roborock S50 Smart Robot Vacuum Cleaner

Absolutely love it! It has better perfomances then Roomba 980! For so much lower price! 5200 mAh, 250 m2, 2,5h, 1800 Pa, 12 sensors... Yes, instructions are in Chinese by default, but that can be easely changed, just watch for 7-minutes instruction on YouTube and apply. My "Kli-Mi" (yes, she has a name :-)) works in English perfectly. And yes, you will need an adapter (if you don't get it in your package), that will cost you what, 1 usd?... I am amazed how much dust there is in my flat! Kli-Mi is walking around every other day, twice, and the dustbin is full every time. She has very efficient cleaning algorithm, 4 brush speeds, spacy dustbin and you can monitor on your mob where she is right now and what she has been cleaned already. So you can go in that cleaned room, kitchen for example, and do some other activities, while she is cleaning the rest of the apartment. As a single mum with lots of responsibilities, I am so grateful for such a great piece of technology at affordable price!

Such an amazing helper!

I am sooo sory I haven't bought this little perfect crature earlier. It made my life so much easier.

I chose this Robot Vacuum 1st Generation after comparing many brands and models from my country and the Amazon site. We made an excellent purchase, a high-performance device and a very convenient price. I feared, however, that will not climb my carpets very thick (2.5 is - 3 cm) or that would circumvent my fur rugs that have the color dark brown. My fears were unfounded because my robot vacuum cleaner sucks very well all these areas, as can be seen in the attached photos. I am very pleased with my machine, which makes me a saving electricity notable: vacuuming my whole apartment (four rooms, with large hallway, kitchen and two bathrooms) takes 83 minutes and the battery stays 60% charged. That's why I recommend the Original Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum 1st Generation.

Suggestion

I have identified only a minor deficiency. The rotary side brush cleans very well beside the wall, but is less efficient at the corners of the room.

The vacuum cleaner measures 345 x 345 x 96 mm and weighs 3.8 kg. The plastic surface of the white color is decent, and you can not see the dust on it. It is equipped with a 5200 mAh battery, a triple processor and 12 sensors. These include, for example, laser LDS distance sensor, ultrasonic radar sensor, staircase detector, gyroscope, compass, and more. It has an engine with suction pressure of 1800 Pa. The impurities are trapped in a 0.42 liter container that has a HEPA filter to capture even the finest dust grains.

At the top of the robot is LDS sensor, in the front movable bumper. The top lid can be easily folded to reach the waste container. There are two brushes for cleaning, the main one is located in the middle of the bottom, the side brush is located on the right side.

Charging the vacuum cleaner is simple, just put it back for the first time to the docking station's induction surfaces and the robot starts charging. All other charges are already running automatically as the robot always starts and ends in the docking station.

It has no problems with various surfaces, it can move on hard floors and regular carpets. I did not have the opportunity to test the long hair carpet. The HEPA filter in the waste container is of good quality, no smoke is around it and it does not penetrate into the bowl of the vacuum cleaner.

Vacuuming is systematic, not chaotic, as with other vacuum cleaners. First, the Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner runs the circumference of the room and then moves from side to side in straight S-lines. The vacuum cleaner uses SLAM technology, which means simultaneous localization and mapping. This technology is used in autonomous cars.

The battery lasts very long. The robot sucks about 1 m² per minute and it discharge about 0.5% of the battery / m². The manufacturer states that the robot can handle up to 250m2 / 150min on a single charge. If the battery has only 20%, it will return to the station to charge it. After recharging to 80%, the cleaning will resume.

You can use Mi Home app to control the robot, which is available on both Google Play and the App Store. When you start and sign in, you can choose to connect to Chinese or US servers. I recommend choosing Chinese because the American version has significantly fewer features. However, you do not have to worry about the language barrier because the Chinese environment is also available in English.

Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner is an intelligent, trouble-free and reliable robot vacuum cleaner, which makes it a great help to the home. Thanks to the updates, Mi Home is already working in English and the robot can communicate in the same language. The competition is much more expensive than the Xiaomi robotic vacuum cleaner. The competitor is, for example, iRobot Roomba 896 for 599 euros. . If you decide to buy a vacuum cleaner abroad, it can be purchased even under half of the Roomba vacuum price.

