Why you should buy the Roborock E5 robot vacuum

Since the first Amazon Prime Day in 2015, the mega sales events have always included tempting Prime Day robot vacuum deals. Roborock has been one of the leading brands in smart home robotic floor cleaners and is no stranger to the lists of the best robot vacuums as well as some of the top deals during Prime Day. Power is definitely a major theme with the E5.  Rated for both carpeting and hard floor surfaces, the Wi-Fi-connected Roborock E5 is ready for hard work with a 2500PA suction vacuum force — way above the required minimum 500 to 600PA force for entry-level robot vacuums. That extra power pulls dirt and debris from deep in your carpets and lifts the same from hard floor surfaces when mopping. The combo cleaner’s battery is rated to run up to 200 minutes and vacuum up to 2,152 square feet on a single charge. If you simultaneous vacuum and mop floors, the Roborock multifunction robot can clean up to 1,600 square feet before it takes itself back to the docking station to automatically recharge.

The Roborock E5 isn’t all brawn, however. Roborock’s OpticEye technology uses two gyroscopes for advanced mapping so it can track where it has already cleaned. You can control the Roborock E5 with the included remote control, with the Roborock mobile app, or with voice control via either Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. With all of its power and smarts, it’s only fitting that the Roborock E5 also has a capacious dustbin so it doesn’t have to quit part-way through cleaning jobs.

So here’s your chance to save $160 on this powerful and smart combination robot vacuum and mop. Instead of the usual $360 list price, you can pick up the Roborock E5 Robot Vacuum and Mop for just $200 today.

Apple’s next home robot could turn its screen to follow you, but it might cost you $1,000 to do so
A smart display that pans, watches, and decides.
Apple HomeView feature

Remember the hopping Pixar lamp that famously squashes the letter “I” in the studio logo at the beginning of almost every Pixar movie? Apple may be building something similar, except this Pixar-inspired device won't actually hop or roll around your room. 

Instead, its motorized robotic arm could swivel the screen around (basically moving it left to right, or vice versa, on an axis). According to a new report from The Information, the Cupertino giant is working on a larger, robotic version of its recently-announced HomeView smart display, and it might arrive as soon as next year.

Apple might be turning its HomeView into a security camera, and it makes perfect sense
HomeView's built-in camera might soon have a few more uses beyond FaceTime calls.
Apple HomeView feature

Apple’s recently unveiled HomeView smart display could also function as a home security camera, according to a new finding in its software. The device, which already has a built-in camera for FaceTime calls and facial recognition, could supposedly use the same hardware for motion detection, live streaming, and video recording through HomeKit Secure Video.

The feature was spotted by a Reddit user in the settings files of HomeView Software 27.2 (via TheVerge). Apple hasn’t officially announced anything about it yet, but the references suggest there are going to be a few more uses for the built-in camera.
