prevent the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Roidmi EVA also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in rooms where there are areas that you want to restrict access to the robot vacuum. Many modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba i7 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and controlled using voice commands.
Roidmi EVA can also work with Amazon Alexa, keep in mind that you will require an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo speaker for voice control to work with Roidmi EVA. iRobot Roomba i7 is compatible with Google Assistant, allowing you to control it using voice commands via Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app installed on smartphones and tablets.

Roidmi EVA also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to alert that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it reduces the need for constant monitoring. The iRobot Roomba i7 weighs 3kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and portability. The Roidmi EVA, at 3.6kg
weighs more than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 0.6kg.
It's important to take in consideration the weight of the robot vacuum when getting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba i7 has a width of 338mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can properly clean in a single pass. The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
The Roidmi EVA, at 390mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 52mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba i7's height measures 92mm, here you are looking at the measurement from the bottom to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with limited clearance in your home. The Roidmi EVA, at 100mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 8mm.
When choosing 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 battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge.

Roidmi EVA, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with less interruptions to recharge.
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 return to its charging dock for recharging. iRobot Roomba i7's operating time is 1.25h
Roidmi EVA, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 1.75h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba i7 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.
Roidmi EVA, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 2h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, as it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for its next cleaning cycle.
