The Roborock S5 only comes with the gravity tank, meaning water will trickle down towards the pad. So it's important that you remove the water tank after every run or risk having a puddle of water. The S5 Max solves this with its electronic water tank that will only release water to the pad when the vacuum is running.

The biggest difference between the first and second-generation Xiaomi is the app improvements and app. But performance remains the same even with a power upgrade. However, the RoboRock has a carpet mode option that increases suction on carpet.
Some people have asked if the First gen Xiaomi had the zone cleanup and it does not. Only the RoboRock has that features and other feature upgrades.
It's worth to mention that the 1st generation got the software update and now has also zone cleanup, like the v2 :)
what about the virtual app wall, where you can draw a line or a box it shall not clean... Im on an Ipad and here it only zone cleaning.
the magnetic strip is a no go and there are no hurdles for not implementing virtual wall in the app on v1 as its only software related now that they have implemented zone cleaning on gen1
@@JAKOB1977 As a workaround, you can use zones as virtual walls and you can add up to 5 zones per cleanup. Maybe in the future they will implement software virtual wall, but this is the question for Xiaomi product managers or developers. :)
@@16klu so virtual walls are the only difference besides being able to wiping the floor with water?
So far so good with this vacuum. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.
thanks. Very thorough. I just bought a 1st gen and now (thanks to your review) I now know that a 2nd gen washable filter will fit in my 1st gen.
Very good and informative video. Thank you very much!
Especially the interchangeability of the filters is very interesting for me.
if you press and hold the home button on the 1st Gen for like 4 seconds it triggers the spot clean
thanks for a very thorough review. thanks for that. main point: buy 1st gen + 2nd gen filter
I know has been a long time since this video. The first generation is by far better in navigation and "dealing" with obstacles. It's lacks the mopping function but anyway. The second generation also is a little taller than the first, this minimum difference makes a great difference in underneath what can clean or not. I have the 2 models since 2019 and I have to "Nanny" the 2nd Gen every time its working. I have many equipment at my house and the floor it's not perfectly flat.. First Gen have not issue with any obstacles. I repeat by far better. Both are using latest firmware update. Greetings from Asunción Paraguay
You should test these 2 on different carpet to see the differences :)
they have reason to change the charging port . the second gen have mop pad and water tank so they don't want it lock it up in the charger . and the robot with the charger port on the side never be in front of the robot when it moving . because they dont want the contact port hit to the metal material so the - port will connect to + port
Very good video. THX!!
The third vacuum cleaner is under the bed?
:-)
Dear sir could you tell me what the iLife a4 an A4s does the green light stay on the a4 mine does an the A4s it goes out is that a problem on the a4 ???
Hi! You have any review on the Xiaomi mop 2S? I cant find it, i dont know if it has a diferent name or model
FYI, the 2nd Gen has the wheel springs flipped compared to the 1st Gen. This improves the climbing ability of the vacuums dramatically.
The 1st Gen has trouble climbing thresholds in between rooms and thicker carpets. The 2nd Gen climbs these considerably better because of the aforementioned wheels spring mechanism being flipped.
Thanks for the info
Love the xiaomi V2 recomend it to everyone! BUT what crap "Comparison and Review" it is not hard to do some re-search and give correct info to your viewers. Best for them and best for you! This video is more like a unboxing video with more guesses than helpful facts for the viewer that thinking about getting one of thees. Nice to see them side by side :) Its the best you can get for your money
Where can I find original hepa filter? Is there a part code available?
Hello. Does the plastic material casing turns yellowish overtime?
Can someone pls tell me...
If I have carpeted rooms but want the rest of the house mopped with xiaomi, how will that work?
Will it drag in the wet mop across my carpeted rooms?
Thanks !
I mean dont use mop with carpets download the app and there you can select zone to clean. So it doesnt clean the carpet then you take off mop and then you can just. Let it clean the rest.
Only the S60 recognizes carpets if I'm not mistaken. Otherwise you'll have to remove the mop.
