    Xiaomi Unveils X20 Max Robot Vacuum with Hair-Cutting Feature

    Xiaomi has introduced a new robot vacuum in Europe, named the Robot Vacuum X20 Max. This model was first listed on the brand’s global site in September and has been launched alongside the mid-tier Robot Vacuum X20 Pro.

    Powerful Suction and Features

    The X20 Max is the flagship of the X20 series, boasting an impressive suction power of 8,000Pa, which is 1,000Pa greater than that of the X20 Pro. It features an improved roller brush equipped with hair-cutting technology to minimize tangles, while retaining the same side brush. Additionally, the Max includes enhanced mopping capabilities, featuring two extendable mop arms that reach 2mm (~0.08 inches) from the skirting board. Like its Pro counterpart, this model is equipped with a self-cleaning docking station that can automatically empty the vacuum’s dustbin and its dirty water tanks, as well as refill clean water. Moreover, it can wash the mop using 55°C (~131°F) hot water and dry it with heated air to ensure better hygiene.

    Usage and Availability

    The robot vacuum can operate for a maximum of 120 minutes in standard mode, and it can be controlled through an app. Additionally, you can activate the vacuum using either Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. The Xiaomi Robot Vacuum X20 Max is currently available for purchase in countries such as the UK, Spain, and Germany for a price of £499.99/€649.99. In contrast, the less powerful X20 Pro is available for £399.99/€499.99.

    Xiaomi’s latest offering combines cutting-edge features and convenience, making it a strong contender in the robot vacuum market.

  • Roborock Qrevo S Unveiled: Enhanced Suction Robot Vacuum

    Roborock Qrevo S Unveiled: Enhanced Suction Robot Vacuum

    The recently launched Roborock Qrevo S robot vacuum features an enhanced suction system and is offered at a more affordable price compared to its predecessor. This new Roborock model is equipped with a self-cleaning docking station, automatic mop fitting, and obstacle avoidance capabilities.

    Enhanced Suction Power

    Arriving in the US market following the earlier releases of the Roborock Qrevo and Qrevo MaxV, the Qrevo S boasts a 7kPa suction power, surpassing the standard model. It includes a main rubber brush and dual-spinning mops. When encountering a carpet, the mop is lifted automatically. However, the Qrevo S does not include some features found in the pricier Qrevo MaxV, such as the FlexiArm mop and dirt detection functionality.

    Advanced Navigation and Self-Cleaning

    The Qrevo S employs LDS laser navigation along with obstacle avoidance technology to efficiently perform cleaning tasks. It is designed to operate effectively in rooms up to 30 square meters and can be managed through its companion app. The docking station, slightly shorter than the original model but similar to the MaxV, activates the self-cleaning feature upon the robot’s return. The mop is automatically washed and air-dried, enabling up to seven weeks of hands-free cleaning.

    Pricing & Availability

    The Roborock Qrevo S robot vacuum is priced at $799 in the US. Information regarding its availability in other regions has yet to be disclosed by Roborock.
