Our verdict
The A1 Pro is the LiDAR-only Dreame: OmniSense maps the garden with a 3D LiDAR of 70 m range and a 360° × 59° field of view, with no camera, no RTK antenna and no wire, and plans U-shaped passes. It is the lightest mower in Dreame's range at 12.6 kg, cuts 22 cm with three blades between 3 and 7 cm, drives to the edge where the border is level with the lawn, and climbs 45% on off-road tyres. The 5 Ah battery charges in 65 minutes at 3 A; the German table rates it for 2,000 m² and 1,000 m² a day in standard mode, while the Polish table, which also sells a 1,000 m² version, prints 800 and 1,600 m². It returns to the station in rain, sounds an alarm when lifted, stores two maps with a second station and has a colour display and jog wheel on the body. Dreame prints no noise figure and no runtime, names no PIN lock, and the 4G Link module is sold separately, so there is no tracking out of the box. The warranty is three years.
