What the differences mean

Suction power

The Dreame X50 Ultra Complete is rated at 20000Pa and the iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo at 13000Pa. On carpet and with pet hair, the Dreame has the clear advantage on paper.

Battery life

The Dreame X50 Ultra Complete lists 220 minutes and the iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo 120. In a large home the Roomba is more likely to stop and recharge in the middle of a clean.

Warranty

The Dreame X50 Ultra Complete is covered for 3 years and the iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo for 1 year. Given the failures Roomba owners describe, the shorter cover is the difference that matters most.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

The iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo supports 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, while the Dreame X50 Ultra Complete is 2.4 GHz only with no Bluetooth. Roomba owners still found setup smoothest on a 2.4 GHz network.

Weight

The Dreame X50 Ultra Complete weighs 4.53 kg and its dock 9.09 kg. The iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo is about 5.7 kg and its dock about 8.5 kg, so the Roomba robot is heavier.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both robots praise the same idea: accurate mapping and a dock that empties, washes and dries the mop without help. Dreame X50 Ultra Complete owners add strong pickup of pet hair from carpet, easy zones and schedules and a robot quieter than its suction suggests, and their caveats are software glitches after some updates, patchy cleaning along edges and shorter real-world battery life. iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo owners with a healthy unit love the smooth obstacle avoidance and the extending roller mop that leaves floors nearly dry. A large share of the rest report false bin and dirty-water-tank errors, leaking docks, streaks and puddles from the mop, a buggy app and a loud, frustrating setup, and some returned it for a rival brand.
