It does not work in the dark although it has a light in the front. The light is used strictly for obstacle avoidance only.
Short version: If you have some low carpets and your home is 1100+ sq ft big, you'll appreciate the purchase.
Pros:
1) It's quiet sometimes. Sometimes the J7 isn't vacuuming and just moving to a destination, and during these moments it's a lot quieter than the I3.
2) It vacuums my home in half the time. The i3 needed an extra 20min to vacuum, but this extra 20min meant it needed to charge before vacuuming again. The charging would double the vacuum time as a result.
3) Self-emptying is a godsend. While vacuuming, it always needed to be emptied, which meant I had to go to it every time so that it could finish.
4) The avoidance system works perfectly for my home. There were some things that would always result in the Roomba getting stuck on, and this newer one handles it perfectly.

It is noticeably quieter than the i7, which makes it easier to run while I'm working from home.
It seems to have a little less suctions on the rugs than the i7.
Cord and dog toy avoidance is a MAJOR plus versus the i7.
The Clean Base upgrade will be noticeable once we have to go back into the office. I had to empty the plain i7 a couple of times in order for it to clean the entire house.
Overall, I'm happy with the decision to upgrade from the i7 to the j7+
I do not mind the vacuum noise since it's set up for 9 am when the house is empty. Constantly emptying the canister is not that painful but I would always forget to do it with my old rumbas resulting in poor cleaning.
I have one and bought two more today for the rest of the house.
My J7+ is OK but the dock is loud, it still uses its bump sensor a lot, and the obstacle avoidance supposedly should improve with updates but it is far from perfect now. It's unable to get some pet hair out of our area rug. The future seems to be lidar with obstacle avoidance so you have to manage your expectations since this only has obstacle avoidance.
