Roborock S5 Max can clean all floor types, this feature is essential, since different rooms inside a home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum is advertised as being able to clean all floor types, this means that the robot vacuum is capable to clean several flooring materials without much limitations.
Roborock Q5 can also clean all floor types, meaning it is built to be versatile, providing effective cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors found in most homes. The vacuum's ability to generate a digital map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the space.
This can be used for different situations, e.g. the Roborock S5 Max having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not. The Roborock Q5 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 ignoring those that aren't. Roborock S5 Max 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. No-go zones is a feature found on many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and the Roborock S5 Max is one of them.
These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up preventing the robot from accessing specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Roborock Q5 also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in spaces where there are areas that you want to keep off-limits to the robot vacuum. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the Roborock S5 Max 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 Roborock S5 Max's dustbin capacity is at 0.6L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum can hold before it can be emptied. The Roborock Q5, at 0.5L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S5 Max with a difference of only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity varies 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.
Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to alert users when the dirt collection container is full and needs to be emptied. Roborock S5 Max supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged which means performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied. Roborock Q5 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 Roborock S5 Max weighs 3.4kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and carrying around. The Roborock Q5, at 3kg
is lighter than the Roborock S5 Max by 0.4kg. It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Roborock S5 Max has a width of 351mm, 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 important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
Roborock Q5, at 350mm
measures less in width than the Roborock S5 Max with a difference of 1mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. Roborock S5 Max's height measures 97mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Roborock Q5, at 96mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S5 Max with a difference of 1mm. When selecting 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 a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S5 Max's battery power is 5,200mAh
Roborock Q5, at mAh5,200
has the same battery power as the Roborock S5 Max
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large home 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 time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging.
Roborock S5 Max's operating time is 2.5h
Roborock Q5, at 3h
lasts more than the Roborock S5 Max by 0.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. Roborock S5 Max has a charge time of 5h, 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 Roborock Q5, at 4h
spends lesser time charging than the Roborock S5 Max with a difference of only 1h.
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 begins its next cleaning cycle.
