Our verdict

It costs $750.99 less than the typical LiDAR mower, $1,699.99 (median of 11). But the area is small: $7,908 per acre is about 83% above the $4,322 typical for LiDAR. It ranks #16 overall, #9 under $1,500, #10 for quiet at 58 dB, and #21 for large yards.

The RTK plus camera M5 is $679 for the same 0.12 acre, so $270 less. The M5 LiDAR drops the antenna question: it lists none needed, while the M5 does not state it. The M9 at $699 gives 0.25 acre and is the better buy on numbers.

For LiDAR with a bigger area and slope, the Dreame A3 AWD 1000 is $1,399.99 with 0.25 acre and an 80% limit. The Navimow i215 LiDAR is $1,399 with 0.37 acre and 45%.

Choose it if you want LiDAR on a tiny lawn and a low price. Skip it for anything larger than about an eighth of an acre. Anthbot is the only seller.
