According to the product specialist

Pros
Ultegra's level of quality is well known, as you can see in these wheels: reliable bearings, straightpull spokes, lightweight.
These bearings are easy to maintain thanks to the smoothly running cup-conus system. Runs fantastically and is more durable than industrial bearings.
Can be used with tubes and tubeless!
This wheel set is the best available choice among aluminium wheels with its extremely low weight of 1493 grams and its excellent DT240S hubs.
The PR 1400 DICUT 21 OXiC wheels have gorgeous features such as the all black brake tracks and diamond shaped hubs.
The ceramic OXiC brake track increases brake performance and is subject to a lower degree of wear than regular aluminium brake tracks.
With their low weight and 21mm rims these wheels are excellent for climbing and very suitable for all-round use
The rim height of 32 mm is stiffer and more aerodynamic than the 23 mm version.
The PR 1600 mid-range wheels from DT Swiss have good bearing quality, sealing and durability.
These wheels from DT Swiss's "PR Series" are one step lighter and stiffer than the "P Series", and represent excellent value for money.
The DT Swiss 350 hubs with the ratchet system engage quickly, ensuring quick acceleration after cornering.
Thanks to the Pro Lock nipple system, your wheels maintain much better spoke tension for a longer period of time.
The PR 1600 wheels in the mid-segment of DT Swiss' range offer good bearing quality, sealing and durability.
These wheels from the PR series are slightly lighter and stiffer than the P series, and are excellent value for money.
The DT Swiss 350 hubs with the ratchet system engage instantly for fast accelerating after a turn.
Thanks to the Pro Lock nipple system your wheels retain much better spoke tension for a long time.
The 23 mm rim height offers more comfort than a 32 mm rim height.
Cons
This wheelset's code doesn't immediately indicate Ultegra, but its quality is at Ultegra level.
For a DT Swiss wheel set with carbon rims the PRC series is recommended.
If you often ride on rough, sandy surfaces there is a chance that the black OXiC brake track may eventually show signs of wear.
Although the weight is relatively low, it can still be a bit too high for competitive cyclists. For an even lower weight, you can look at a DT Swiss wheelset in the PRC series.
Although the 32 mm high version offers more stiffness, you lose some comfort compared to the 23 mm high version.
Although the weight is relatively low, it can still be a bit too high for competitive cyclists. If you're looking for an even lower weight, you may want to consider a DT Swiss wheel set in the PRC series.
While the 23 mm version offers much comfort, the low rims provide little to no aerodynamic benefit.
The white/grey hubs do not go well with every bike colour.
