Roborock S5 Max can clean all floor types, this comes in handy, since different rooms inside your home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is advertised able to clean all floor types, this means that the vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean flooring materials without much significant issues.
Roborock Q5 aslo cleans all floor types, this means that it too is built to be versatile, providing effective cleaning performance on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. 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 "understand" the layout of the space.
This can be used for different situations, e.g. the Roborock S5 Max having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. The Roborock Q5 also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area.
Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned leaving out 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 route, this allwos it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. No-go zones is a feature found on many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and Roborock S5 Max is one of them.
These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up to prevent the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Roborock Q5 also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in rooms where there are locations that you want to restrict access to the robot vacuum. Many 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, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum can hold before it needs to be emptied. The Roborock Q5, at 0.5L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S5 Max by only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity can vary 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.
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 thus 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 show that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it minimizes the need for constant monitoring.
Roborock S5 Max weighs 3.4kg, robot vacuums are generally 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 consider the weight of the robot vacuum when choosing 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 the robot vacuum can effectively clean in one go.
The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
The Roborock Q5, at 350mm
measures less in width than the Roborock S5 Max by 1mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. Roborock S5 Max's height measures 97mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is an important 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 by 1mm. When selecting 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 run 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 implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large home or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete operations 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 be recharged.
Roborock S5 Max's operating time is 2.5h
The 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. Roborock Q5, at 4h
spends lesser time charging than the Roborock S5 Max by only 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 is ready for its next cleaning cycle.
