A robot vacuum's ability to create a digital map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the space. This 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 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 i7 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects 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 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. No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and iRobot Roomba i7 is one of them.
These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted spaces that you can set up preventing the robot from accessing specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. The Roidmi EVA also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in homes where there are locations that you want to keep off-limits to the robot vacuum. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba i7 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and controlled using voice commands.
The Roidmi EVA can also work with Amazon Alexa, keep in mind that you will need an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo speaker for voice control to work with your robot vacuum. 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 is compatible with Google Assistant, it's advised to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before purchasing a robot vacuum.

Robot vacuum manufacturers may offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to different cleaning challenges. The iRobot Roomba i7 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 year to 2 years, however some higher-end models may give longer warranties.
The Roidmi EVA, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of iRobot Roomba i7. When thinking of buying a robot vacuum cleaner, it's important to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply. The iRobot Roomba i7's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, debris, and pet hair the vacuum can hold before it can be emptied.
Roidmi EVA, at 0.7L
has more capacity than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 0.2L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among 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. Most robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to notify users when the dustbin is full and needs to be emptied. iRobot Roomba i7 supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged thus performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied.
Roidmi EVA 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 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 carrying around. Roidmi EVA, at 3.6kg
weighs more than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 0.6kg.
It's important to consider 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, refers to the width of the area that it can effectively 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
Roidmi EVA, at 390mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 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 measure from the bottom to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home. Roidmi EVA, at 100mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 8mm.
When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure 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 important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7's battery power is 1,800mAh
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 without frequent 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, since it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum begins its next cleaning cycle. This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when specific conditions occur.
iRobot Roomba i7 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation. Also, Roidmi EVA 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 operations. iRobot Roomba i7 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle.
Problem area cleaning enables you to program a robot vacuum to focus on cleaning a specific spot in your home, the iRobot Roomba i7 supports this, which can be particularly useful for dealing with localized messes or high-traffic areas. The Roidmi EVA also supports problem area cleaning, the spot cleaning feature is a better way to address specific area messes or busy areas without running a full cleaning cycle for your entire space. iRobot Roomba i7 supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet.
