Roborock S5 Max vs S6 - Where are the differences?
Where are the differences?
The two vacuuming robots of the Roborock brand differ in a few ways. Let's take a look at the differences between the Roborock S5 Max* and Roborock S6* in comparison.
release date (release)
The age is of course interesting when comparing the two vacuum cleaner robots. Here both devices originate from the year 2019. Thus, both devices would have the same technical starting point.
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 Roborock S5 Max and the Roborock S6 have an identical device height of 9.6 cm and thus do not differ in the point of height.
Vacuum power comparison
Decisive for the suction power is the suction force, which is indicated in Pascal (abbreviated: pa). Here we have no difference between the Roborock S5 Max and Roborock S6. The maximum suction force is identical to 2000 pa. It is the suction force at the maximum suction level. Depending on the suction level, the value may of course be lower.
Does the battery performance differ?
The Roborock S5 Max has a lower battery life than 2,5 hours with the Roborock S6 in comparison. The longer battery life means the Roborock S6 has to return to the charging station less often, allowing it to clean longer at a stretch. This also allows the model to vacuum more quad meters at a time.
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 Roborock S5 Max and the Roborock S6, there is an App. Here both vacuum cleaners work with the same app: Roborock. However, this does not necessarily mean that the functions are identical. Often, manufacturers only unlock new functions for newer vacuum robots. 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 Roborock S5 Max has a larger capacity with 290 ml than that of the Roborock S6 with only 140 ml. This is an advantage for Roborock S5 Max.
Which vacuum motor has the larger collection tank?
The dust chamber of the Roborock S5 Max with 460 ml is smaller than that of the Roborock S6 with 480 ml. The larger the dirt collection bin, the less frequently it needs to be emptied. So the larger capacity in the dust bin is an advantage for the Roborock S6.
