No need to redirect a sad appliance that’s found itself stuck in a corner. This dirt-sucking device, released in February, uses smart navigation (it can recognize up to 200 objects) and responds to voice commands. It can also mop and clean steps and get over obstacles like cords, thanks to its new ProLeap system’s retractable legs that climb up to two-and-a-half inches. In other words, the X50 Ultra is made for actual homes, with room thresholds and clutter. Dreame says it's their best-selling robot vacuum to date. **Buy Now:** Dreame X50 Ultra on [Amazon](https://amzn.to/3IKeBiB "undefined") Dreame X50 Ultra: The Best Inventions of 2025 ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2025/7318377/dreame-x50-ultra/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2025/7318377/dreame-x50-ultra/"},"headline":"Dreame X50 Ultra","datePublished":"2025-10-09T11:00:17.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T11:54:52.992Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2025/7318377/dreame-x50-ultra/","keywords":["Tech","best inventions","Special Project","sponsorshipblock","Accolades","Best Inventions 2025"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt746b56d83a8ab3c7/6998ca817323af6dee2bcec1/Pet-Zone-Cleaning-Customization-2.0%E5%AE%A0%E7%89%A9%E5%8C%BA%E5%9F%9F.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Leslie Horn Peterson","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/leslie-horn-peterson/"}],"creator":"Leslie Horn Peterson","articleSection":"Business","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt746b56d83a8ab3c7/6998ca817323af6dee2bcec1/Pet-Zone-Cleaning-Customization-2.0%E5%AE%A0%E7%89%A9%E5%8C%BA%E5%9F%9F.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/business/","name":"Business"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-tech/","name":"Tech"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2025/7318377/dreame-x50-ultra/","name":"Dreame X50 Ultra"}}]}] ```
