Samsung has been making robot vacuum cleaners for a while now, and while they haven't quite gotten to the level of popularity as iRobot's Roomba line has, it seems that enough people buy them for Samsung to keep making them.
With that in mind we have the latest model of Powerbot vacuum cleaners, the Powerbot VR7000,
which Samsung announced this week ahead of CES 2017. The new vacuum is
less than 4 inches tall — Samsung claims it's 28 percent thinner than
the previous version — and offers up to 20 watts of suction power (an
actual vacuum cleaner benchmark, apparently) on the most powerful model.
But perhaps the biggest addition to the Powerbot VR7000
is Amazon Echo support. This will allow you to operate your vacuum
cleaner with voice controls, giving Samsung's vacuum a feature that the
Roomba line doesn't have. There's also some new software features that
allows the Powerbot VR7000 to more intelligently map out rooms and
optimize its cleaning depending on floor type. But really, if you're
getting a Powerbot VR7000, it's probably so you can verbally command
your robotic vacuum minion to clean your floors.
Samsung isn't giving any pricing or release information
on the Powerbot VR7000, but it does intend to showcase it at CES.
