It'd be great to see an in depth testing of the obstacle recognition and how well it works in real world application. With such a rich sensor suite it would be a shame to not give it some time.
Nice tutorial, but I think it could be better if you always announce/show which button you're pushing as you go through the app. There are plenty of times where your app just changes screens with no explanation as to what buttons/menus you're tapping.
Hey, Does roborock have some maintenance info like deebot has? my father in law has a deebot and showed when he needs to clean and replace stuff. Im looking into getting a roborock and it would be nice to know about that
Can you have a dock on each level? It would be nice to have at least a charging dock on your second level so when done it will charge, never leaving you with a dead robot.
No I have not. Only have one dock. The dock robot combo doesn't come with the charger that comes with the stand alone bot. When I bought the combo it was the same price as if you bought them seperate. Might be a good idea to check the price and by them separate to get the extra charger and test.
Do you know if you can change the mopping direction per room? I have vinyl plank floor with some groove texture. So it would be better if you could wipe with the grain opposed to across the grain.
Would like to see what minimum clearance height is needed to go under furniture. Ideallly want to put opening under a door as low as possible that would allow vacuum to go under a door.
Thanks! It's good that you can specify cleaning types per room, but I was hoping for finer control; I've got a thin rug that can only handle light suction, it'd be nice to flag that but let it do normal cleaning around it.
the only thing i need to know is when the F is the ultra dock coming in australia.. my s7 maxv needs a companion and i am so tempted to just buy the old auto dock right now..
Hey Adam, there is a Star Trek Easter egg in the pin n go section. It is a shield icon that’s red on the top right. It attacks inferior robot vacuums! So it looks around and if it sees a robot vacuum (ex. Shark Dumb-Q), it will go to it and aggressively bump it. When it sees one, an alarm sound effect goes off and when it hits it, it has a victory sound. Put out all of your bad bad robots (like the Shark IQ, Shark EZ, Shark ION, etc.) and have the s7 MAXV hit all of them. It will be pretty funny!
idea: first, vacuum and mop your main floor with max suction power and max scrub intensity. second, vacuum the entire upstairs with the same modes, but without the map pad of course. also try bringing the base upstairs as well. what will it do?
Does it keep updating the map in subsequent runs? Say initially I have a big pile of stuff in a section that it treats as a wall. Later when I clear it out, do I have to do another specific mapping run to update the map, or just let it do normal cleanings and it keeps updating?
Have the regular S7, no you cannot do that, even with this one from the vid. Although that's exactly what i manually tell to do when mopping my house. They should add that feature. A workaround i use is set it to vacuum the room and then set a schedule for 15 or 20 min later, you should now how it usually takes to vacuum that room, to mop the room, if you set the schedule for repeat 'once' then it will be deleted after it's finiished.
@@xeon2k8 I also have the S7 and i know its not there, thats why i was asking, because i saw new features in the app..... I will just pop the mop in after vacuuming is finished and run the whole process again. 👍
@@callofmarty that would be idiotic from them that this one has it and not the regular S7, from older Roborocks i had they are not known for crippling old models. You can also insert the mop before vacuuming and you havent got to be pending of when it's done vacuuming for putting the mop.
In future videos could you let us know how to use the mopping and vac features together when you have some rooms with plush carpet connected to rooms with hard floors without getting the carpet wet? This is the only thing that would keep me from buying this model.
Why did you choose that you have pets when you do not have any? The obstacle recognition they refer to, is about identifying pets, so the machine will not disdurb pets. It has nothing to do with identifying all the other objects in the house. That part will be just as good as when not telling the app that you have pets.
Do you need to carry your base / dock everytime you clean upstairs? Or how is this working? Thank you!
Great video. Covered all the important stuff.
Looking forward to this in the testing room for the pick up test with the extra power and also the gauntlet
Gr8 Vid! Thanks for taking the time to review. Is there a limit as to how many no go zones can be applied

Hi, thank you for the video, can you please explain how to add another floor?

Can’t wait for you to do the s8 ultra. I’m thinking that is the one. Hope you get it early so we can see the outcome

What’s better the mi home or Roborock app?
where do I start. nobody had a setup video that says the 1st thing to do. I am guessing mapping??
Do you know if you can change the mopping direction per room? I have vinyl plank floor with some groove texture. So it would be better if you could wipe with the grain opposed to across the grain.
You can set it to directional cleaning yea
Do you have the S8 pro ultra?

Hello, i have the same robot, can i ask you how to get the feature ReactiveAI obstacle, i dont have it on my roborock app. What should i do? Thanks
how 2 person in same time can connect to robot with 2 different cellphone ?
Hey Adam, how did you set it to scan your floor plan? did you just manually do 'pin to go' to each point or is there an automatic function?
On the first time running it will just go on the map the house really quick it says it right on the main page of the app
@@AdamsReviews they must have added it in the last year since last time i mapped the floor wasnt there. Glad to hear, finally.

How do you turn on the camera ?
the only thing i need to know is when the F is the ultra dock coming in australia.. my s7 maxv needs a companion and i am so tempted to just buy the old auto dock right now..
I’d love to see which robot vacuum is best for sunken living areas and DIYed ramps (10-15in in height)
The J7 is decent, but not spectacular at this
Can you do a spot mop with this machine?

How do you make sure it will empty when full of dirt and hair
Does it keep updating the map in subsequent runs? Say initially I have a big pile of stuff in a section that it treats as a wall. Later when I clear it out, do I have to do another specific mapping run to update the map, or just let it do normal cleanings and it keeps updating?
It shoudl do it automatically. It will see the stuff is gone and then try and clean there.
I want clean and dry the pads vacuum, wet the pads then mop
Just got the S8. Trying to figure out how to divide the rooms is difficult and tedious.
For the price, it’s beyond ridiculous
Is there a difference using the “mi home” app vs the “Roborock” app?
Not sure I found that the mi home works better when I have multiple robots.
Roborock S7 MaxV Vs IRobot S9 please.
I can’t use the deep mopping, the wheels slip on my tiles because it goes over the wet floor on each run. Really annoying.
can you set something like first, vacuum room #1 and then after you finished Mop the room #1 ??
I will try and test that,

Yes will do thanks
What to do if it's not charging
Can i use the auto mode to clean the house when there is no wifi?
Yes it still will work without wifi
When’s the review coming?
I will have some videos about it first impressions and stuff like that but the full overall review will be in a few weeks.
@@AdamsReviews oh cool!
Would be easier to work maps if they were in 3D specially setting up keep out zones.
😊
Why not use roborocks own app that supports more functions normally..for example I couldn't see your room 3d modelled that s7 max should support
I will check it out.

Second!
FIRST.
The map editing is garbage. What's the point of paying all this money and it's not working with divider it's ridiculous