10:14 You forget that the robots were in different positions, in fact the side sensor is always in the right. LOL
The vídeos are very good! I actually have one doubt! What’s the best to buy considering the cost and benefits? The first generation update and now can use the zone clean, so it’s almost the same! What’s the biggest diference between they?(not considering the mop option)(is the mop is really useful or not? How many times I have to fill up the reservatory to clean a 84m2 apartment in medium?) thanks
What i think is 1st gen is best as mop doesn't perform well. It just clean but that cannot clear the stains
You didn't show how long it took Version 1 to clean like you did with version 2...also how much battery life they each used during the cleaning would be helpful.
Thank you for the info... I got my dreame d9 last may 11.. so far so good... Sometimes I shift the position of chair or table after the first cleaning... I wonder if the robot got confused. I think it will not go there even if the appliance is not there anymore. I'm in my senior yr and I'm thankful for this robot I dont have to sweep under the bed
where can I buy a washable 2nd gen filter to fit in the 1st gen ?
You can buy very cheap filters from Aliexpress. www.aliexpress.com/item/2018-Fashion-Home-Garden-Replacement-Washable-Filters-For-Xiaomi-Mi-Robot-Robotic-Vacuum-Cleaner/32896357430.html
Thanks man! I was looking for information if I can fit the S50 parts into the first generation!
EXCELLENT
Dose roborock can detect dog poop ? my bobsweep not ... vacuum and spread it all over the floor .. .. ..... 😒
it was really O_O irritating to watch that robot vacuum took several minute to detect the other left grains... on the floor... thats one negative ~ I'll just stick to brushing floors myself.
the second gen transparent dish is just ugly and weird...does it work without it? I mean just the charger
The bumper on the back and the wall sensor on the right?:))) You don`t have to be very smart to see is with the front at the wall.
There wheels are not the same. The way they are mounted is different that is why the 2nd gen can climb high pile carpets better
Now you can get the 2nd gen in black colour as well. Great video!! Thanks.
Cecotec Conga should be included in there comparison as I think it is the best.
Hi, does anyone uses 2nd generation (washable) filter to 1st generation ? it is working efficiently ? does Xiaomi approve this?
Strange result because the 1st generation didn't remove most of the oats in the left corner. That was more than 1 gram. So it does not add up. The second generation picked up more but according to the balance, it picked up less. I find that strange. Maybe your balance is not very accurate?
I see you are regretting your purchase.
this is one of the best purchases I have made🌼 have had this for over a year and a half and love it! it cleans and mops great and leaves the whole house spotless. highly recommend!
Please can u help me which robotic vaccum are u using

It was a really complete review, thanks !
Hello there. The map does not appear in my application. The house is completely cleaned and returned to the dock.
You basically proved that the 2nd generation vacuum wearing an used 1st generation filter and without the mopping feature attached, cleans about the same than a 1st generation vacuum wearing a new 2nd generation filter.
You should show how to clean the brush (with hair in it)
thanks a lot friend! congratulations for the apresentation!
Hey, I've watched a lot of your videos and it helped me make a decision on buying a 1st gen Xiaomi a long time ago.
Just wondering if you have any opinion on the new "Xiaomi Mi 2 in 1 Sweeping Mopping Robot Vacuum Cleaner"?
And will you be doing a review on it?
I have not tested the latest one, but once I do I'll publish a video about it :)
The 1st gen has a signal for the dust bin:Dust bin removed.
The second gen has that too
Thanks for seeing if the filters interchange, that’s a step above most. Good review. Also the wheels are the same but installed backwards to help it up from tile to carpet or rug.
I love and appreciate your comparison products. By the way, Is this two robots can be set in automation mode, for example , IF the door sensor open then the robot are activated to clean your room.
I have the right one and its very good .I rekomend this cleaner .
Thank you for a very good comparison
Is it too optimistic to hope for a 3. generation this year, I dont know how big a spread there was between 1. and 2. gen
Are they both the same in terms of going over cables and laptop cords?
