Dolphin Proteus DX3
Score: 74/100
Dolphin Nautilus CC
Score: 57/100Rankings
The Dolphin Proteus DX3 offers wall-climbing, smart navigation and a powerful 4000 gph suction for comprehensive cleaning of pools up to 33 ft. It falls short on advanced scheduling, app integration and waterline scrubbing. Ideal for budget-conscious homeowners who need floor and wall cleaning without smart-home features.
The Dolphin Nautilus CC bundle provides a universal caddy and a heavy-duty UV-resistant cover, adding convenience and protection for the robot. However, the package does not disclose any performance metrics such as runtime or suction power. Best for owners who already have a compatible Nautilus CC and need storage and transport accessories.

Industry listings and retailer copy present the Proteus DX3 as a solid entry-level robotic cleaner, praising its lightweight build, strong suction, and straightforward plug-and-play operation, while consistently noting the missing smart features such as timers, app control, and waterline scrubbing as drawbacks.
