Today the company produces a lot of different electronics: from tablets to vacuum cleaners and car chargers.

The smart robot vacuum cleaner CHUWI ILIFE V7 for $ 151.39 is a great option for daily cleaning. It is bigger and heavier than its predecessors, it has a higher “permeability” due to larger wheels. Vacuum cleaner can do wet cleaning. The mechanism is simple: you soak a special soft cloth, drive the vacuum cleaner under the bed or on the cabinet (the height sensor will prevent it from falling) - and it rubs dust. As soon as the cloth is dirty, it is easy to remove, wash and re-attach to the base.
