Both robots run dual spinning mop pads, LiDAR plus camera navigation, and self-emptying docks, so the decision comes down to details. The Mova P50 Pro Ultra maps up to four floors, automatically detaches its mop pads before hitting carpet, and adds an LED to help its obstacle avoidance see in the dark. The Ecovacs DEEBOT T50 Max Pro Omni counters with a bigger battery, anti-tangle brush hardware, a taller 18 mm mop lift, auto air drying in the dock, and a much lower asking price.
Two mid-range omni-style robots, nearly identical on paper in the ways that usually matter, and one of them costs less than half of what the other does. That's the setup here. The Ecovacs DEEBOT T50 Max Pro Omni and Mova P50 Pro Ultra both scrub with dual spinning mop pads, both navigate with LiDAR and a camera, and both empty themselves into a dock. So the real decision lives in the smaller stuff: how many floors you need mapped, whether pet hair wraps around your brush, how high the mop lifts off carpet, and how much you're willing to spend to get a few extra automations.

out of 10Mova P50 Pro Ultra
These two rate close together overall, 8.5 against 8.7, which puts them in the same tier. Cleaning is essentially a wash at 7.6 and 7.5. The Mova pulls ahead on navigation, 8.1 to 7.4, thanks to four-floor mapping and the LED-assisted obstacle system. It also rates higher on value at 9.3, though that reflects what it delivers rather than what it costs. Features land dead even at 9.5 each, which tells you both docks are loaded.
Start with mopping mechanics. Both use dual spinning pads, but the Ecovacs lifts them 18 mm off the floor versus 10.5 mm on the Mova, and the Mova can automatically detach its pads entirely before vacuuming carpet. That's two different answers to the same problem. Battery hardware favors the Ecovacs at 6,400 mAh against 5,200 mAh, and its brush combines rubber and bristle with anti-tangle hardware, useful if long hair is a regular issue. The Mova takes navigation with four-level mapping (double the Ecovacs) and an LED that helps its camera spot obstacles in dim rooms. Suction sits close at 19,000 Pa versus 18,500 Pa. And the Ecovacs dries its mop pads with air after washing.
The Mova edges ahead with 19,000 Pa versus 18,500 Pa and a slightly roomier 300 mL onboard dustbin, but 500 Pa is not something you'll notice on your floors. The Ecovacs answers with a combination rubber and bristle brush plus anti-tangle hardware, which matters more day to day than the suction gap.
Both scrub with dual spinning pads, the strongest of the common mopping setups, and the Mova spins its at 180 RPM with 32 water levels to dial in. The Ecovacs takes this category on the strength of its 18 mm mop lift, well above the Mova's 10.5 mm, and auto air drying in the dock to keep pads from smelling between runs.
The Mova's 19,000 Pa and 3.2 L dust bag give it a small edge for shedding households. That said, the Ecovacs brings anti-tangle hardware on its brush, which is the feature that keeps you from cutting hair off a roller with scissors every couple of weeks.
Both use LiDAR mapping alongside AI, camera, and 3D structured light obstacle detection, so socks and cables get avoided either way. The Mova adds an LED to help its camera work in dark rooms and maps up to four floors against the Ecovacs' two, which decides this one for larger or taller homes.
Both docks empty the robot automatically and wash the mop pads, so the daily routine is similar. The Mova holds slightly more debris in its dust bag at 3.2 L, though the Ecovacs dock adds air drying for the mop pads after each wash.
The Ecovacs packs 6,400 mAh against the Mova's 5,200 mAh, roughly 23% more capacity. On larger single-floor layouts that means fewer trips back to the dock mid-clean.
Dead even here. Both offer built-in voice control plus Alexa and Google support (the Mova adds Siri), and both handle no-go zones, multi-level maps, and smart obstacle avoidance through their apps.

Neither of these will disappoint you. The Ecovacs delivers nearly the same feature set for a fraction of the outlay, with better battery capacity and anti-tangle hardware. The Mova earns its premium through four-floor mapping, auto-detaching mop pads, and sharper obstacle handling in low light. Match the extras to your actual home.
