Introduction
Mova presents three options within its 2025 range that share many features, but with technical differences that may influence the choice depending on the type of home and cleaning needs. The Mova P50s Ultra, the Mova V50 Ultra and the Mova Z50 Ultra are designed for users seeking a complete robot vacuum with a multifunction base, although each has particular characteristics worth analysing.
All three models include advanced navigation, mopping systems with rotating mops or roller, and bases that wash and dry the mops automatically. However, differences in suction power, type of main brush, robot height and some base functions may tip the balance towards one model or another depending on the user profile.
Power and Suction
The Mova P50s Ultra and the Mova V50 Ultra share a suction power of 24,000 Pa, a figure that places them in the high-end market segment. This capacity is especially useful on medium-pile carpets and for homes with pets that shed a lot of hair. The Z50 Ultra remains at 19,000 Pa, a difference that may be noticeable on dense carpets or when there is significant dirt accumulation.
The main brush marks an important difference between models. Both the P50s Ultra and the V50 Ultra feature a dual brush system that minimises hair tangles, something that in practice greatly facilitates maintenance. The Z50 Ultra uses the TriCut 3.0 system, which combines bristles with blades to cut tangled hairs, although it requires somewhat more periodic manual cleaning.
All three models raise the main brush during mopping to prevent it from getting wet, and also incorporate an extendable and liftable side brush, with anti-tangle technology. This improves cleaning in corners and edges without hairs accumulating on the side brush.
Mopping
The mopping system presents significant variations. The P50s Ultra and the V50 Ultra use two rotating mops with side extension that includes active movement to better reach edges. The Z50 Ultra opts for a wide roller with an additional mini side mop, a different design that also covers edges well but with a different working mechanism.
Mop lift reaches 10.5 mm on the P50s Ultra and V50 Ultra, sufficient to pass over thin carpets without wetting them. The Z50 Ultra remains at 7 mm, which may limit its ability to avoid thicker carpets during mopping.
A key difference lies in the mopping water temperature. The P50s Ultra mops with cold water, whilst the V50 Ultra and the Z50 Ultra heat the water, which helps to better dissolve grease and adhered dirt. For kitchens or areas with difficult stains, this function makes a difference in the final result.
The P50s Ultra and the V50 Ultra can automatically detach the mops at the base when you only want to vacuum, avoiding having to do it manually. The Z50 Ultra does not include this function, which requires removing the mops by hand if you wish to vacuum without mopping. All three models detect dirt both on the mops and on the floor to adjust washing or scrubbing as necessary.
Navigation System
The navigation system is one of the points where these robots differ most. The P50s Ultra uses FlashPulse, a system without a visible turret that reduces the robot's height. The V50 Ultra incorporates retractable LiDAR, which also maintains a low profile but with laser precision. The Z50 Ultra features a traditional LiDAR turret, which explains its greater height.
All three units include dual camera with artificial intelligence, front 3D laser sensor and LED for night vision. The P50s Ultra and the V50 Ultra recognise up to 200 different types of obstacles, whilst the Z50 Ultra reaches 160. In practice, this difference may be noticeable in homes with many small objects on the floor or complex configurations.
All models allow remote camera access, recognise pets and detect curtains to avoid tangles. Intelligent navigation with CleanGenius is present in all three, adjusting routes and cleaning strategies according to the type of floor and detected dirt.
Autonomy and Battery
Battery capacity is identical in all three models: 6,400 mAh. Only the V50 Ultra specifies 220 minutes of autonomy, although it is foreseeable that the P50s Ultra offers similar figures as it shares battery and power. The Z50 Ultra, with lower suction power, could extend autonomy somewhat more, although the exact figure is not available.
This capacity is suitable for homes of up to 200-250 m² in a single cleaning cycle, especially if vacuuming and mopping are combined. In larger homes, the robot will return to the base to recharge and continue automatically.
Smart Functions
The P50s Ultra and V50 Ultra can overcome simple steps thanks to their design, although the exact height is not specified. The Z50 Ultra indicates capacity to overcome obstacles of up to 22 mm, which facilitates passage between rooms with small level differences or access to thick carpets.
All three models integrate their own voice assistant and are compatible with Alexa and Google Home, allowing voice control without needing to open the app. This function is convenient for launching quick cleans or sending the robot to specific areas using voice commands.
Multifunction Cleaning Base
All three bases include auto-emptying of the dust container, washing and drying of mops. Washing is carried out with hot water in all three cases, which improves mop hygiene. Drying also uses hot air to prevent bad odours and bacterial proliferation.
The P50s Ultra and the V50 Ultra incorporate third-generation washing tray self-cleaning, which keeps the base more hygienic without manual intervention. Additionally, they include UV disinfection to eliminate bacteria on the mops after washing. The Z50 Ultra does not have these two functions, which may require more attention in base maintenance.
The V50 Ultra stands out for its dual detergent tank, useful for using different products depending on the type of floor or alternating between daily and intensive cleaning. The P50s Ultra and the Z50 Ultra have a single detergent tank.
Regarding capacities, the Z50 Ultra offers greater size in all tanks: 4-litre dust bag compared to 3.2 litres, 4.5-litre clean water tank compared to 4 litres, and 4-litre dirty water tank compared to 3.5 litres. This reduces maintenance frequency in large homes or with several weekly cleans.
Dimensions
Robot height is a determining factor for passing under furniture. The P50s Ultra measures 82.5 mm in height, the lowest of the three and capable of accessing under most sofas and beds. The V50 Ultra reaches 89.5 mm, still manageable for many pieces of furniture. The Z50 Ultra, at 111 mm, may have more difficulty fitting under low furniture due to its traditional LiDAR turret.
The diameter is identical in all three: 350 mm. The robot's water tank also varies: 80 ml on the P50s Ultra and V50 Ultra, compared to 160 ml on the Z50 Ultra, which allows the latter model to mop larger surfaces without returning to the base to refill.
Base dimensions are similar, although the Z50 Ultra is somewhat taller (545 mm compared to 470 mm) and slightly narrower (390 mm compared to 420 mm). It is advisable to measure the available space before deciding where to place the base.
Real-world experience
For homes with pets that shed a lot of hair, the P50s Ultra and the V50 Ultra offer clear advantages thanks to the dual anti-tangle brush and greater suction power. The Z50 Ultra, with its TriCut 3.0 system, also works well but may require somewhat more manual brush cleaning.
In large homes, the Z50 Ultra has the advantage of larger tanks in the base and in the robot, which reduces interruptions and maintenance tasks. The P50s Ultra and V50 Ultra compensate with tray self-cleaning and UV disinfection functions that keep the base more hygienic in the long term.
If the home has low furniture, the P50s Ultra is the best option due to its height of only 82.5 mm. The V50 Ultra remains viable in most cases, but the Z50 Ultra may be limited in this aspect.
For users who value intensive mopping, the V50 Ultra with hot water for mopping the floor and dual detergent tank offers the best performance. The Z50 Ultra also mops with hot water, although without the versatility of the dual tank or automatic mop detachment.
