Introduction
The Mova P50 Pro Ultra arrives in 2025 as an ambitious proposition within the premium robot vacuum segment, whilst the Roborock Qrevo Curv, introduced in 2024, represents the technological consolidation of the world's leading brand in this sector. We are looking at two high-end devices with complete multifunction base stations, designed for users seeking total automation in home cleaning without sacrificing advanced features.
The choice between these models is not straightforward. Both offer laser navigation with dual cameras, mopping with rotating mops and intelligent detection systems. However, the technical differences can determine the user experience depending on the type of home and the specific needs of each household.
Power and Suction
In raw power, the Mova P50 Pro Ultra sits slightly above with its 19,000 Pa compared to the Roborock Qrevo Curv's 18,500 Pa. A difference that in practice is barely noticeable in day-to-day use, although it may be apparent when working on long-pile carpets or in homes with pets that shed a lot of hair.
More relevant is the difference in brushing systems. The Mova features a TriCut 3.0 brush, which combines bristles with blades designed to cut tangled hairs during operation. The Roborock opts for its DuoDivide anti-tangle system, which pushes hairs towards the central suction gap preventing them from wrapping around the brush. Two different philosophies: one cuts, the other redirects.
Both models raise the main brush during mopping to prevent it from getting wet and dragging damp dirt. Here the Mova adds an advantage: it also raises the side brush, something the Roborock doesn't do. This can make a difference in transitions between vacuuming and mopping zones, keeping the side brush dry when only mopping. Both devices include an extendable side brush to better reach corners, and in both cases it's anti-tangle.
Mopping
Both robots mop with a dual rotating mop system, the most effective configuration on the current market. The Mova P50 Pro Ultra additionally incorporates Roboswing movement, a wiggling motion of the robot that allows the mop to reach slightly under furniture or overhangs. The Roborock Qrevo Curv extends the mops to better reach edges, a function the Mova also includes.
In mop lifting we find a technical difference: the Roborock can raise them between 10 and 20 mm, adapting to carpet thickness, whilst the Mova reaches 10.5 mm. For homes with thick carpets, the Roborock's greater lift is more versatile.
An exclusive function of the Mova P50 Pro Ultra is automatic mop removal at the base station. This allows scheduling vacuum-only sessions without the mops touching the floor, useful when mopping isn't needed or for a quick pass without dampening. The Roborock doesn't offer this possibility.
Both detect dirt on the mops as well as on the floor, adjusting mopping as necessary. The base stations wash the mops with hot water and dry them with hot air, ensuring hygiene and preventing bad odours. The Mova boasts third-generation tray self-cleaning, compared to the Roborock's 2.0 version, although both fulfil their function perfectly.
Navigation System
Both devices feature a 3D LiDAR turret combined with dual front cameras and 3D laser sensor. Navigation is precise in both cases, with quick mapping and efficient room management. Here Roborock has years of experience refining its software, which shows in the app's fluidity.
The major difference lies in the obstacle database: the Mova P50 Pro Ultra recognises 160 different objects, more than double the Roborock Qrevo Curv's 62. This translates to better identification of everyday items and more accurate decisions about how to avoid them. The Mova also detects curtains, avoiding getting tangled in them, a function the Roborock doesn't incorporate.
Additionally, the Mova includes AI stain recognition, something the Roborock model doesn't offer. This allows the robot to identify specific stains on the floor and scrub them more insistently. Both models allow remote camera access and feature LEDs for night vision. Both recognise pets, useful for avoiding them or for sending photos when detected.
Autonomy and Battery
Here the Roborock Qrevo Curv takes a clear advantage. Its 6,400 mAh battery offers 240 minutes of autonomy, compared to the Mova P50 Pro Ultra's 5,200 mAh and 210 minutes. That's an extra 30 minutes which in large homes can avoid intermediate recharges during a complete clean.
In practice, both robots cover homes over 200 m² without problems, but the Roborock does so with a greater safety margin. For medium or small-sized homes, the difference is irrelevant. This is worth considering if the area to be cleaned exceeds 150 m² or if there are many rooms requiring multiple mopping sessions with mop washing.
Smart Functions
The ability to overcome obstacles differs significantly. The Mova P50 Pro Ultra overcomes obstacles up to 22 mm, whilst the Roborock Qrevo Curv manages single steps up to 4 cm. This represents a considerable advantage for the Roborock model in homes with pronounced level changes, transitions between rooms or small steps.
Both robots include their own voice assistant, in addition to compatibility with Alexa and Google Home. The Mova works with CleanGenius AI, whilst the Roborock uses SmartPlan 2.0, systems that optimise routes and adjust cleaning parameters according to the type of dirt detected.
Multifunction Cleaning Base Station
Both base stations are complete multifunction units: they auto-empty the dust container, wash the mops with hot water and dry them with hot air. The most relevant difference is in the detergent tank, which only the Mova P50 Pro Ultra includes. This allows automatic dosing of cleaning product during mop washing, improving hygiene without manual intervention. The Roborock doesn't offer this function.
The Mova's dust bag has 3.2 litres capacity compared to the Roborock's 2.5 litres. This means fewer bag changes throughout the year, especially in homes with pets or high traffic. The clean water tank is identical in both (4 litres), but the Mova's dirty water tank reaches 3.5 litres compared to the Roborock's 3 litres.
Neither offers integrated plumbing connection nor an optional kit for it. Neither includes UV disinfection. The tray self-cleaning works perfectly in both models, although the Mova boasts third generation.
Dimensions
The measurements are practically identical. The Mova P50 Pro Ultra has 350 mm diameter and 103.8 mm height. The Roborock Qrevo Curv measures 352 mm diameter and 103 mm height. A minimal difference that doesn't affect the ability to slip under furniture. Both pass without problem under standard sofas and beds.
As for the base stations, the Mova occupies 420 x 470 x 458 mm, whilst the Roborock has a more compact format at 450 x 450 x 450 mm. The Roborock's base station is more square-shaped and somewhat easier to position in corners or nooks.
Real-World User Experience
For large homes, the Roborock Qrevo Curv offers greater autonomy and better step management, which can be decisive in multi-storey houses or those with many rooms. Its DuoDivide anti-tangle system works exceptionally well with pet hair, although the Mova's TriCut 3.0 also resolves this problem effectively.
The Mova P50 Pro Ultra excels in pure intelligence: it recognises many more objects, detects curtains, identifies stains and automatically removes the mops when mopping isn't needed. For users who value total automation and want to forget about intervening, these functions make the difference. The detergent tank in the base station also adds convenience.
In mopping, both offer excellent performance. The Roborock lifts the mops higher, an advantage for thick carpets. The Mova adds Roboswing movement and also raises the side brush, details that improve cleaning in tricky areas.
Roborock's reliability as the world's leading brand is a factor to consider. Its app is highly polished after years of development. Mova, Dreame's second brand, offers cutting-edge technology at a more competitive price, although with less market track record.
Conclusion: Which to Choose?
Choose the Mova P50 Pro Ultra if you're looking for maximum artificial intelligence applied to cleaning, you value extensive obstacle and stain recognition, you want automatic mop removal and you find the integrated detergent tank useful. Ideal for those seeking cutting-edge technology and total automation without worrying about intervening.
Choose the Roborock Qrevo Curv if you prioritise extended autonomy, need to overcome steps up to 4 cm, value the proven reliability of the world's leading brand and prefer an app with years of refinement. Perfect for large homes, houses with pronounced level changes and users seeking a balance between advanced features and established user experience.
