Introduction
Dreame presents two proposals within its catalogue of robot vacuum cleaners with multifunctional base stations that show notable differences in features and technology. The Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 3, launched in November 2025, represents a well-established option with advanced features and a more accessible price. The Dreame X60 Pro Ultra, which arrived on the market in May 2026, positions itself as the brand's most complete alternative, incorporating cutting-edge technology and functions that place it in the highest range.
Both units are designed for users looking to fully automate home cleaning, although the X60 Pro Ultra targets those who prioritise the maximum available technology and have no height restrictions under furniture. The L10s Ultra Gen 3 may be more suitable for homes with limited space under furniture or for those seeking a balance between features and price.
Power and Suction
The difference in suction power is significant. The Dreame X60 Pro Ultra develops 42,000 Pa, a figure that far exceeds the 25,000 Pa of the L10s Ultra Gen 3. In practice, this translates into greater capacity to extract embedded dirt from carpets and tile joints.
The brushing system marks another important difference. The X60 Pro Ultra features a dual HyperStream brush, a specific Dreame design that drastically reduces hair tangles thanks to its anchoring at one end. The L10s Ultra Gen 3 mounts a single brush, less effective when there are pets at home.
The main brush of the X60 Pro Ultra can be raised during mopping, preventing it from getting unnecessarily wet. The L10s Ultra Gen 3 does not include this function. Something similar occurs with the side brush: the more advanced model raises it automatically when mopping, whilst the Gen 3 keeps the side brush fixed, although it does have an extension to better reach corners.
The side brush of the X60 Pro Ultra also incorporates anti-tangle technology and a specific brush for skirting boards, features absent on the L10s Ultra Gen 3. These differences are especially noticeable in homes with long-haired pets or in dwellings where dust accumulates at the junctions between floor and wall.
Mopping
Both robots use two rotating mops, but the X60 Pro Ultra system adds functions that substantially improve results. Mop extension is present on both models, although the X60 Pro Ultra combines it with Roboswing movement, allowing the mops to better reach under overhangs and furniture.
Mop lift reaches 21.5 mm on the X60 Pro Ultra, more than double the 10.5 mm of the L10s Ultra Gen 3. This capability is decisive when moving over carpets or mats, as it prevents accidentally wetting them.
Mopping with hot water at 45°C on the X60 Pro Ultra makes a real difference compared to the cold water of the L10s Ultra Gen 3. Hot water better dissolves grease and adhered dirt, especially in kitchens. Additionally, the superior model can automatically remove the mops at the base when only vacuuming is needed, something the Gen 3 does not allow.
Dirt detection works on two levels on the X60 Pro Ultra: it identifies when the mops are dirty to wash them and detects stains on the floor to scrub it. The L10s Ultra Gen 3 lacks both functions, which means it follows predefined cleaning patterns without adapting to the actual dirt encountered.
Navigation System
The Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 3 mounts a traditional third-generation LiDAR turret, whilst the X60 Pro Ultra incorporates retractable LiDAR. This design allows reducing the total height of the robot without sacrificing mapping precision.
The biggest difference lies in the visual recognition system. The X60 Pro Ultra integrates a dual RGB camera with artificial intelligence that identifies up to 320 different types of obstacles. The L10s Ultra Gen 3 has a front 3D laser sensor but does not incorporate a camera, which limits its recognition capability.
Remote access to the X60 Pro Ultra camera allows monitoring the home from the mobile application, a function non-existent on the Gen 3 model. The night vision LED complements this capability, facilitating object recognition even in low light.
Both robots recognise pets, but only the X60 Pro Ultra detects curtains to avoid getting tangled. This function is practical in homes with long curtains or net curtains that reach the floor.
Autonomy and Battery
The Dreame X60 Pro Ultra battery has a capacity of 6,400 mAh, exceeding the 5,200 mAh of the L10s Ultra Gen 3. The Gen 3 model offers 231 minutes of declared autonomy, whilst the X60 Pro Ultra incorporates the Power Master system, although the table does not specify the exact minutes.
