Roborock's New Saros Z70 Robot Is Insane

[@SubjectE57]

If you have two different brands cleaning the floor at the same time do they fight each other?

[@vacuumnerds]

Robot battle!🤖

[@scotchbox]

Some robot manufacturers (including Roborock) hide an easter egg mode where their robot will play fight music and "attack" other robots they detect. Once they updated it for valentines day so it would bump into them with a loud kissing sound effect instead 😂. Maybe we'll see arm wrestling one day lol

[@hyy3657]

a new competition has begun!

[@vacuumnerds]

Competition really benefits everyone!

[@KhangttheLifehacktester]

Bro that is the robot vacuum of the future!

[@HygienistDentist]

So cool!!!! Can't wait for this to be used in the real world and for competition to one-up each other!

[@Eric-tb6sk]

more moving parts means more ways to break or be told 'replace part'.

[@huibertduijzer6705]

300 gram is approximately 2/3 of a pound, Not 1/3 of a pound as mentioned in the video. It's actually quite a lot of weight considering how fragile it looked in the video. 300 gram means it might be able to lift your running shoes, slippers and most dog/cat toys laying around.

[@vacuumnerds]

Sorry for my bad onsite math!

[@tjhf96]

I bet that dust bin is SMALL😬

[@vacuumnerds]

No word on the dust bin size but if the robot can finish a couple of rooms before heading back to the base station it will be competitive

[@feuby8480]

@tjhf96 honnestly as it has an auto empty station it doesn't really matter. At this level of things, it can resume vacuuming, so it just empty it, and resume where it was, no issue. It may cause a slight delay in overall vacuuming time, but to quote technology connexions on dishwashers : you know what I'm not doing while it's vacuuming ? Yes that's right, vacuuming. So except if it's noisy (which they may be tbh), the overall time of vaccuming is not really an issue.

[@galapiat]

Not necessarily as they have been able to.remove the spinning LIDAR

[@izzarulhadi5163]

this is too adorable

[@nightowl480]

I want this! Watching it reminds me of the robot war tv program I watched as a kid. When they attacked each other and fliped the other upside down or destroyed them.

[@scotchbox]

It's finally happening! We've been promised robots butlers for 70 years, and it's finally happening. Another decade and something the size of a toddler will be able to keep a significant amount of your house tidy.

[@vacuumnerds]

Yes, it's happening. Theses robots are becoming very interesting, and we're here for it!

[@sirdaniel1862]

Anybody got the release date an price? And preferd in euro

[@vacuumnerds]

Release date is Q2 2025. No price yet.

[@xyz11zxc11]

That's innovative thinking!

[@DawgBone]

Although I can see it potentially grabbing at things it shouldn't, but the arm could be useful for when it get's stuck... The added weight probably kills battery life, but probably improves vacuuming and mopping....

[@alunknown2041]

First prototype vacuum. Only supports 300gram as well very slow. After version 5 it becomes interesting

[@vacuumnerds]

Yes, this is a prototype. They expect a consumer release in the first half of 2025.

[@sherryfuzesy9030]

My cat said he won’t stop meowing until I buy him the roborock to clean up his toys around the house🐈‍⬛

[@vacuumnerds]

I can’t wait till my cats see this in action! 😂

[@Smedsters]

I can’t wait until a robovac can accurately avoid pet poop and barf!

[@vacuumnerds]

@@Smedsters If you want 100% accuracy you will be waiting for a decade or longer imho. I'm fairly sure it could be done now, but the cost would likely enormous. The accuracy is improving every lifecycle though, so I expect it will be close to 100% within a couple years. These are the interesting cost/benefit challenges that all the manufacturers are currently investing a lot of development $ into.

[@TrueBlueAustralian]

Imagine if your dog left a turd on the floor, it would try and pick it up and fail and keep trying and getting mess all over the hand pickup, and then it moves on to your clothes and gets crap all over those too. lol

[@magickauras]

Ur dog shouldn't be leaving turds inside

[@vacuumnerds]

Right now it’s designed to pick up 4 different objects like socks and slippers.

[@sergey9986]

If they could use this arm to climb over small barriers up to 3cm, that would be great

[@vacuumnerds]

It does climb over small ledges without using the arm.

[@sergey9986]

@@vacuumnerds how small is small?

[@vacuumnerds]

@@sergey9986 4cm

[@feuby8480]

That's sooo coool !

[@quaintserpent]

Me still waiting for robot vacuums to climb stairs: 💀

[@vacuumnerds]

There was one manufacturer who had some kind of demo unit last year, but it never got released. I think a fundamental problem is that these robots are about 16-20" wide. That's much wider than a typical step, so without some incredibly complicated mechanism, they are going to fall off.

