Xiaomi Vacuum 6 Max - dual broom cleaning robot priced at 25 million VND

Xiaomi Vacuum 6 Max - dual broom cleaning robot priced at 25 million VND

Making a splash in Vietnam with robot vacuum cleaner models priced at 4-8 million VND many years ago, but as the market gradually favors mid-range and near-high-end products with full features, Xiaomi is somewhat at a loss to compatriots such as Ecovacs, Roborock or Dreame. The new trend causes Xiaomi to change its strategy, focusing more on the price segment from 10 million to more than 20 million VND.

Compared to Robot Vacuum X10+ priced at over 20 million launched in 2023 but with less outstanding parameters, Vacuum 6 Max has more "Xiaomi quality". The machine is full of high-end technology, even better than many competitors in the same price range, a factor that has contributed to the company's previous success in many types of products such as home appliances, phones, and computers. The design is also more invested with a high-end metallic gray surface instead of the minimalist white form applied uniformly like previous generations.

Vacuum 6 Max is equipped with a motor with a suction force of 35,000 Pa, the highest in its price range before Ecovacs recently launched the T80 Max. The models with the highest suction power on the market are mostly in the segment over 30 million VND such as Mova V70 Ultra Complete (40,000 Pa), Dreame X60 Ultra Extreme (42,000 Pa).

The fierce competition in the robot vacuum cleaner market has created a race for suction power parameters in recent years. However, the difference in actual use is not too much because users rarely need the highest power level.

At medium to good suction settings, the machine can suck up most types of large trash such as paper and fruit seeds falling in the house. Combined with an automatically set daily cleaning schedule, Vacuum 6 Max can achieve good cleaning efficiency, ensuring low noise even when not turned on at the highest power level.

Xiaomi invested heavily in the navigation system on the Vacuum 6 Max with three cameras that use AI to analyze and avoid obstacles. Experience shows that the robot avoids obstacles well, identifies and avoids mistakenly climbing onto the fan base, and ignores very small electrical wires or headphone wires. According to Xiaomi's introduction, the robot can identify more than 200 indoor obstacles and more than 80 common furniture items, including headphone wires as small as 3 mm in diameter.

The camera is also used as a security camera for remote live monitoring via the Xiaomi Home application, supports two-way conversation, and combines live robot control at the same time.

In addition to the camera, Xiaomi uses a "poking" Lidar sensor above, competing with Ecovacs' solution of bringing this system to the side. When encountering a low chassis or shelf, the robot automatically lowers the radar cluster to operate at a reduced height of 9.3 cm. In actual experience, this process takes place quite quickly, smoothly and without any stuckness or misjudgment by the robot.

Vacuum 6 Max is equipped with an almost complete cleaning system with a roller and rotating cleaning system as well as dual dust brushes on both sides to reduce dead angles and the main vacuum brush has anti-tangle technology. The model only lacks dual main brushes like the Roborock DuoRoller or Dreame DuoBrush lines, equipment that limits the area for the roller cleaning system or will make the robot body significantly larger.

As cleaning and suction technology has developed rapidly in terms of parameters in recent years, companies have focused a lot on solving the problem of dead corners when cleaning. This is why the new robot has an additional mop and secondary brush in addition to small upgrades in the main system.

In addition to the main brush on the side designed to prevent tangles and jams, the Vacuum 6 Max also has an angle brush with a mechanism to extend when cleaning in the corner of the wall or around the edge of the furniture, ensuring dust is not left behind.

The cleanest roller cleaning technology available today is also integrated into the Vacuum 6 Max with pressure on the floor to clean sticky stains. With 16 water supply holes spread evenly and the steps of mopping, wiping, and rinsing performed simultaneously, the robot can increase real-time cleaning efficiency, limiting leaving water streaks on the floor.

The system can also extend itself to clean close to the edge of the wall. Compared to Ecovacs lines, this model also has an additional cleaning brush with a regular rotating mechanism to work with corners and around table and chair legs.

Besides the two moving wheels, the robot has additional wheels with an asymmetrical rotating leg mechanism, helping the robot overcome obstacles up to 6 cm high. The feature helps Vacuum 6 Max work seamlessly between rooms with door steps such as the living room, kitchen, balcony or bathroom. However, in actual testing, sometimes the robot ignores ledges with a height of over 4 cm at default settings, users need to set it deep in the software to overcome ledges up to 6 cm high.

Vacuum 6 Max uses a charging station with an automatic dust collection bag introduced by the company that can be used for 75 days before needing to be replaced. In addition, the product also has a clean and dirty water tank system but the capacity is not announced. With a house of about 80 m2, users need to change the water about 2-3 times per week depending on the wetness setting of the rag if cleaning daily. However, Xiaomi's high-end robots do not have the option to connect to an automatic water supply and discharge station directly.

All features, setting schedules, and viewing remote cameras of the Vacuum 6 Max can be done via the Xiaomi Home application (international region). Users can combine automatic commands such as leaving home, the robot runs on its own, or combined with the company's security cameras. There is no Yiko direct virtual assistant like Ecovacs, but the Vacuum 6 Max can still recognize voice commands when combined with third-party smart home platforms such as Google Home (available in Vietnamese on the phone) and Alexa.

The charging station is capable of washing rollers with hot water up to 85 degrees Celsius and drying with hot air up to 55 degrees Celsius. In a hot and humid environment like in Vietnam, users need to increase the drying time higher than the default setting to ensure the rollers and side brushes are completely dry and do not smell bad during use.

Vacuum 6 Max has a listed price of 28.9 million VND, actual purchase price at stores of 25-26 million VND, competing with Ecovacs
