Features Comparison Chart

The Roborock S7 and S7 MaxV have the same cleaning mechanics like a fully-rubber brushroll, filtration system, battery, navigation and mopping technology.

The S7 MaxV has a built-in camera that recognizes small objects Lidar can't see which makes navigation more advanced. It has stronger suction but a smaller dustbin which is not a downside since the self-cleaning base refills the water tank when needed automatically.

Both are ideal for pet owners

Let's talk about the base.

The Roborock S7 self-cleaning base is basic, it sucks the debris out of the dustbin after each cleaning. The MaxV self-cleaning base is more advanced. It has two large containers for clean and wasted water and a disposable bag for collecting dust. The MaxV base has the following functions:

Water tank auto-refill. The base refills the water tank as the robot mops.
Washing the mopping pad. After every mopping cycle, the robot returns to the base that washes the pad to make it ready for the next cleaning.
Drying out the pad. The Roborock S7 MaxV dries the mopping pad with hot air after washing it.
Empties the dustbin.
Self-cleaning. The design of the base allows to clean the base after washing the pads or empty the dustbin.

With the following extra features the price of the Roborock S7 MaxV is high since there is only one model on the market similar to it.

The Roborock S7 is a great machine if you don't need those extra features. Very convenient to use in homes with a mixed surface.

The Roborock S7 MaxV on the other hand, is the most advanced machine on the market that has it all and almost fully automated. For those who can spend more and not to bother with maintenance.
