Roborock S5 Max can clean all floor types, this comes in handy, as different rooms inside a home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum cleaner is stated able to clean all types of floors, it implies that the vacuum is capable to clean flooring materials without much significant issues.
Roborock S7 can also clean all floor types, this means that it too is built to be versatile, providing best cleaning results 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 desired 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 without accessing those that are not. The Roborock S7 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 move to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't. Roborock S5 Max 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 Roborock S7 has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its surroundings, 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 found on many robot vacuum cleaners and the Roborock S5 Max supports this feature. These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up preventing the robot from accessing specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. The Roborock S7 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 built to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands. The Roborock S7 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 Roborock S7. Roborock S5 Max is compatible with Google Assistant, allowing you to control it using voice commands via Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app found on smartphones and tablets.
Roborock S7 is compatible with Google Assistant, it's advised to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before purchasing a robot vacuum. Roborock S5 Max has 4 cleaning modes, the number of cleaning modes supported by robot vacuums can vary widely depending on the make and model of the robot vacuum. The Roborock S7, having only 4
has the same number of cleaning modes as the Roborock S5 Max
Robot vacuum manufacturers may offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to various cleaning scenarios.
Roborock S5 Max has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 - 2 years, however some higher-end brands may offer longer warranties. Roborock S7, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Roborock S5 Max. When considering a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, as well as any limitations or exclusions that may apply.
Roborock S5 Max has washable filters, these are designed to capture dust, dirt, and fine particles during the cleaning process and can be easily removed and cleaned to maintain the vacuum's performance. Roborock S7 comes with washable filters, the advantage of washable filters is that they can be cleaned and reused multiple times, reducing costs of replacing disposable filters, plus it's also good for the environment. 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 needs to be emptied.
Roborock S7, at 0.5L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S5 Max with a difference of only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among robot vacuum models, and the capcity 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 dustbin 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 S7 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. Roborock S5 Max weighs 3.4kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. Roborock S5 Max has a width of 351mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly clean in one go.
The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a space
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 obstacles with low clearance in your home. The battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge.
It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S5 Max's battery power is 5,200mAh
The Roborock S7, 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 would like 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 return to its charging dock for recharging. Roborock S5 Max's operating time is 2.5h
The Roborock S7, 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 S7, at 5h
has the same charge time as the Roborock S5 Max. 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 is the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home. Roborock S5 Max has a power consumption of 58W, power is often measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. Roborock S7, at 68W
consumes more power than the Roborock S5 Max by 10W.
Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, but it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets. Auto-off is a feature designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when certain conditions occur. Roborock S5 Max has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
Also, Roborock S7 supports 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 process. True, most modern robot vacuum cleaners can mop floors in addition to vacuuming. Such robot vacuums are often referred to as robot vacuum and mop models and Roborock S5 Max is one of those robot vacuums
