It is strict for the review, and the comments of the reviewers are very detailed, which is helpful to the improvement of the article. It is the top journal in the field of robotics.

Three months of initial review, two months of revision, two months of one revision and response—a total of seven months later it was finally accepted. It is my first article. I hope I'll persist in my efforts to publish better next time.

It’s definitely a high-level journal. The reviewers’ opinions are very pertinent and responsible, which has a profound impact on my academic career.

A very good journal; a top journal in the field of robotics. The first review took 3 months; the reviewers are well known experts in the field and gave very good suggestions. Accepted 40 days after the revision. From submission to acceptance for a total of 5 months, which is pretty fast. I hope the journal is getting better and better. Now it has one cover per year, but if it changes to one cover per issue, it should have greater impact.

Submitted on April 6th, 2025.
Received feedback on May 28th, 2025. Each of the two reviewers provided 8 comments, mainly focusing on the organization of the paper and some details, as well as suggesting additional experiments. However, for some unknown reason, the editor rejected it directly.

Just received a paper, may I ask if this journal is currently charging Page Charges?

The application was submitted at the end of last December and we haven't received the result yet. I followed up last month and was informed that they have received feedback and are expecting to have the result by the end of this month. However, it seems that it's just a matter of waiting

Hello, may I ask if this journal will directly reject submissions due to the backlog of manuscripts during the Chinese New Year? I am planning to submit at this time, but I am worried that the excessive backlog of manuscripts will result in direct rejection

Hello, will this journal directly reject submissions due to the backlog of manuscripts over Chinese New Year? I am planning to submit, but I am worried about being rejected outright because of this

Submitted three papers to Soro, two as first author and one with a co-author, all accepted after revisions. Two papers went through one round of review (Major), while one went through two rounds (Major-Minor). The average time for receiving review comments is around 3 months, with the fastest being one and a half months. The average decision time after revisions is within two months, which I personally feel is quite standard and considered a moderate speed among robotics journals. However, I have heard cases of delays around me, which may be due to different editorial styles in specific subfields. I hope the journal will continue to improve in the future, making the review process more rational

Everything is fine except for the slow, slow speed~ Submitted in May 2022, took 7 months for the first review; 6 months for major revisions; and now it's been almost 3 months since the minor revisions

Hello, may I ask if you have added a new reviewer for the second review?

When submitting the article, should the images be embedded within the text or placed separately at the end of the article?

(0) Thank | aaadefighting

The status will not change until receiving the email, and it seems that the editor is also very slow in making the final decision.

(0) Thank | Jay0304

Can I ask if the STATUS changes during the journal peer review process? What does it mean if it remains "under review" all the time?

Now in the third review, the third review has been going on for almost two months. The first review lasted for over three months, and the second review lasted nearly three months.

Excuse me, does it mean that there has been no response after seven months of initial trial?

(0) Thank | SGpp

The review process is extremely slow. It has been over 7 months since the submission, and it has not been accepted yet.
