Costs $150 less The [Roborock Q](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Roborock+Q&tag=wehavethat-20)5 Pro delivers about 90% of the [Roomba j](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Roomba+j&tag=wehavethat-20)7+'s cleaning performance at a significantly lower price.

Better navigation It uses more advanced mapping and obstacle avoidance, so it cleans more efficiently without getting stuck.

Longer battery life The Q5 Pro runs longer on a single charge, making it better for larger apartments or homes.

Loses the poop-detection camera You give up the j7+’s ability to avoid pet waste, but for most pet owners this is a minor trade-off.

Smarter budget pick for apartments If you don’t need the camera, the Q5 Pro offers better value with superior navigation and battery life for less money.
