Damn that bag must be super small to only last a week. My s7 ultra dock bag lasts around 6 months. Before I started living with a cat I was still using the original bag that had been going on a year and still wasn’t full, vacuuming daily.
Edit: For context, my roborock dock’s bag is 3 liters, so think the volume of 1 and a half 2 liter soda bottles, and the apartment it lasted a year in was ~500 sq ft. The matic’s bag needs to fit inside the robot and looks to be close to the size of the palm of your hand. You can see it at 0:37 in the video on their site.
Doesn’t the bag lasting longer suggest it picks up less dirt? My vacuum cleaner needs emptying every one or two times around the house, if it didn’t I would be concerned it wasn’t actually cleaning the floor.
Well my floors are also spotless, so I can confirm that it picks up everything that’s there to pick up, don’t forget that the roborock mops also, so there’s really no chance for any leftover dust or dirt (all dirt picked up by the mop gets washed by the dock and flushed down the laundry room drain automatically so there’s a portion of dirt that doesn’t even contribute to filling the dock’s bag). And now with a cat it picks up all the cat hair and when it empties I can hear a clump of it being emptied into the dock. I think it has more to do with the S7 ultra dock bag being 3 liters, and with how powerful the dock’s emptying vacuum is because it seems to compact the fuzz it’s collected quite a bit. This one’s bag looks tiny on comparison, but they don’t give the dimensions. The roborocks is 6"x6"x5" approximately (dimensions vary a bit from listing to listing but most listings are right around 3L based on the given dimensions).
I mean just take a look at the video on the matic website, it looks like the bag is smaller than a person’s hand. The roborock is 1.5 times the size of a 2 liter soda bottle. That’s a huge difference.
Yeah the ultra dock is amazing, I got the mop dryer and water change kit addons, so it auto refills the clean water tank from my washing machine water line, and auto empties the dirty mop water out a tube I stuck down the washing machine drain. I used to have to refill/empty those water bins every week but now the most frequent maintenance is rinsing out the water filter every 2-3 weeks. Everything else seems to be only required monthly.

It depends on the size of your house and the amount of dirt and dust.

I have the S7+ and is awesome. The ultra must be crazy.
