The Roborock S6 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 year to 2 years, but some higher-end models may give longer warranty periods. The Xiaomi X10 Plus, at 2 year
has a longer warranty period than the Roborock S6 by 1 year.
When considering a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply. The Roborock S6's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, debris, and pet hair the vacuum holds before it needs to be emptied. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance.
Roborock S6 adjusts its height to match this requirement, for example, it may raise itself slightly when transitioning to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to ensure the brushes make good contact. Automatic height adjustment is commonly found in mid-range to high-end robot vacuum models such as the Xiaomi X10 Plus with better sensor technology and adaptability. This feature is essential for maintaining cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles.
Roborock S6 weighs 3.6kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and portability. The Xiaomi X10 Plus, at 3.8kg
weighs more than the Roborock S6 by 0.2kg. It's important to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when choosing a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Roborock S6 has a width of 350mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can properly clean in a single pass.
The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
Xiaomi X10 Plus, at 350mm
has the same width as that of Roborock S6. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. Roborock S6's height measures 97mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. Xiaomi X10 Plus, at 97mm
has the same height as that of Roborock S6. When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can fit 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 run on a single charge. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
Xiaomi X10 Plus, at mAh5,200
has the same battery power as the Roborock S6
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 operations without frequent interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the Roborock S6 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 S6's operating time is 3h
Xiaomi X10 Plus, at 2h
spends less time than the Roborock S6 with a difference of only 1h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. This is the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home. Roborock S6 has a power consumption of 58W, power is measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
Xiaomi X10 Plus, at 55W
consumes less power than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 3W. Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, but it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets. That's right, many modern robot vacuum cleaners can mop floors in addition to vacuuming.
Such robot vacuums are often referred to as robot vacuum with mopping function models and Roborock S6 is one of those robot vacuums
