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 keep a record of the layout of the space. Mapping and navigation can be used for several purposes, for example the iRobot Roomba i7 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 i7 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 thus avoiding collisions.
Also, the Tikom G8000 Pro 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. No-go zones is a feature found on 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 entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle.
The Tikom G8000 Pro also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in homes where there are areas that you want to restrict access to the robot vacuum. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba i7 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and controlled using voice commands.

The Tikom G8000 Pro, at mAh2,600
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large space or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer 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 be recharged.
iRobot Roomba i7's operating time is 1.25h
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 0.75h
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. Tikom G8000 Pro, at 5h
