Where are the differences?

The D9 robot vacuum cleaner differs a few points from the Roborock S5 Max. Let's go into the differences in detail.

release date (release)

Of course, the age of the two vacuum cleaner robots is interesting for comparison. After all, technology changes over time. The two products are from two consecutive years. The Dreame D9 was launched in the year 2020. Thus, the Roborock S5 Max is older with the year of release 2019.

Which robot vacuum cleaner is falcher?

When it comes to the technical specifications of a robot vacuum cleaner, height is especially important. Robot vacuums with a lower height can clean better under furniture, as they can better drive under cabinets or even the couch. The Dreame D9 and the Roborock S5 Max have an identical device height of 9.6 cm and thus do not differ in the point of height.

Vacuum power comparison

The vacuum power is decisive for the suction power and is specified in Pascal (pa). In comparison, Dreame D9 vs Roborock S5 Max, the Dreame D9 with 2000 pa has a higher suction power and thus performs better. The suction power of the Roborock S5 Max is 2000 pa. This is the suction power at the highest suction level, i.e. the maximum suction power. The higher it is, the better a robot vacuum cleaner can suck.

Does the battery performance differ?

The battery life is identical for both units with 2,5 hours. The longer the battery life, the longer the robot vacuum can clean at a stretch without having to return to its charging station. If you have many square meters, a longer battery life is always better. Thus, neither the Dreame D9, nor the Roborock S5 Max is the winner here.

What can the apps do?

Numerous vacuum robots can now be programmed and also controlled via apps. Adjustable are, for example, premises, maps as well as running times. Some suction robots can then be started conveniently on the go. For both vacuum robots, the Dreame D9 and the Roborock S5 Max, there is an App. The app of the Dreame D9 is . Both vacuum robots allow zone cleaning via the app. Thus, only certain areas are cleaned without having to set up additional obstacles.

Voice control

Many robotic vacuum cleaners can now be controlled by voice assistants, allowing for convenient operation.

The two vacuum robots can be operated with Amazon's Alexa voice control. Neither device can be controlled using Google's voice assistant (Google Assistant).

Is there a wipe function?

In addition to the pure suction function, some vacuum robots also have an integrated wiping function. This combines two devices in one and the cleaning performance is significantly increased - not to mention the time saved. The models are then called suction-wiping robots.

The both vacuum robots can feature an integrated wiping function and are thus both wiping robots.

The water tank of the Dreame D9 is smaller with 270 ml. The capacity of the tank of the Roborock S5 Max is larger with 290 ml. This is a disadvantage for Dreame D9.

Which vacuum motor has the larger collection tank?

Since the collection bin of the Dreame D9 with 570 ml has a larger capacity compared to the Roborock S5 Max, it can hold more dirt. Thus, the dust chamber of the D9 needs to be emptied less frequently. The Roborock S5 Max has a dust bin with 460 ml capacity.
