Buy the Roborock S50: www.amazon.com/Roborock-Robot...
Our verdict of the Xiaomi Roborock S50 - 9/10: Incredible navigation abilities allow for zoned cleaning, on top of being the most powerful vacuum you can buy at this budget. Alexa support now works for Europeans too. But consider if you might be better served by buying two cheaper devices instead. - Věda a technologie
*A great vacuum💯 for the price. The suction is awesome **MyBest.Tools** excellent for pet hair. The beater attachment works great on the stairs. Not too heavy and easily maneuvered.🤨*
No multiple maps... I had to buy 2 because of the 2 stories house. Totally worth it, though! It is so quiet that you can hear the wheels over the vacuum in quiet mode. For the mopping you don’t need to swap the dust box (!?), the mop attachment itself is a water tank.
I don’t know if it’s an update but it does actually warn you about the full dust bin! 👍
Single biggest downside is that you can’t save the zones, so no “clean the kitchen” or “clean dinner table” commands. I hope they fix it with an update soon, it would make the vacuum 10x better!
as always, great review! for gadgets you're my favorite youtuber. Would love to see even more from you!
I see the love that man can have for his robot vacuum on this. I know the feeling.
We have a 2 story home. I wish they would give an option for a 2nd base station charger so i can move the robot from one level to the next and have it know what level it is on and store the maps accordingly.
Love the CPC464 in the background! Legend!
*I run the m6 daily, and my floors look awesome🌼 **allabout.wiki/Robotic** I wet mop 2 days and dry sweep the rest of the days. When I first got it, I used the included disposable pads. I didn't like them--the dry pad has no depth so if it picks up a chunk of something, like dry cat food, then it pushes it around or drags it around the floor. The wet pad wasn't very absorbent so left streaks and wheel marks.*
Very nice review, this robot vacuum is great. The only thing that bothers me is the fact that when you pick it up it looses the map. Also you mentioned that you dont know when the tray is full but Im pretty sure Ive gotten a notification letting me know to empty the trash bin. The new save map option is a little confusing to me but other than that this thing is great.
How in the hell do you not have more views! Really underrated channel.
I KNOW, RIGHT?!
Beautiful pup!
THANK YOU FOR THE GIVEAWAY. IT'S AMAZING
The biggest problem right now has been the lack of updates. The other brands have added multi floor map saving aside from virtual barriers. For some reason, Roborock has been slow to add simple features to their app.
Where can you buy this in the US? They are only sold by third parties in Amazon :/
but can the vacuum now be scheduled on where to clean now like the s60?
Great Video of Xiaomi Roborock S50
I need one of that for several reasons, having a dog in the house my sister left after emigrating.
Did you show how to set the virtual barrier in the app? Maybe I missed it... I would really need this.
Click into your vacuum from Mi Home, Edit Map (top right) -> Barrier Tape (bottom left). Draw barrier. Done!
Dude that red carpet gives me the impression that the year 1982 crawled up into your house and died.
Great review though!
Oh, I'm fairly sure you're right. We bought the place 4 years ago and the hallways are all done in this crap. It's just so much of the stuff to replace, and bloody awkward corridors due to bent walls (1850s house, extended numerous times).
does it matter if it's dark in the room? Will the roborock perform better detection in broad daylight?
No difference, it shoots a laser out. I suppose really strong sunlight could interfere, but in reality this doesn't happen.
Thank you for the video.
I have an issue and I would like some advice. My robot leaves the dock to start cleaning, then it goes back. All fine. However the next time I start it, it always forgets the map. My apartment is very small. Could you help? I cannot upload the map from Cleaning History either.
Have you updated the firmware? I seem to remember the history feature was added later.
@@MakeUseOf thanks for the reply. You mean the app? I am using Mi Home. I heard there is a new app for Roborock, but I have a Roborock s5, which is not compatible with the new app.
Great video
Just got the T 61
I'm having a dilemma about the navigation that I hope you could solve.
What happens when the furniture gets moved a bit (ie. chairs that can't
always be in the exact same spot)? Does S5/S50 adapt or draws another
map? Also how is the map used by the device? Is
it just for user reference and area selection or does Roborock actually
know what areas are left based on previous mapping (or is it just going
around hoping to hit same doorways and areas via it's lidar?) Thanks.
It'll map out new objects or changed stuff as it goes around again. It's used to select which areas to clean, and can actually determine rooms I believe in the latest firmware (haven't tried that though). It doesn't strictly determine a full clean though - like if a wall wasn't there, it wouldn't stop there anyway jsut because there was once a wall on the map, it would just redraw the new map.
@@MakeUseOf Thank you for the quick reply.
English is my second language so I'm having a little trouble discerning the answer. Does that mean it draws a new map every time something is changed/moved a bit or it just adapts the existing one and goes through the rest of remaining map as it was instead of wandering around? If I understood correctly iAdapt 3.0 in Roomba adapts the existing map and goes about its business instead of rediscovering things so I'm wondering if S5 does the same.
Thank you.
I want to clean my room too.
Cute doggie.
I'm not sure why people complain that this vac doesn't do 2 floors simply because it redraws a new map. When you use your old upright vac to do the second floor, don't you change your pattern of how you vacuum? Just move your base station upstairs when you want to vac there and it will do just fine.
That ruins the whole point of being able to selectively clean though if you have to generate a new map each time.
Nice giveaway
LAST update allows you to put the robot in any room, it will detect where it is.
Well that's pretty incredible then.
@@MakeUseOf The combination of roborock and HomeKit is amazing. Homebridge for RaspberryPi + homebridge-xiaomi-roborock-vacuum-zones module and you can start cleaning any room using Siri. And starting cleaning the entire house with Siri is possible without rasppberypi, only from the application itself.
What about the laser and your pets eyes? I want to win one of these vacuums more than I want to win anything else. They are just too expensive. In Canada anyways.
Not sure why, but your little widget doesn't seem to think my Twitter handle is real. I follow but it keeps kicking it out saying "throwaway accounts are not allowed."
Might do to look into that.
Hi Skuzzy, I'm afraid that's a decision Gleam makes (our giveaway system provider). "Throwaway" accounts are not eligible for entry due to the fact they're just used to enter competitions. If you use your Twitter account in a more realistic way - by posting real tweets, just not retweets and competition entries - the algorithm should automatically start accepting your entries. Sorry, nothing I can do about that one..
Hopeee i wiin the giveawaaayyy
Hi is it not good if is double store house ? If not why ? Thank you
No robot vacuum can go up or down stairs, so this model in particular makes no difference. Buy two!
@@MakeUseOf would be nice to buy two but my husband already is against to buy even one lol I am still searching and looking is it really worth to buy one or to stick with standard hoover .
@@MakeUseOf I was asking about double storage house because I hear that it's problem with maps ..that the robot making scan again and again when you use up sters and down sters so it's start everything from start

Shame the S50 looks so ugly like an upside down bucket. The 360 S6 looks like it was designed by Apple.
T6 is better
