These smart cleaning robots pack a ton of smart functions that automate cleaning tasks, ultimately make home cleaning much more efficient. That said, by getting yourself a smart robot vacuum you can take that weekly home cleaning work off your shoulders and consequently have more time for yourself, whether that’s for focusing on extra work or for relaxing a bit. So, if you’re on the market for a smart robot vacuum cleaner for your home, then consider going with the the ILIFE V80 Max.
The ILIFE V80 Max is a smart robot vacuum cleaner that features a Smart Gyroscope Navigation System, a strong Suction Power at 2000Pa, up to 80 minutes of battery life with a Self-Charging functionality, In-App Controls for configuring cleaning schedules and also Voice Assistant support to Alexa.
All and all, this smart robot vacuum cleaner is capable of taking care of all of your standard home cleaning duties on a regular basis.
So, without any further ado, let’s have a more detailed look at the ILIFE V80 Max and check out everything that this smart robot vacuum cleaner has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the ILIFE V80 Max’s dimensions, this smart robot vacuum cleaner comes at a reasonably compact size, measuring just 12.99 inches long by 12.6 inches wide by just 3.15 inches tall. The device is also fairly lightweight, weighing just a measly 5.8 lbs.
Additionally, the V80 Max also features a slim, modern and ultra-minimalist design, as it comes with a simple dark-blue’ish body that also portrays a glossy finish for a modern, yet still discrete look.
For its construction, this smart robot vacuum cleaner also features a very durable build, as its outer shell is made of high-quality plastic materials.
Now, moving on to the ILIFE V80 Max’s different components. For its automated movement, this smart robot vacuum comes equipped with a Universal Wheel (at the front) that’s combined with a set of ultra-durable side wheels.
The combinations of these three wheels ultimately make the V80 Max perfectly capable of moving on top of hardwood and hard floors, floors with tiles, or even carpet, and also make it capable of easily crossing over any obstacles in its path that measure up to 0.59 inches (15 mm) tall that feature an inclination / slope angle of up to 15-degrees. This includes doorsills, rails, and carpets alike.
Moreover, integrated at the center of the robot’s bottom-side, we also have an enhanced Floating Tangle-Free Suction Inlet that’s basically designed to keep the robot vacuum cleaner in constant contact with floors, thus allowing it to effectively clean up dust, crumbs, debris and pet hair without ever having its Suction Inlet tangled-up.
The robot’s Floating Suction Inlet is also combined with a Self-Adjustable Nozzle that further helps the device to stay in perfect contact with the surface that’s its cleaning. That said, unlike many other smart robot vacuums on the market that features a less-versatile design for cleaning, you can be assured that with the V80 Max you’ll never have to worry about cleaning hair from the robot’s Suction Inlet.
In addition, at both sides of the robot, we also have two (x2) Side Brushes (one on each side) that rotate horizontally to effectively sweep any type of debris towards the center of the vacuum.
These Side Brushes help to expand the robot’s maximum cleaning area, thus allowing it to more easily reach corners and edges in order to clean those more effectively.
And still for the robot’s automated movement, it’s also worth noting that the ILIFE V80 Max also boasts a full set of Anti-Collision and Anti-Dropping Smart Sensors that respectively allow the robot to reduce bumping against obstacles while cleaning as well as intelligently avoid any accidental falls.
For powering both the robot’s wheel-movement and its powerful suction for automated cleaning, the V80 Max utilizes a built-in Premium Nidec Brushless Motor that works at a Rated Power of 22W (100-240VAC at 50/60Hz).
The V80 Max’s Nidec Brushless Motor can spin at a maximum power of 20,000 rpm, and that’s ultimately what makes this smart robot vacuum cleaner capable of offering its users a strong Suction Power of up at 2000Pa (varies between 700Pa all the way up to 2000 Pa).
When set to work at its lowest suction setting, the robot’s internal Brushless Motor works at a whisper-quiet noise level, so you can be assured that this smart vacuum robot can be set to clean without having it disturb any of your family members or pets.
That said, note that this smart robot vacuum can be set to work in one of 4 different Cleaning Modes, for which each of those have different levels of Suction Power.
Those Cleaning Modes are: Path Mode / Auto Mode (which works at 700Pa and is used by the robot to clean any standard large and empty spaces), Regular Mode (to clean at exactly 1000 Pa), Max Mode (which provides an enhanced suction up to 1400Pa to allow the robot to more thoroughly clean harder to clean surfaces like carpets or floor gaps), and Spot Mode (which works at 2000Pa to make the robot capable of cleaning any smaller areas with a more intense suction power). There’s also a special Edge Mode that works at a mid-range suction powered (this is specifically used to have the robot clean room corners and edges).
All of robot’s Cleaning Mode(s) can be easily activated via its proprietary Smartphone App, which we’ll discuss in more detail at the end of the article.
Furthermore, at the back-side of the robot, we also have a 750ml Large-Capacity Dustbin that greatly helps to reduce the frequency of emptying the robot’s bin.
This 750ml Dustbin also works together with a High-Performance Filtering System that’s composed by a High-End Cotton Filter and a Nylon Mesh, which ultimately allow for the robot to capture a large amount of dust, crumbs, debris and hairs with ease.
Last but not least, the ILIFE V80 Max also utilizes an internal Smart Gyroscope Navigation System for its movement throughout all of its automated cleaning, which basically gives an Intelligent Pathing capability that ensures a more thorough and more efficient cleaning in less time when compared to other lower-end smart vacuum robot models.
CONNECTIVITY
For establishing a connection with its Smartphone App, the ILIFE V80 Max utilizes Wi-Fi Connectivity (note that the smart robot’s Wi-Fi Connectivity only supports 2.4GHz networks, not 5GHz, so keep that in mind).
BATTERY & BATTERY LIFE
Now, for its automated cleaning functions, this smart robot vacuum cleaner comes equipped with an Internal Battery that can offer you up to 80 minutes of battery life.
As said before, this smart robot vacuum robot also packs a Smart Self-Charging function that makes it capable of automatically detecting when its battery is running low on power, in which case the ILIFE V80 Max will simply return to its dedicated Charging Base to automatically have its battery recharged.
THE SMARTPHONE COMPANION APP – The ILIFEHOME App
Finally, and as mentioned earlier, the V80 Max also offers its users support to In-App Controls that can be used via its Smartphone App, called the ILIFEHOME App, which can be downloaded for free for both iOS and Android devices.
Via the App, users can adjust the robot’s Suction Power / Suction Level for a higher cleaning efficiency when their looking to have the robot clean-up harder messes like crumbs, debris or pet hair.
Additionally, the ILIFEHOME App also allows users to configure Customizable Schedules for the robot, which can basically be set up as weekly cleaning schedules to have the robot automatically clean different parts of your home based on your needs.
OTHER NOTABLE FEATURES

As said before, the ILIFE V80 Max also features Voice Assistant Support to Amazon Alexa devices, which means that you can conveniently control the robot’s different functions via Alexa’s simple and easy-to-use Voice Commands.
