The A3 AWD Pro for 3,500 m²: two blade discs cutting 40 cm, all-wheel drive for 80% slopes, 70 m LiDAR with two cameras instead of RTK, edges to within 3 cm and a 36 V 7.5 Ah battery.

Our verdict
The Pro is the A3 built for a large lawn, and the 3500 is its middle battery size: 36 V and 7.5 Ah, between the 5 Ah of the 2500 and the 10 Ah of the 5000. Two blade discs cut 40 cm at a pass, the all-wheel drive is rated for 80% slopes and 5.5 cm obstacles, and EdgeMaster 2.0 holds the disc under 3 cm from a border. Navigation is the same LiDAR-and-camera system as the smaller A3, with 70 m of range, two stored maps and more than 300 recognised object types, with no RTK antenna and no wire. It weighs 23.9 kg, runs at 65 dB in the standard cutting mode and needs 80 cm passages. The product page gives neither a runtime nor a charging time, states no warranty term and does not repeat the A3 AWD's weather sensing. Dreame's German and US shops list it.
Pros

- 70 m LiDAR and two cameras, no RTK and no wire
- Edge cut within 3 cm of a border

Cons
- 23.9 kg and an 80 cm minimum passage width
- No runtime, charging time or warranty term on the product page
- Weather sensing is claimed for the A3 AWD, not for the Pro
- 65 dB in the standard cutting mode
Best for
- Lawns of 2,000 to 3,500 m² with slopes or tree cover

- Small gardens with passages under 80 cm
- Buyers who want a published runtime and warranty term before committing
