## What reviewers found

### MOVA LiDAX Ultra 1000

- PCtipp (4.5/5): Rated very good. Setup took 10 to 15 minutes, it climbed the claimed 45% slope, steered around a football and a wheelbarrow, and fast charging went from 15% to 90% in about 40 minutes. Runtime fell to a little over half of the expected 2.5 hours on hills, wet or tall grass. [Source](https://www.pctipp.ch/themen/tests/maehroboter-mova-lidax-ultra-1000-im-pctipp-test)
- inside digital: Critical verdict. LiDAR navigation was reliable under trees and the cut was clean, but auto mapping was poor, it drove into large flat objects, kept about 10 cm from edges instead of the claimed 5 cm, and dug tracks in soft ground. One charge did not cover 1,000 m². [Source](https://www.inside-digital.de/tests/mahroboter-mova-lidax-1000-ultra-beweglicher-maehteller-kantenschnitt-testbericht)

### Segway Navimow i105

- Top Ten Reviews: Clean first pass cut that handled dandelions; mowing a small lawn used about a quarter of the battery. Mower stopped and steered away when the tester stood in its path. Base slipped on an incline and had to be moved. Sub scores: navigation 9/10, cutting 8/10, battery 8/10, noise 9/10, interface 9/10. [Source](https://www.toptenreviews.com/segway-navimow-i105n-review)
- Android Police (7.5/10): Named Best value. Quiet and good value, but it did not always follow parallel lines, leaving unmowed strips, and struggled with corners. Manual height dial means no per zone heights; 60 min battery may be short for bigger lawns. [Source](https://tech.yahoo.com/home/articles/segway-navimow-i105n-review-cost-220012288.html)
