I have a Mamotion Luba 1000 which is non-wired. The hardware is very solid. The software last year was okay, and I was satisfied with it. This years software update is a giant step down in usability. I cannot recommend any Luba mowers right now to anyone. I'm happy to go into detail if you have questions.

Yikes. It got worse? Any indication from the company that they are going to fix it?
The only communication of intent I get is how the software is behaving today. A small part of it would be coding problems, the larger and more concerning part is the design philosophy in my mind. If they're doing it this way now, it doesn't look like a mistake.
One other challenge is the RTK signal to the robot. There are a couple larger than I'd like swaths next to the sides of the house that the mower can't go in because it can't get good navigational signal. It means I still have to mow those by hand.
If you do get one of these wireless mowers, get one with a decently long return period, then don't slack on testing every scenario you want covered so if it doesn't do what you want you could return it.
EcoFlow Blade is supposedly the current best model according to Consumer Reports but I haven't used one.
I'm currently leaning towards this one, because of the features for the price.
But I'd spend more to get more, if it's really worth it.
For anyone who finds this, I got a Navimow i110n and I love it.
