They are not as versatile as dry cordless vacuum cleaners, but scrubber vacuum cleaners also have their audience: people with homes with tile floors. There they are the absolute kings of mambo if you want to vacuum and scrub in one go. However, this category has always had an Achilles heel: they are heavy items, which makes them, for example, uncomfortable for my mother. So Dreame has put its latest model in the segment on a diet and the result is this T16 Pro Heat that we have just tested thoroughly. ✅ Buy it if… You have a house with tile floors. You have little time to clean and you want to vacuum and mop at the same time. Your floor stains easily. ❌ Don’t buy it if… Your budget is tight. You just want to aspire. You want a versatile scrubber vacuum cleaner. The essentials in 30 seconds The Dreame T16 Pro Heat is a scrubber vacuum cleaner, so you fill the tank with water and cleaner, press the power button and go around the house to clean it. Simplicity to power. You can’t choose to just vacuum or just mop, it does both at the same time and that has good and not so good things: it’s true that it saves time, but, for example, if the floor has a lot of hair (I live with two dogs weighing 35 kg each), it’s not the most pleasant or the cleanest. And be careful, it is not because it is not powerful: it is capable of swallowing even pellets of feed. I liked how easy it is to use, setting the automatic mode and forgetting about everything else. However, the best thing is that it is moderately light and manageable for a scrubber vacuum cleaner. Here’s my tenths to the Dreame design team. Of course, this lightness has its fine print: you will have to refill the dirty water tank often, but it is not something complex and/or dirty either. Of course, the most convenient thing is how it is cleaned: you place it on the base, press the button and a few minutes of noise later, you have it spotless to use again. And loaded. The price could vary. We earn commission from these links Our experience with the Dreame T16 Pro Heat What a piece of design. From the honesty: normally these types of cleaning devices are a tremendous piece of junk, but Dreame has said “hold my tank” and has reduced it to a minimum. It has just what is necessary to function (well) and it is placed in a very small capsule located in the central area, so that the distribution of weight both upright and lying down is balanced. In addition, the clean water tank goes in the brush area, which thanks to its motorized wheels literally slides by itself. The outstanding thing is that it barely measures 10 centimeters wide, so you can pass it under some furniture such as, in my case, the TV. Operation: a piece of cake. Everything is managed from the handle, where there are the buttons and a colorful screen where you can switch modes and receive notifications. My recommendation is not to complicate things and set it to automatic, so that it is the device that chooses when to increase the power and when not to. However, it also has a completely dispensable but interesting app for more personalized management and to have more information. Surprisingly effective in cleaning. The device itself detects when an area is dirtiest and at that moment you can hear it suck harder, and the truth is that it swallows even a popcorn. In general, loose solids go inside and it also has a medium-high performance with smaller and lighter ones such as hair or grit. But the best are the stains: drops of dried coffee, a spilled soda, sauces… I was surprised that even grease is removed well. Of course, it doesn’t clean with water alone: ​​it is very hot and also has a built-in cleaner. A huge difference with respect to the mop is that it has a plastic plate to dry evenly, so that you pass the head and in less than a minute you can step on the floor without fear. The floor in a good part of my house is laminate and I have not been afraid of humidity precisely for that reason. The only “but” I have is that since the head is large, there are areas where it inevitably does not fit. The battery is not going to be a problem. I admit that most of the time I have used the automatic mode because it is the one that best optimizes battery and performance, that is, it only increases the power when necessary. But even in scenarios where the house was dirty and had to run at full capacity almost all the time, I had enough battery to clean my apartment (70 square meters) twice in a row. To Caesar what belongs to Caesar: you are the one who holds the handle, you don’t make too many passes and we have already seen that this Dreame takes advantage of each pass. Then you place it on the base and you have it ready to use in every way. Maintenance: chiaroscuro. When you finish cleaning and leave the Dreame T16 Pro Heat on the base, all you have to do is press a button to start self-cleaning. At that moment a symphony of noise begins in which it has been thoroughly cleaned and dried with air and hot water, something essential because cleaning by hand would be a hassle and if you don’t do it, it would soon start to smell. Of course, it swallows a lot of water in the process, so you have to remove the tank from the head, put it under the tap and with a little skill, refill it. When you receive the notice, remove the dirty water tank … Read more

