A model from the proven quality and durability of the products of the South Korean manufacturer LG. The robot vacuum cleaner has a small weight and size, but at the same time maintains a high power output. Removes all types of surfaces - hard and carpet. The navigation system is intelligent and consists of cameras and sensors. The noise level during operation is comfortable for the human ear. All indicators bring the vacuum cleaner closer to the ideal model for choice. In more detail, all of its pros and cons will be considered by this review.
Specifications
- Case color is black and silver.
- Dimensions - 34x34x8.9 cm.
- Weight 3.5 kg.

- Power - 18 W.
- Cyclonic filter without using a 0.6 l bag.
- Complete with HEPA fine filter.
- The noise when working in standard mode is 60 dB, in turbo - 62 dB.
- Remote control.
- Screen on the body.
- Sound alerts.
Design
Compared with previous generations of LG robots, the design of this is slightly modified. Square body with rounded edges. Together with the small size of the case and the elongated design of the side brushes - their length is 7 cm - the vacuum cleaner penetrates well even in the most difficult corners and under low furniture, removes all garbage along the baseboard and at the corners. Test results show 89% better corner cleaning and 94% higher overall surface cleaning performance.
On the upper part of the case there is a gray bezel, in the middle of which there is a black part with control buttons and a small LCD screen. On the side there is a mechanical bumper and a power off button. Traditionally, there are two driving wheels and a roller for maneuvering at the bottom. Main and side brushes, battery compartment.
Functional
Only dry cleaning of the room is included in the functional, but within its framework, the vacuum cleaner performs the function assigned to it. It works in several modes:
- My place is a thorough cleaning of one selected area of the room. The vacuum cleaner moves in a zigzag, passing through the specified area several times.
- Zigzag cleaning - suitable for quick daily cleaning, goes through the entire available area of the house and installs itself on the charging base.
- Manual cleaning - all movements of the vacuum cleaner are controlled from the buttons on the remote control.
There are additional functions:
- Turbo mode is optimal for cleaning areas with a high level of dirt, while the suction power is increased, which affects the speed of battery discharge and the noise level.
- Smart Turbo - Thorough cleaning of carpets.
- Repeat - repeats all completed movements until the battery is completely discharged.
- Training - remembers the driving route and all obstacles in the way and uses the saved data for the next cleaning.
The main difference from competitors is the cartographic memory, due to which the robot builds a map of the house.The upper Single Eye camera is installed, it helps the processor collect information about the surrounding space, analyze it and choose the most suitable route for movement. The program includes the function of determining one's own location, due to which the likelihood of passing twice through the same place is reduced.
A large number of sensors are located throughout the body, they form a "digital bumper", with its help the vacuum cleaner determines the distance to the object with an accuracy of 1 cm, collisions occur only in the most extreme cases. There is an ultrasonic sensor for detecting transparent objects, so collisions with glass and other surfaces are also excluded. Another sensor detects cliffs, reacts to changes in the height of the surface, which excludes falls from stairs and thresholds. At the same time, the information received from all sensors is analyzed and updated, which significantly increases the overall quality of cleaning.
Another useful addition is intelligent self-diagnosis. In the process, the robot moves in a circle in a radius of half a meter from the dock. At the end of the diagnosis, the user is notified about this by an audible message, then the vacuum cleaner is installed on the base. If malfunctions were found, the robot reports this using the same sound messages.
Equipment

Advantages and disadvantages
Based on user feedback and review, the following advantages can be identified:
- Stylish and modern look.
- Small size.
- Silent work.
- Increased cleaning efficiency.
- The ability to use a dry microfiber cloth in cleaning for additional collection of fine dust.
- One of the best indicators for cleaning corners and skirting boards.
- Long side brushes.
- The presence of the upper Single Eye camera.
- Digital bumper.
- Easy-to-clean waste container.
- Automatic diagnostics.
Disadvantages are minor:
- The room needs to be prepared for cleaning, wires and small objects removed, but such measures must be taken when using any robot.
- There is no timer.
- The manufacturer overestimated the time available for operation; in reality, the battery lasts for a maximum of an hour.
- Slightly overpriced - about , but meets the quality and available functionality.
