### MOVA V50 Ultra Complete

- Vacuum Wars (3.69 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 1.47 kPa suction, 88% sand pickup, 88% pet hair pickup, 14 of 24 obstacles avoided, about 1,033 sq ft per charge and an overall mopping score of 230 against a 188 average. First robot it tested to cross all three test thresholds. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/mova-v50-ultra-complete-review/)
- SlashGear: Cleaned a whole apartment with mopping in just under an hour using a little over 40% of the battery. Quieter than other robots tested, but misread one threshold and missed a room in some runs. [Source](https://www.slashgear.com/1945578/mova-v50-ultra-complete-review-robot-vacuum)

### Roborock Saros 10R

- BGR: Called it Roborock's best model at launch. It fit under sofas and beds, had about 57% battery left after about 80 minutes of vacuuming and mopping, and needed tank service every four to six cleanings. It tangled in cables until a no go zone was set. [Source](https://bgr.com/reviews/roborock-saros-10r-review/)
- TechRadar: Noise measured 62 dB at source and 55 dB at 10 feet. Oats were cleared but flour stayed in floor seams on Max and Max+. It cleaned a syrup, soy sauce and milk spill in one pass on low water and mapped five areas in about 5 min. It rode over a 1 inch dog bone until Pet mode was turned on, and the dust bag filled in about three weeks.

- Vacuum Wars (3.64 Vacuum Wars stars): Picked up 80% of embedded sand from medium pile carpet against a 75% average and 92% of flattened pet hair, with 0% hair tangling. Avoided 24 of 24 obstacles. Cleared 20 mm and 26 mm boards but failed a single 36 mm threshold. Estimated about 1,389 sq ft per charge. The onboard bin is 270 ml. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/roborock-saros-10r-review)