I have read that Xiaomi Roborock S50 does not require wifi to run. You supposedly just need wifi in order to set up the vacuum for the first time. What exactly are the drawbacks of running the bot in "offline" mode?
first Gen does the same. Need wifi to set it up. Keeps running afterwards at set times
have you ever caught the first gen vac sucking off the 2nd gen robot?
Thanks for the review. May I know how does the virtual mapping work (or if it works) if I live in a 3 storey house and put it to work, will it remember the virtual map/route of the 3 different levels of my house? I plan to cover one storey/level a day when I’m out to work. Thank you.
Have you had a chance to find an answer to that question ? I have just the same
the gen1 also got the same 3 features. 1:22 the docking button doubles as multiple features.. hold it for some time it will do spot cleaning or perhaps its the power button that does it cant remember, but it got the full ability like gen2 in its button without app, you just need to hold it for a moment..
the gen1 filter is 98% effective and gen2 is 95% for allergic people is a pro that they can pick up the gen1 filter that put fewer dust particles out in the air.
haha + for master of 2nd plan from the end of the movie:D he looks sooooo bored :P
Where can I buy the gen 2 filters I have both model vacuums and want to keep spares of the gen 2 filters to use in both, I can only find the old gen1 HEPA filters online
Hi, The Roborock has started to sell its products on Amazon, and you can purchase the gen 2 filter on it, link: a.co/0um40wr
Gearbest has them...
You can try Banggood: www.banggood.com/2pcs-Original-Xiaomi-Robotic-Vacuum-Cleaner-Filter-for-mi-Robot-Filters-Replacements-Accessory-p-1135909.html?p=YH081222183599201806
I read that the first generation has a problem with carpets or obstacles. The second generation passes through a dense carpet despite the obstacles. It is possible to do a carpet test. And test the obstacle height in mm?
2 generations cross the obstacle high 17mm.
ruclips.net/video/J50Cq11yG_M/видео.html
Can I mix water and detergent inside the machine? Or only water for the second generation? Tahnks!
I would not recommend it because it may shorten the life of the filters inside the water tank. What I'd recommend is spraying detergent or any cleaner on the pad itself. Soak the pad in water and wring out excess water first before doing that.
Can you make a race between all brands , who is the one going back to charge faster?
With a margin of error, 1 gram is basically no difference. You need to also do a comparison on various different pile length of carpet, as the v2 is significantly better on thicker carpet or shag pile rugs
it's not second generation Xiaomi, those two machines have different Logos
Gen 2 is marketed as roborock
Comparandolo con el neto que tienes debajo de la cama, cual consideras mejor
Nothing is better than a old and good broom! Too many time spend to clean and waste of energy.
Yeah, let me know when I'll be able to go outside and play with my children while the broom will take care of the cleaning inside my house.
Witch is better? Ferst or second generation?
In terms of cleaning both of these robots are close. The difference is negligible. The question you need to answer is do I want to spend the extra $200 or so for the app upgrades (zone cleanup mode, carpet mode, etc.) and mopping feature?
I love my first gen. I got it for the wife for Christmas. We do manual mop..So, it was a no brainier pick for us and for $200 less than 2nd gen.
As far as cleaning the Bin I dump mine in Trash. I then use Air to blow out the filter and bin. AIR works great...us Can air or Shop air like me.
the seconds ver is not worth.
You are paying 150-200$ more for buffering the map and send it to a room plus a wet cloth
I don't understand why cleaning by zone isn't available on first generation... :/
to lazy to program it.....actually they do not want to spend the money on programing no profit in that..Just MHO....
the six arm side brushes are much more efficient .. I have on my Roomba ..
but you paid $400 more for that 2 cent 6 arm brush.....
You can place a six arm brush on these ones too.
I hav the second gen :p
Can it clean rough surfaces ? As my home surface is roughly cemented, not tiled