This difference in capacity is mainly noticeable in large homes where the robot needs to complete all the cleaning without intermediate recharges. In medium or small-sized flats, both units complete the job without problems.
Smart Functions
The ability to overcome obstacles differs notably. The L10s Ultra Gen 3 clears steps up to 20 mm, whilst the X60 Pro Ultra can handle single steps of greater height thanks to its improved system, although the table does not detail the exact measurement.
The built-in voice assistant is only present on the X60 Pro Ultra, allowing commands to be given directly to the robot without needing to use the mobile. Both models are compatible with external assistants such as Alexa or Google Home.
Multifunctional Cleaning Base
Both bases perform auto-emptying of the dust container, washing and drying of mops with hot air, as well as including a detergent tank. The dust bag capacity is identical: 3.2 litres in both cases.
The main difference lies in the temperature of the mop washing water. The X60 Pro Ultra washes with hot water, whilst the L10s Ultra Gen 3 uses cold water. Hot water washing better eliminates grease residue and dirt accumulated on the mops.
Self-cleaning of the washing tray works on both, although the X60 Pro Ultra also uses hot water for this task. The clean water tanks are 4.5 litres on the Gen 3 and 4.2 litres on the X60 Pro Ultra. Dirty water is stored in 4 litres and 3 litres respectively.
Both models offer an optional plumbing connection kit, which is purchased separately and allows you to forget about manually refilling and emptying tanks.
Dimensions
The diameter is identical on both: 350 mm. Height marks the most relevant difference. The Dreame X60 Pro Ultra measures 79.5 mm high, whilst the L10s Ultra Gen 3 reaches 97 mm. This difference of almost 2 centimetres determines whether the robot can pass under furniture, beds or low sofas.
In homes with furniture at low height from the floor, the X60 Pro Ultra accesses spaces where the Gen 3 cannot enter. This reduces areas that remain uncleaned and avoids having to move furniture manually.
The dimensions of the L10s Ultra Gen 3 base are 340 mm wide, 590 mm high and 457 mm deep. The table does not provide the measurements of the X60 Pro Ultra base, although they are usually similar on models from the same brand.
Real-World Usage Experience
For large homes, the X60 Pro Ultra offers greater autonomy thanks to its 6,400 mAh battery and superior power. Dirt detection optimises battery consumption by concentrating efforts where really needed.
In homes with pets, the dual HyperStream anti-tangle brush of the X60 Pro Ultra drastically reduces maintenance. The anti-tangle side brush adds another point in its favour. The L10s Ultra Gen 3, with a single brush, requires more frequent manual cleaning when there is animal hair.
Hot water mopping on the X60 Pro Ultra makes a difference in kitchens with grease or in homes where mopping is frequent. Washing mops with hot water keeps the mops truly clean, something that cold water does not achieve as well.
The reduced height of the X60 Pro Ultra makes it ideal for homes with low furniture, trundle beds or sofas with little clearance from the floor. The L10s Ultra Gen 3, being taller, may get blocked in these spaces.
Conclusion: Which to Choose?
Choose the Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 3 if you're looking for a complete automatic cleaning solution with a multifunctional base without needing the latest technologies. It is suitable for medium-sized homes without long-haired pets, where the relationship between features and price becomes important. If you don't have very low furniture and don't need functions such as camera with remote access or advanced dirt detection, this model performs perfectly.
Choose the Dreame X60 Pro Ultra if you prioritise maximum suction power and available technology. It is the option for homes with pets thanks to its anti-tangle brushes, large homes requiring greater autonomy, or if you need to pass under low-height furniture. Hot water mopping, real-time dirt detection and recognition of up to 320 obstacles justify the price difference for users seeking the best robot vacuum cleaner without compromises. The camera with remote access adds extra functionality for those who value monitoring the home when away.
