Shark IQ RV1001AE cleans all floor types, this comes in handy, since different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum cleaner is advertised as being able to clean all floor types, it means that the vacuum is designed and equipped to clean several flooring materials without much limitations.
Roborock S7 MaxV Plus aslo cleans all floor types, meaning it is designed to be versatile, providing best cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. A 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.
Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g. the Shark IQ RV1001AE having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not. Roborock S7 MaxV Plus also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation states how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area.
Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't. Shark IQ RV1001AE has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's path, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Roborock S7 MaxV Plus has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its surroundings, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and the Shark IQ RV1001AE supports this feature. 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 S7 MaxV Plus also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in rooms where there are areas that you want to restrict access to the robot vacuum.

The Shark IQ RV1001AE's dustbin capacity is at 0.6L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the vacuum holds before it requires to be emptied.
The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, at 0.4L
carries less dirt than the Shark IQ RV1001AE with a difference of only 0.2L
The dustbin capacity varies widely among different 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. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance. Shark IQ RV1001AE adjusts its height to match this requirement, for example, it may raise itself slightly when transitioning to a carpet to allow for 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 Roborock S7 MaxV Plus with advanced sensor technology and adaptability. This feature is essential for maintaining cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles. Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to notify users when the dirt collection container is full and needs to be emptied.
Shark IQ RV1001AE supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged thus performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied. Roborock S7 MaxV Plus 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.
