Chuwi iLife V7 Cleaning Robot

The cleaning robots they are every day a more common product in many Spanish homes. Before they were a semi-luxury product, since the price of an iRobot or a Roomba oscillated between € 400 and € 800, but today it is possible to get a robot made in China for about € 150 and with more than interesting features.

And precisely in that price scale is where the Chuwi iLife V7, the new model from the manufacturer Chuwi that is one of the most successful sellers among the cheap ranges of this type of device. If the iLife V5 was already a model that worked quite well, with this new one the benefits are very close to their mid and high-end siblings. But let's see more details

Let's start cleaning

Through the remote control or smartphone we can start the robot and select the cleaning mode. There are 4 options available:

• automatic cleaning: is the normal operating mode and the one you will use in most cases.
• Border Cleaning: is a special cleaning mode where you focus on the edges. It is useful when we have dirt accumulated in these points.
• Concentration Cleaning: the robot performs a concentrated cleaning at a certain point. It is an essential cleaning mode for when we have an especially dirty area and we need the robot to apply for longer than normal.
• Reservation Cleaning: allows you to program the Chuwi ILIFE V7 to wake up and stop at a specific time and day. Thus allows

If you want to have more details about how to handle the robot here we leave you the user manual in english. As is usually normal in this type of Chinese products, there is no manual in Spanish.

The first thing that strikes us about the iLife V7 is the little noise it makes, it is one of the quietest robots of all that we have tried and that is appreciated if we are at home at the same time that the robot is working.

With a height of just 8 centimeters, the V7 is able to pass under almost any object No problem. It weighs 3 kilograms, which is a little higher than the average for this type of device, but the truth is that it moves quite agile. Has a 2.600 mAh rechargeable battery that allows an autonomy of 140 minutes. And when the robot detects that the battery is running low automatically goes to the base to recharge. The complete recharge in the base lasts about 300 minutes but if we want we can also charge the robot directly from a power input with which we can speed up the process somewhat.

Control the robot with your smartphone

The great novelty of the V7 with respect to the older Chuwi models is that can be controlled with your smartphone. To download the app, you just have to scan the QR code that appears on the box itself and that's it. For everything to work your smartphone must have Bluetooth 4.0 and Android 4.3 / iOS 6.0 or later operating system.

It is certainly a special attraction for smartphone lovers but does not offer any extra functionality with respect to what we can do with the traditional command.

Chuwi iLife V7 box contents

The Chuwi iLife V7 box comes quite complete at the accessory level. In addition to the robot itself, the remote control, the charging base and the power charger, it also brings several spare parts such as the filters, the cleaning brush and the ball, which is very appreciated when buying a product from China. And then getting spare parts can be complicated in some cases. The only thing we miss is a European power adapter, which forces us to have to buy one separately.