[@AlanRedmond1]

In my house it would use up all it's battery picking up circa 100 lego pieces everyday.

[@vacuumnerds]

[@DUANEYAISER]

I knew tech would learn to pick up socks before my child would.

[@vacuumnerds]

Haha!

[@GregoriiRadush]

Роборок шикарный ❤❤❤❤

[@puffnstuff12]

I can't wait until its available in the US.

[@vacuumnerds]

They say first half of this year

[@arpadfuzy6862]

Okay, but what will it do when it has to get her socks out from under a chair, or a bed, or a piece of furniture?

[@alextheonewarrior]

It doesn't grab them? What kind of question is that. "This robot grabs stuff off the floor!" "Ok but what if its not on the floor??" What???...

[@arpadfuzy6862]

@alextheonewarrior So if I have a small coffee table in the middle of the living room, and there's a cat toy or a sock under it, does that mean the robot can't pick it up anymore? It can fit under the table, but it can no longer extend its robotic arm.

[@xexaderatx9056]

And then grab

[@keithancajas4623]

this vs the x50 ultra w/ the arm.. hmm..

[@vacuumnerds]

The X50 doesn’t have an arm. I think Roborock will be first to market, but others will be close behind imho.

[@krystianstepien5835]

I swear the God I thought it was fake. I cannot wait first unpaid tests.

[@vacuumnerds]

I’ll get one when it’s available and it will not be a sponsored video

[@vicd8177]

Now what I really want to know is .... what about the poo ? doesn't it pick it up ? avoid it ? or does like my old Roomba and drag it all over the floor ?

[@vacuumnerds]

It avoids it

[@malin7919]

It looks cool but no real applications.

[@Quizzical106]

Hillarious! How lazy can people get?

[@mstiic]

Dreame has also promoted a kind of robot vacuum cleaner with an arm on the internet. Can you also visit Dreame's stand? 😎

[@vacuumnerds]

Heading to check out Dreame today!

[@vacuumnerds]

Here it is kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3PEhoqeqMyZm7M

[@mstiic]

Yes I saw it, thanks again👍🏻

[@zyang056]

What's my purpose.

[@EverydayKindaGuy]

So that rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr page WAS real then. I'll never have to pick up pet toys again. Poop is another question.

[@vacuumnerds]

it’s 100% real and really cool

[@king124kine]

That arm is SLOW

[@vacuumnerds]

Absolutely. But does it matter if you're doing something else?

[@sdcoinshooter]

Yeah… No. To me, Roborock jumped the shark. It is like the designing engineers were high one night and thought up the most outlandish feature they could imagine.

[@Murphys_Law9]

Looks like gimmick to me

[@vacuumnerds]

I think it will be interesting to see if this robot arm era turns out to be just a trend, or something that becomes more common on high end robots.

[@johnnyfeltz]

This feels so unnecessary, like its actively encouraging laziness. Having a robot vacuum already saves you a bunch of time cleaning your floors, so surely you can spare a little time to pick up your own damn socks and cables. I have owned multiple robot vacuums for around 8 years now, I love them, they save me so much work and keep my house pristine. One of the things I appreciate about them is that they encourage me to be tidy and put things away rather than leaving them laying around on the floor, which leads to a tidy house and a tidy mind.

[@vacuumnerds]

The idea behind a robot vacuum is to reduce work. This just takes it another step further imho. If you don't want to be lazy a corded vac will clean better than any roobt right now.

[@Pabla98]

a feature no one asked for

[@temptemporary7423]

Your mom and girl will use it in a way that you didn’t imagine😂

[@flenner]

This robot sucks. I mean, socks!

[@annoyedok321]

It literally takes 1 minute to vacuum with a more powerful and cheaper unit.

[@lucasmarsula7924]

BS take It literally takes 1 minute to clean the dishes with a powerful and cheaper unit (sink). I bet you use a (expensive) dishwasher despite that? I never need to clean my floors and I bet its way cleaner than at your place because my floors could get vacuumed and mopped 2-3 times a day if I wished

[@annoyedok321]

@lucasmarsula7924 Are you eating off your floors?

[@lucasmarsula7924]

@@annoyedok321 Don't you value your time?

[@annoyedok321]

@lucasmarsula7924 Yes, but the conversion of money to time is horrible on this as well as maintenance time.

[@vacuumnerds]

My house takes me WAY longer to vacuum than 1 minute. Or 10 minutes. It's more like 40 minutes if I use a stick vac and a bit longer with a corded vac.

[@-Gunnarsson-]

This just piss me off. Im waiting months for a better robot with upgraded vacuum/mopping. Then they reveal this joke..

[@vacuumnerds]

Every major manufacturer announced a robot with more suction and better sweeping and mopping. This is just one of many new robots including several others from Roborock.
