@idoblu Just wondering if the bot is still working properly now? Heard the laser sensor can spoil easily and in that case, it might burn a big hole in pocket....  unsure.gif

Just got one! Not bad! Got the global version! Agreed that it took a while to clean a small area. It's like it went to and forth the same area at least three times!

I just bought this robot.
So i close the door one of my room and asked it to do zone cleanup in my room.
The robot cant go through due to obstacle. It go back to the dock.

Then i open the door. But it wont go there because the map still not updated (it still see the door is closed)

I manual control it. Do zone cleanup near the door. The door is open. But it seems like the map is not being updated.

So how to update the map so the robot knows the door is open? 😅

If you want to do cleaning for a room that was previously closed off, just do a zone cleaning for that room but draw the box so that it’s before the door that was closed. You just need the box to be a little bit outside of the room

Aahhh like that. I will try again later.
I did zone cleaning out side of my rooms and it seems the door is updated (open).

Btw my first time using the robot it went to the kitchen but stop halfway due to wifi problem and the map got corrupted. 🥺

Now i put barrier so it wont go there. Scared to try again and corrupted the map. But yeah wifi signal is not strong at kitchen.

Really satisfied with the robot. I have cat. His furs is all over the place. With this i dont hv to vacuum every 3/4 days.

Chinese version can work with google Home and Alexa
No IFTTT support though. I don’t see why you would need this anyway

What devices you have in your MiHome app?
If you got other devices using Singapore server then get the global version
Chinese version only in China server

I just learnt this robot wont work on carpet that have black stripes. Because it will trick the cliff sensor and make it think it will fall down. Demn. Apps cant disable the sensor so i have to cover the sensors. 🥺

Your review is super solid. Thanks! Appreciate your time and effort taken for your writeup and even in answering questions. You’re an unsung hero, really. I’m in search of a robotic vacuum cleaner and you have seriously convinced me to buy one.
