Roborock S6 vs S6 MaxV - 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 S6* and Roborock S6 MaxV* in comparison.
release date (release)
For the comparison of the two vacuum cleaner robots it is of course the age of the models interesting. After all, every year there is new technology. The products were introduced in two consecutive years. The Roborock S6 was introduced in the year 2019. Thus the Roborock S6 MaxV is newer from the year 2020.
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 S6 and the Roborock S6 MaxV have an identical device height of 9.6 cm and thus do not differ in the point of height.
Vacuum power comparison
The suction power depends on the maximum suction force. This is specified in Pascal (short: pa). In this point there is a difference in the comparison Roborock S6 vs Roborock S6 MaxV. The Roborock S6 MaxV offers higher suction power in comparison with 2500 pa. This makes it the better vacuum robot in this point. However, the suction power is lower depending on the suction level. The maximum suction power is always indicated. With the Roborock S6 you get a suction power of 2000 pa.
Does the battery performance differ?
The battery life is identical for both units with 3,0 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 Roborock S6, nor the Roborock S6 MaxV 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 Roborock S6 and the Roborock S6 MaxV, 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 S6 is smaller with 140 ml. The capacity of the tank of the Roborock S6 MaxV is larger with 300 ml. This is a disadvantage for Roborock S6.
Which vacuum motor has the larger collection tank?
Since the collection bin of the Roborock S6 with 480 ml has a larger capacity compared to the Roborock S6 MaxV, it can hold more dirt. Thus, the dust chamber of the S6 needs to be emptied less frequently. The Roborock S6 MaxV has a dust bin with 460 ml capacity.
