Roborock has unveiled the Qrevo 2 Pro, a robot vacuum featuring 25,000Pa of suction and a Dual Anti-Tangle System meant to stop hair from wrapping around its brushes. It also lifts its mop pads automatically before rolling onto carpet, using Carpet Boost+ and Deep Carpet Cleaning to dig dirt out of rugs, while its dock washes, dries, refills and empties the unit on its own for up to 65 days. The device launches at a promotional price of $550.

Dreame, the Chinese vacuum maker turned aspiring tech conglomerate, has reportedly dissolved its automotive division 'Project Starry Sky,' which once had over 1,000 employees and produced a rocket-engine concept car shown in San Francisco. Only a small legal and HR team remains to wind down the unit, after Chinese regulators tightened scrutiny of the $3.4 trillion private fund industry and singled out Dreame's spending.

New testing of robotic pool vacuums shows that suction strength, measured in gallons of water pulled through per hour, matters less than how efficiently a robot navigates and targets debris. This year's test batch included models with AI-powered cameras and sensors that detect debris and redirect the robot toward it, a first for these tests. Corded models like the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus generally outperformed cordless ones like the Aiper Scuba V3 due to continuous power for repeated cleaning cycles.
