"Dreame, a Chinese company known for its unique robot vacuums and floor cleaners, expanded its offerings at CES 2026, such as a $700 floor lamp that doubled as a hair dryer. But more interesting is the debut of the company's first action camera. The Leaptic Cube features a design similar to the DJI Osmo Nano and Insta360 Go Ultra, allowing you to separate the compact camera from its screen so you can mount it in different places while still being able to see what you're capturing.But while those cameras max out at a 4K resolution, Dreame's does 8K."
"The Leaptic Cube features a 1/1.3-inch sensor, the same size DJI uses in the Osmo Nano, paired with a 155-degree wide-angle lens so it can capture more light to improve video quality, even when recording after the sun sets. Capturing at 8K limits the Cube's framerate to 30fps, but the extra pixels provide more room to crop and reframe footage afterwards, and facilitates the camera's built-in stabilization."
"Dropping the resolution to 4K boosts the frame rate to 60fps with HDR, or up to 120fps for capturing slo-mo footage. Dreame says the Cube's battery life can be extended to up to 220 minutes when using a "magnetically attached external battery dock," and that the camera can be attached to its 2.27-inch screen facing forwards or back, so you can use it to frame selfies. Other features include a proprietary wireless transmission system with a range of around 98 feet, AI-powered tracking and auto-framing, and an AI assistant that can be used to control the camera with voice commands while it's connected to a mobile app."
Dreame introduced the Leaptic Cube, its first action camera, featuring a detachable compact camera that pairs with a 2.27-inch screen for remote framing and selfies. The camera records up to 8K at 30fps using a 1/1.3-inch sensor and a 155-degree wide-angle lens to improve low-light capture. Switching to 4K enables 60fps with HDR or up to 120fps for slow motion. The design leverages extra pixels for cropping, reframing, and stabilization. Battery life can reach about 220 minutes with a magnetically attached external dock. The system includes a ~98-foot wireless link, AI tracking, auto-framing, and voice control via an AI assistant. Pricing and release timing are not provided.
