Segway Navimow Review 2026: Which Navimow Robot Mower Is Right for You?

Navimow groups its mowers into series. Here is what each one is for:

• i1 (i105, i110): entry-level, small lawns, satellite positioning with an antenna.
• i2 AWD: small mowers with all-wheel drive for bumpy ground.
• i2 LiDAR: uses a laser sensor and camera instead of satellites, so there is no antenna to install.
• H1 (H800-VF, H1500-VF, H3000-VF) and H2 (H210, H220): mid-range models. Segway lists H2 with an AI navigation system but publishes few details on its US page.
• X3: big, fast two-wheel-drive mowers for large lawns.
• X4 (X430, X450): four-wheel drive with 84% slope rating.

Most Navimow models use RTK, short for real-time kinematic. It is a way of correcting satellite positioning to within a few centimetres, either through a small antenna in your garden or through a phone-network service called network RTK.

Independent reviewers are mostly positive. PCWorld praised the X430's navigation on a complicated lawn. TechRadar gave the X3 series 4.5 out of 5 for performance and 5 out of 5 for its app. Notebookcheck said the i2 LiDAR Pro has more strengths than weaknesses, with reliable navigation and good off-road ability.

The recurring weak point is edge cutting. Notebookcheck measured roughly a 10 cm uncut strip along borders on the i2 LiDAR, and reviewers note the X4 leaves fine detail to you. Owner discussions on Reddit also mention that path planning can look random compared with some rivals. Plan to run a strimmer along edges every few weeks.

In the 48 contiguous US states, Segway offers Navimow Flex, a monthly rental plan. In October 2026 it costs $100 a month for the i105n and $130 a month for the i110n, including blades, support and a warranty while you subscribe. You can cancel by returning the mower.

Over a full season this costs more than buying an i105 outright, so it suits people who want to try a robot mower before committing. See our robot lawn mower cost guide for the full maths.

Navimow usually undercuts Husqvarna for the same lawn size. The one-acre, all-wheel-drive X430 costs around $2,499, while Husqvarna's half-acre 410 iQ is around $2,599. Husqvarna's advantage is its dealer network.

Mammotion's LUBA 3 AWD claims a similar slope rating (80%) and adds LiDAR to its satellite positioning, which can help under trees. The X430 has a wider cutting height range, up to 4 in. Our Husqvarna vs Segway Navimow comparison goes deeper.

In late July 2026 the US Federal Communications Commission added foreign-made advanced robotic devices to its Covered List. According to Consumer Reports and Techlicious, this blocks new models from getting the approval they need to be sold in the US. Models already approved, including the current Navimow range, can still be sold, and mowers already in homes keep getting updates.

The practical effect is that some newer Navimow models shown at trade shows may not reach US stores. UK buyers are not affected by this rule.

We have not tested Navimow mowers. We used Segway Navimow's US and UK product and spec pages, independent reviews from PCWorld, TechRadar, Notebookcheck and Expert Reviews, Consumer Reports' tested-models list, and UK retailer listings. Prices were checked in October 2026 and can change week to week.
