Great for Flying TELLO Drone greater distances
For over a year I have been using this Xiaomi range extender to fly my TELLO DRONE greater distances using my iPhone as the controller. Without the Mi Home range extender I can fly and transmit video feed about 75 feet. With the Mi Home range extender I can fly and transmit video about 300 feet. The Mi Home unit will only work with drones which transmit a 2.4 GHZ Wi-Fi signal. Go to You Tube to learn how to set up this range extender.
The specific tutorial on You Tube is titled “Xiaomi Mi Wifi 2 Range Extender/ Full Setup Tutorial for The Ryze DJI Tello, by “Gadget Inspector”.Show lessdocweddle
Great product!
Very satisfied with this robot vacuum cleaner. Much more intelligent than one of the earlier products I bought from another manufacturer five years or so ago that just traveled around the room like a drunken sailor until it’s battery needed charging. This one really maps out the room well, makes intelligent decisions how to split the job up, and the carpets look great, like it was mowed it in even rows. Especially like the iphone map feature where you can block areas, set up virtual walls. Great when mopping! That claims to be a beta test feature, but works pretty well.Show lessAdmfromFisher
Great lil robot
Have only used it to sweep but it does a pretty decent job and is pretty fast about it... only problem is the dust bin does not empty itself during docking/charging time!! but the cool thing is once you hook it to your phone it has a pause feature and you can remove the dust bin after it has been from room to room for awhile, empty it out and replace it. Go back on your phone and hit start or continue not sure what it said exactly lol but it continues right along until it covers anything it has access too.. so yeah pretty awesome so far but like I said I have not tried the mop features... future bad review may come. Dunno? I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt cuz I like it so far.. fingers crossed... hope this helps someone out there looking to buy one of these things... oh yeah battery life was pretty decent long as you kinda pick stuff up off the ground and the less it bumps things the better battery life.. just sayin!!

Can’t connect vacuum to WiFi
I have the Xiaomi Mi vacuum and despite best efforts could not get it to connected to WiFi until I changed my region to Chinese mainland. I live in the US. When I had it set to US, it would allow me to put in my WiFi info, but then wouldn’t connect to the device. On Chinese mainland settings, I can actually see the specific vacuum I bought, and finally got it connected, but within the app when I click on the vacuum to update settings, I get the error “please connect to local server”. Changing back to the US then loses the device. I’m at a loss. The vacuum cleans very well but I’m very frustrated with the app and getting it all connected.Show lessspaghettiocat
Excellent Security Cameras
I have 4 of these cameras in two separate locations. They have been working flawlessly. Can check all locations with no problems. Functionality, clarity and features are great! For what these cameras cost and the relative ease of installation (make sure you follow the instructions and be patient. Takes time for connections to take place. It will happen, guaranteed) Customer service is prompt! You will not be disappointed. Price is EXCELLENT just like the camera.Show lessLtjdk
Cleans better than my old Dyson!
Love this little vacuum/mop. We have 2 cats and although I vacuumed with my dyson animal immediately before starting this vacuum it pulled enough dust and fur up to fill the dustbin. Our rug hasn’t been this clean since we got it. I’ve used it 3 times this week and we’re thrilled with it. Only reason for 4stars instead of 5 is ease if use with the phone. It’s not so easy to set up for those of us tech challenged folks in fact it’s still not set up. I happened on the the remote once when I was looking for something else and haven’t found it again now that I want to use it... the nice thing is we can just place it where we want to clean and press start.Show less/@294!:7.akficr
App rating not machine rating
The app has many features that are excellent. However it is not very user friendly. It can be a little confusing to try to set up your vacuum robot to complete certain tasks. I had to scour the whole app and spend over an hour getting to know where things were within the app. If you don’t have some features set up, it won’t allow you to set up others. Then you have to back out and go find where those settings are. I do love all the features this vacuum can do and that you can go through an app, just wish it was easier to set things up and the understanding of what features are in what categories.Show lessrachel_n_west
Love this robot vacuum
This thing is absolutely amazing, love that I can control it from my phone, it’s independent, it barely ever get stuck and the zone cleaning, and mapping the house its awesome! I love love love this thing, and would definitely recommend it to everyone. It made my life so much easier, having dogs in a house it’s hard to keep the floors clean especially if you live in the country, but this thing here makes all the difference in the worldShow lessAnna Sowell
Some layout issues on iPhone XS Max
Overall, well designed app. It feels as if a lot of thought went behind it, I definitely prefer it to what iRobot has. However, there are a few layout issues that make operation hard. On iPhone XS Max, the home interface looks fine until you enter your Robovac interface. I have the e35 vacuum and the app doesn’t account for the iPhone notch. Due to that, the top area of the app looks pretty odd. But it also adds functionality issues as back and menu buttons touch areas are off. As a result, you need to tap all over the place in order to access those menus.Show lessaFive720
Once it’s set up, works great
I’m new to home automation so am learning the possibilities from scratch. Bought the 1028 camera first, then added two Yeelights. The only challenges I experienced in the setup where related to incorrect region selected. Can’t connect a lamp bought in spain to the app set up for United States for instance. Same with the sharing function: only seens to work if the person you’re sharing with has their account set for the same region. Took me awhile to figure out but got there in the end. If I had been able to find the answers to this in the FAQ I might have rated this a 5-star.Show lessnew to home automation
