UniFi Dream Router vs Express 7

The UniFi Dream Router (UDR) and the UniFi Express 7 (UX7) are both part of UniFi's Wi-Fi integrated Cloud Gateway lineup. The former is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router while the latter is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 router. All five of the UDR's ports are 1 GbE, with two of them supporting PoE (Power over Ethernet), while the UX7 has a 2.5 GbE LAN port and a 10 GbE WAN port. The UDR also boasts a microSD card slot and a built-in 128GB SSD for storing network video files. While both routers support UniFi's powerful 'Network' application for managing your network, the UDR supports the entire UniFi application suite for managing security cameras, VOIP phones and more. The UX7 is much faster overall, but its 5GHz band has worse range than the UDR.