I'd been watching the Xiaomi vacuum for over a year. I've watched and read all the reviews. I've read all the (translated) manuals. Guides, comparisons with every other robot vac, past and present. I've used it for about 2 weeks now, every day. Large multi floor house with mainly hardwood and two cats. It's difficult for one person to keep clean. Two things kept me from buying. 1, price, (gearbest tends to have a higher price then other places) 2, lack of english language support. I stumbled on a great discount which brought it down to just over 400$ (CDN) Door to door, with shipping and duty was just over 500$. Xiaomi also recently added English language support and an English voice pack.

I will highlight the best points as I see it. Number 1 is the path finding AI. It's bloody brilliant. Hands down the best on the market. Lidar scan of room space, and breakdown of cleaning pattern into a grid of 30' squares. First mapping the outer perimeter then it follows a switchback pattern across each zone. If it encounters a chair leg etc, it will do a circle around it then continue in it's path. It has no trouble navigating many obstacles in close proximity and does not miss any spots. It's gentile on your furniture as well. It's quite amazing to watch. You can literally see it thinking as it pathfinds it's way around tricky areas. (I've named mine BB-8, I hope someone hacks a BB-8 voice pack for it!)

Great battery capacity. After an 84min vacuuming on the "balanced" setting, my battery hits about 54% So it could keep going quite a while before a charge is required.

One thing none of the reviews mention (at least I haven't heard mention) is that YOU DO NOT have to connect to your network or use the app on your phone to run the vac. I literally unpacked it, plugged in the charging base, put the vac down against the charger turned it on and hit the "power/start" button and it began it's cleaning cycle before I'd even downloaded the app.

Watching the cleaning path on the app, while somewhat of a novelty, is actually useful to know where the vac has cleaned vs, where it's still got to clean.

Can easily carried to another floor, with the charging base as well and start cleaning immediately.

Great for pet hair on hardwood, not as good on carpets but still very effective. If you've got pets you should consider it. Not any vac, THIS vac. It's path-finding is what makes it brilliant.

I like to clean while it's vacuuming. I go around the space with a quality duster, and dust everything from all the high surfaces onto the floor, Regardless of it's few flaws (below) It's a huge time saver and it encourages me to keep my place tidy, saves me hours of vacuuming and gets areas I'd miss.

Catch bin is a bit small. Your first few cleanings will most likely require multiple empties of it's bin as it gets dirt/dust/hair that you don't even know exists. Once you're just maintaining a floor, it will only require periodic emptying depending on how often you run it.

The Mi-Home app requires seemingly ridiculous levels of permissions. Though the app is used for all of their smart home products and they've got a lot, so I can understand most of them. But to just run the vac, it's crazy. When I set it up, I first blocked everything I could, which caused the inability to complete the initial network setup, took about an hour of messing to realize I had to reset all the permissions to do the initial setup. It immediately connected, I was able to download an update, write it to the vac and it worked perfectly. Once done, I just went ahead and re-blocked everything and it continues to communicate fine. There is an option to put a shortcut to the vacuum portion of the app on your home screen so you can avoid running the full Mi-Home app. I also set up a second throwaway email address to do the initial account setup in the Mi-home app.

Connection to app is sometimes flaky. There is a delay as the path draws on the map and it sometimes disconnects from the robot and re-connects. This may be a factor of my particular router, but 99% of the time it always re-connects within 10 to 20 seconds.

Might have trouble with shag carpets or transitions higher than 15mm, I have mainly medium pile fairly dense area rugs. Can have trouble climbing tall ones, but it hasn't given up on getting onto one yet! It's smart enough to figure out alternative paths and will always complete an area.

It can get lost and unable to return to the charger in one circumstance, but it's easy to avoid. When you start a cleaning cycle from the charging base, it clears the map in memory and begins to generate a new map as it cleans
