iRobot Roomba Plus 505 vs Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Pro

The Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Pro tops the iRobot Roomba Plus 505 in this robot vacuum matchup on battery life, suction power, warranty length and owner ratings, running up to 290 minutes per charge against 120 and rated at 25000Pa against 7000Pa, backed by a 2-year warranty. Both currently count as supporting Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings and Matter, but there is a real-world nuance worth knowing: the Roomba Plus 505's support already works today, while Roborock lists the Qrevo Curv 2 Pro's as arriving through an upcoming OTA update, so an Apple Home household buying now should confirm that update has shipped before relying on it. Outside that timing gap the two are evenly matched on navigation and mopping automation, both use Laser (LiDAR) mapping with obstacle detection, cliff detection, multi-room mapping and no-go zones, and both wash, dry and empty themselves at the dock. The iRobot Roomba Plus 505 keeps a real price advantage, which is the main reason to consider it over the higher-spec Roborock. Buyers chasing the strongest raw cleaning numbers should get the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Pro, while those who want to spend less, or need Apple Home working on day one rather than after an update, may prefer the iRobot Roomba Plus 505.
