Which has more suction, the Sora 10 or the Z1 Pro?

The Beatbot Sora 10, at 3,229 sq ft per charge versus 2,160 sq ft for the Z1 Pro. The Sora 10 also runs up to 300 minutes against 180.

Does the Sora 10 clean steps and ledges?

Yes. Beatbot lists shallow-area cleaning down to 12 inches of depth, which the Z1 Pro's floor, wall and waterline modes do not cover.

Is the Z1 Pro worth the extra over the Sora 10?

There is no Sora 10 price given to compare. The Z1 Pro is $319.00 at The Home Depot as of November 7, 2026, and buys more suction and battery but less runtime and coverage.

Which filter catches finer debris?

The Sora 10's 150 μm filter is finer than the Z1 Pro's 180 μm, so it traps smaller particles. Both have 5 L debris bins.

How long does each take to charge?

Dreame lists 360 minutes for the Z1 Pro. Beatbot does not list a charge time for the Sora 10.
