The Dreame X50 Ultra isn’t just another robot vacuum in the marketโit’s an obstacle-conquering, self-maintaining, all-in-one cleaning machine. With its industry-first ProLeap system, it climbs over obstacles up to 6cm, giving it the agility of a tiny, determined mountaineer. If your home has door ledges, raised carpets, or any obstacle that other vacuums get stuck on, this one lifts itself and keeps going.
Its VersaLift DToF navigation adds another level of intelligence, allowing it to drop down to a height of just 89mm to slide under low furniture while keeping its sensors fully functional. Paired with 20,000Pa suction power and a hot water mop cleaning system, the X50 Ultra vacuums, mops efficiently, and cleans itselfโall while looking sleek.
The X50 Ultra’s powerful self-cleaning dock, anti-tangle dual brush system, and AI-powered obstacle avoidance are designed to give you a break. It’s for those who want to lift nothing but their feet while it does all the work. But does it live up to its promise?
The sleekest vacuum with nowhere to hide

The Dreame X50 Ultra’s all-black, circular bot with a futuristic yet minimalist design is sure to impress. While many robot vacuums feature a protruding sensor on top, the X50 Ultra cleverly retracts its VersaLift sensor, allowing it to squeeze into tight spaces that taller models struggle with. This is a game-changer for low-profile furniture, where dust and lost socks have lived unbothered for years.


Its button layout is refreshingly simple, featuring two control buttons on top for quick-start and return-to-dock functions. For those who prefer a truly hands-free experience, the vacuum integrates seamlessly with voice assistants, so it’s just an “Ok, Dreame” away from the action.

The dual-brush system is one of the more thoughtful design choices. Instead of a single roller tangled with hair, the HyperStream detangling duo brush combines rubber and bristled brush, lifting dirt while actively minimising hair wrap. This makes it a lifesaver for pet owners or those with long-haired family members who don’t want to spend their evenings unwrapping vacuum roller horrors.

Lifting, scrubbing, and outsmarting dirt
The X50 Ultra easily handles real-world chaos, from pet fur explosions to accidental coffee spills. With 20,000Pa suction power, it can pull fine dust, hair, and snack crumbs from hard floors and carpets. The TripleUp Tech system smartly lifts and lowers the main and side brushes, keeping the vacuum efficient across different surfaces. It’s a versatile cleaning solution that empowers you to tackle any mess.

In a hallway where most vacuums struggle with raised thresholds, uneven flooring, and multi-level surfaces, the X50 Ultra’s ProLeap system proved invaluable. Instead of getting stuck or requiring manual intervention, it automatically adjusted its height, lifting itself to smoothly transition between tiled flooring, wooden panels, and thick rugs. Where the X30 Ultra and X40 Ultra would stop at a 2cm threshold, the X50 Ultra’s 6cm clearance allowed it to move freely between rooms, making it ideal for homes with step-down living areas, raised platforms, or door tracks that disrupt conventional robot vacuums.


The kitchen floor was nextโa space notorious for spills, grease, and mysterious stickiness. After an unfortunate coffee-and-oatmeal incident, the X50 Ultra was unleashed. The MopExtend RoboSwing technology extended its mops by 4cm, allowing it to scrub right up to the base of cabinets where other vacuums leave a frustrating strip of dirt. The result? A spotless kitchen floor with zero sticky spots left behind.

Its VersaLift DToF navigation also proved its worth when dealing with low-clearance furniture. While many vacuums get stuck under TV consoles or misjudge height and retreat, the X50 Ultra smoothly lowered itself and navigated through, ensuring no dust bunnies survived. Combined with 3D structured light scanning, it successfully avoided obstacles like charging cables and stray pet toys, showing why it stands above the rest.

A docking station that practically runs the house
The docking station is equally well-designed, standing at 457 x 340 x 590mm, compact yet fully loaded with features. It is a full-service cleaning hub that handles dust disposal, mop washing, and drying, so the vacuum is always ready to go. It features a 4.5L clean water tank and a 4L dirty water tank, ensuring multiple cleaning cycles before requiring a refill.

The AceClean DryBoard is one of the X50 Ultra’s most advanced features, ensuring that mop pads remain hygienic and fresh after every use. Unlike standard self-cleaning docks, which only rinse the mops with cold water, this system uses 80ยฐC hot water and 20 high-pressure nozzles to effectively break down dirt, grease, and bacteria trapped in the mop pads. This is a significant upgrade over the X30 Ultra, which washes at only 60ยฐC, making the X50 Ultra far more effective at maintaining a spotless mop.

Once the mop pads are thoroughly cleaned, the built-in drying system automatically blows hot air to prevent dampness, eliminating the risk of musty odours or mould growthโa common issue with robot vacuums that store wet mops. The UV sterilisation feature adds to this, further disinfecting the mops and dust collection bin, achieving a 99.98% bacteria elimination rate. This feature is missing in the X30 and X40 Ultra models, making the X50 Ultra a superior choice for users who prioritise hygiene and low maintenance.

The dust collection system is equally impressive, storing up to 3.2L of dirt before needing attention. Even after several rounds of cleaning pet hair, dust, and kitchen spills, the dock handled everything without requiring a manual cleanout. Additionally, the X50 Ultra supports automatic water refilling and drainage, an optional feature in other models but built-in for the X50 Master.
Unlike standard docks that charge the vacuum, this one ensures that it’s thoroughly cleaned, refilled, and ready for the next runโtrue hands-free automation.
An app that puts control in your hands

The Dreamehome app offers complete customisation, letting users schedule cleanings, set no-go zones, and adjust suction power and water usage for different rooms. The real-time mapping feature is handy, showing where the vacuum has been cleaned and where it’s heading.

The ability to customise cleaning zones ensures that high-traffic areas like the kitchen get deeper clean, while bedrooms or carpeted areas can be vacuumed without using the mop. Not all robot vacuums offer this level of control, making it an excellent feature for those who want tailored cleaning preferences.

Voice commands through direct voice calls, Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri work flawlessly, making it easy to start a cleaning session without lifting a finger. The multi-floor mapping function is another plus, allowing it to recognise different levels of a home without remapping each time.

The verdict: Dreame X50 Ultra
At S$2,299, the Dreame X50 Ultra is a premium investment that delivers industry-first features, unmatched automation, and superior cleaning performance. Compared to the X30 and X40 Ultra, which lack hot water washing, UV sterilisation, and advanced height adjustment, the X50 Ultra justifies its price tag by making home cleaning almost entirely hands-free.
For those who want a robot vacuum that truly does it all, this is as close as it gets to a self-sufficient cleaning system. If lifting a vacuum and moving your furniture are something you never want to do again, the X50 Ultra is the one to get.
