The Samsung Jet Bot 90 AI+ robot vacuum could prove a greater threat to the Ring and Arlo’s range of home security cameras. Here’s what you can expect.
The best robot vacuums make cleaning your floors a breeze, as they take on the chore completely – pootling around your home sucking up fine dust, dirt and any other debris in its patch, while you put your feet up and take a well-earned rest. Many of today’s best robot vacuums have powerful suction that can rival the best vacuum cleaners on the market, along with rechargeable batteries that can outlast some of the best cordless vacuums, too. They can be controlled either by a smartphone or your voice thanks to integration with Alexa and Google Assistant, while state-of-the-art sensors ensure the machine doesn’t bump into your furniture or fall down any stairs. It’s been more than four years since Samsung launched a robot vacuum but, at CES this year, Samsung unveiled a new robot vacuum that used Intel’s AI technology to ensure it could navigate its way around your home as easily as you do. So it’s no surprise we’re keenly awaiting the release of the Samsung Jet Bot 90 AI+ to see just what innovations they’ll be surprising us with next. Samsung’s current robot vacuum, the Powerbot VR7000 range, was first unveiled at CES 2017, and is priced between $499 (around £350 / AU$645) and $899 (around £635 / AU$1,160), depending upon the model chosen – the more suction power, the softer the brush and the number of accessories the robovac ships with affects how much it costs. Unfortunately, this range of robot vacuums is only available in the US and has never been released in the UK or Australia.