There are three things that catch my attention whenever I travel to China. The first, that the Chinese food in my city is Chinese what I am blonde. The second, the omnipresence of electric cars. The third, that everyone wears the same headphones: some Huawei FreeClip or similar. They are everywhere. Everywhere you look, someone is carrying them, it’s brutal. Today the Chinese firm has launched the new generation, the FreeClip 2Sand after having tried them, I think I understand why. ✅ Buy them if… You are looking for very comfortable headphones so you can wear them all day. You want to listen to music, podcasts or make calls without isolating yourself from the environment. You don’t want to have to remember to charge your headphones for a whole day. ❌ Don’t buy it if… You need noise cancellation. You are looking for high fidelity sound. You want some sneaky headphones. The essentials in 30 seconds The Huawei FreeClip 2S are unconventional headphones with a clear objective: that we can wear them all day. They are very different from what we usually see on the street, since instead of having a part that we put in the ear and a pole facing down, it has two small balls joined by a bridge that hook to the ear like, pardon the redundancy, a paper clip. They are not headphones designed for audiophiles nor do they seek to offer the best sound experience on the market, but rather they are another accessory that seeks to fit into a relatively dynamic lifestyle. The professionals are responsible for offering the best sound. FreeBuds Pro. FreeClips are something else and should be understood as such. They are, as we will see later, extremely comfortable and versatile. The sound, although it is not its strong point, is fine; and the autonomy is a true wonder. The “problem”, of course, is that it has a price of 229 euros, a somewhat high figure for headphones focused on lifestyle. 8.4 Design 8.0 Sound quality 7.0 Ergonomics 9 Usage experience 8.5 Battery 9.3 in favor They are the most comfortable headphones I have ever tried. The battery lasts the day without any problem They have a multipoint connection so they can be used with several devices at the same time. against The sound quality is not up to its price The finish of the case raises questions about its long-term durability Our experience with the Huawei FreeClip 2S Huawei FreeClip 2S | Image: Xataka How to use them. These headphones have three components: the Comfort Beam (the piece that is behind the ear and where the battery is), the Acoustic Ball (the one that we put inside the ear and where the driver is) and the Airy Bridge-C (the bridge that joins both). They are placed in the ear as if they were a clip and the bridge, which has a certain tension, ensures that the headphones stay in one place. It takes getting used to, things are the way they are, but in a couple of days you get used to them, and in what way. Some headphones to forget about. Simply put, they are the most comfortable TWS headphones I have tried in all my time testing headphones. They are one of the few headphones that I have been able to wear all day, even without playing anything. They are very light, pleasant to the touch and do not move during typical day-to-day journeys. What they are not is sneaky. They attract a lot of attention and will be noticed when you wear them, which is no drama, but that’s it. Unlike 99% of headphones in the world, the FreeClip 2S does not have one earpiece for the right ear and one for the left ear. You can put each earbud in the ear you want. Relearn gestures. You can double-tap any part of the headset to pause music or accept a call; or invoke Gemini by tapping three times. You can also summon the assistant by touching the Comfort Beam from behind, and even control the volume by swiping up or down on it. What I have found most comfortable is adding touches to the bridge. It’s strange, because it’s not “natural” to tap the area that holds something to your ear, but not only do the headphones hold without a problem, but the sensitivity is exceptional. Huawei FreeClip 2S | Image: Xataka The new case. It is totally different from anything I have seen so far. It is a kind of ball with a mirror effect that is more reminiscent of a ring box than a headphone charging base. The lid is magnetized and offers good resistance, and the headphones are placed with the Comfort Beam facing down (it doesn’t matter right or left). It’s very cool, but it gets covered in fingerprints just by looking at it, it bulges more than I would like in my pants and I’m not sure that that shiny finish is going to resist the amalgamation of metal objects that may be in a pocket or a bag. Decent sound. The headphones work (well) for everyday use, but that’s it. The bass has surprising punch for the format and, at normal volumes, the mids and bass are fine. If we raise the volume more than necessary, they distort a little. For their price, there are headphones that sound much, much better, but of course, these headphones are not about the sound experience, but about ergonomics and lifestyle. Calls go very, very well, and the adaptive volume allows us to forget to a certain extent about manually lowering and raising the volume when we change sound scenarios. They have a multipoint connection, so we can connect them to the mobile phone and other devices at the same time and switch between them interchangeably. That’s always a plus. Excellent battery (and great charging). The headphones last all day without problem. In fact, it has been impossible for me to drain … Read more
