New robot vacuums are constantly appearing on the Indian market. Recently, Dreame Technology released a range of new models, among which the Dreame L50s Pro Ultra is positioned as the most powerful robot cleaner in this line. This review examines in detail how well the new variant handles its tasks.
!This device performs not only dry vacuuming but also floor washing (mopping function). It is capable of washing its own pads, drying them, and emptying the dustbin autonomously. Thus, the user only needs to periodically refill clean water and empty dirty water. The robot has a high degree of autonomy, allowing it to completely clean the house daily without user intervention.
At first glance, the Dreame L50s Pro Ultra looks like a premium product due to its elegant design and sturdy dock station. Although the base station is quite large and requires space for placement, the robot itself has a round shape and sufficient height to easily move under most furniture, such as beds and sofas. During use in the home, there were no issues with getting stuck, and the build quality feels reliable, even with daily use.
The initial setup took about ten minutes. You need to download the Dreame app and connect the robot to Wi-Fi. After that, the device begins mapping the entire house, and the quick mapping option significantly sped up the process. The map of a three-room apartment was ready in just a few minutes. Through the app, the user can rename rooms, set no-go zones, and specify whether a particular room requires only vacuuming or a combination of vacuuming and mopping.
The main feature of the robot is its cleaning ability. Dreame equipped it with a Vormax vacuum pump with a power of 30,000 Pa, making it one of the most powerful robot vacuums released in India to date. In practice, this is confirmed by its ability to effectively remove dust, hair, cookie crumbs, rice, and food residue without difficulty. The HyperStream DuoBrush system and anti-tangle design minimize hair wrapping around the brushes, which is a common problem for robots.
Regarding wet cleaning, the L50s Pro Ultra surpassed many other models. It easily handles daily dust, shoe marks, and light stains. Although old, dried stains may require re-treatment, a second attempt at cleaning in the same spot successfully removes the dirt. The user liked the mopping system because the robot tries to reach the edges of the rooms, and the retractable mops and side brushes improve corner cleaning.
The robot is capable of overcoming obstacles up to 40 mm high. There was a small step in the house between the room and the balcony that most robots would not be able to overcome. The Dreame L50s Pro Ultra managed this small barrier, continued cleaning on the balcony, and returned. This feature is called EasyLeap System and proved useful in real life when there is a small level difference between rooms.
Navigation is based on artificial intelligence and is practical. The robot does not just move randomly; it uses an intelligent route planning system and an AI collision avoidance system capable of recognizing over 220 different objects. In the house, it successfully avoided chairs, table legs, shoes, and charging cables.
The Dreame app is the central element of the system. Through it, you can customize cleaning in each room individually, select the mode (vacuum only or mop only), adjust suction power, water amount, cleaning pattern, and set a schedule for repeated cleaning. After several days of use, an automatic daily schedule was set. The base station performs more than just charging: after finishing the cleaning, it empties the dust container itself, washes the mops with hot water at 100 degrees Celsius, dries them with hot air, and prepares them for the next cycle. The standard dust bag holds 3.2 liters, which reduces the frequency of emptying it.
The robot is equipped with a 5,200 mAh battery, which was enough to completely clean a three-room apartment on a single charge. If the charge drops during operation, it automatically returns to the base to recharge and continues cleaning from where it stopped. There is noise, but mainly during the dustbin emptying process at the station. Otherwise, the robot operates quite quietly compared to conventional vacuum cleaners; the volume can be adjusted through the app, although maximum suction power comes with an increased noise level.
This device might be overkill for owners of small apartments (1RK or 1BHK), who can clean manually in 10–15 minutes, as the device price is high. Its effectiveness may also be limited in homes with very high carpets or obstacles higher than 4 centimeters. Since the device costs over 50 thousand, it is aimed at users who want to automate daily cleaning.
After several weeks of operation, the Dreame L50s Pro Ultra proved to be an outstanding device. The greatest impression was made by its cleaning quality, mopping, ability to overcome small obstacles, and the fully automated base station. New features have been added to the updated app, such as the ability to edit maps and select cleaning priorities. The robot also supports manual control. An additional advantage is the front camera, which allows remote monitoring of the home's condition. When the owner is absent, the home can be viewed through the camera with a clear picture without delay, including the ability to see people in bed. The camera is equipped with lighting in the dark. Cleaning automation, especially for homes with a lot of dust or pets, saves significant time. Despite the high price, the device provides a level of comfort that surpasses the capabilities of standard robot vacuums, making it suitable for large homes if the budget allows.

Meta has initiated a program in Brazil aimed at developers, students, researchers, and professionals interested in creating new applications for its smart glasses. This initiative seeks to expand the range of functionalities available on the device.
In collaboration with CEIA-UFG, the program offers training, a hackathon, and cash prizes. Furthermore, it fosters a crucial debate accompanying the launch of these glasses: the issue of user privacy.
After reaching millions of users, Meta's smart glasses are entering a new phase where the company aims to increase the number of compatible applications, betting on Brazilian talent to accelerate this process. The AI Glasses Brazil Program, developed in partnership with the Center of Excellence in Artificial Intelligence of the Federal University of Goiás (CEIA-UFG), invites participants to design new applications using features such as camera, audio, voice commands, and artificial intelligence.
Proposals can cover various areas, including health, education, accessibility, tourism, productivity, and creativity. The program is structured in several phases: online technical training; a virtual idea marathon with mentoring and lectures; an in-person hackathon held at Meta's headquarters in São Paulo for selected teams; and finally, cash prizes and the delivery of smart glasses to the winners.
Registration remains open until July 30th. Teams advancing to the in-person phase will have their transportation and accommodation costs covered by the company. The main winners will receive US$3,000 (approximately R$15,000), while second and third place winners will be awarded US$2,000 (about R$10,000) and US$1,000 (about R$5,000), respectively. All finalists will also receive a pair of Meta glasses.
The device's capabilities go beyond simple photography and video recording. For example, it is possible to send images via WhatsApp using only voice commands or view data directly on the lenses and perform actions through gestures. Despite these functionalities, the application offering is still limited, motivating Meta to provide a development kit to attract new solution creators.
With the increase in functions, concerns grow. A notable example was the development by Harvard students of a facial recognition system for Meta glasses, capable of displaying internet information about filmed people. Additionally, there have been reports of the equipment being used by United States immigration agents during operations, intensifying the debate on surveillance.
Another sensitive aspect relates to media storage; photos and videos are kept in Meta's cloud and can be used to train its AI models, including with the help of human reviewers. The company also had to respond to attempts by users to disable the recording LED. Currently, the glasses stop recording if this indicator is damaged. Although the program opens doors for innovation, it is expected that these new applications will evolve alongside mechanisms that reinforce privacy protection.
