The New Segway X4 Is Impressive... But Not Perfect (Robot Mower Review)

I've been running robot mowers for years, including the Navimow I series and the Luba 2, but now it's time to see what the new Segway Navimow X4 can do. In this video, I share my first impressions after putting the X4 to work around the Holmes Hobby House. The cutting performance is excellent, it handles rough terrain surprisingly well, and the hardware feels like a major step forward. That said, no mower is perfect. The X4 is currently a little too cautious in some situations, and I'm still working through a few connectivity issues and setup quirks. Hopefully future software updates will help unlock even more of its potential. Overall, though, I'm impressed. The X4 has a lot going for it, and it may become one of my favorite robot mowers yet. If you own a robot mower, I'd love to hear what you're using and how it's working for you. 👉 Follow for more RC crawling, tech, and real-world testing: Youtube:    / holmeshobbies   Website: https://HolmesHobbies.com/ 2nd Channel:    / johnrobholmes   Segway X4, Segway Navimow X4, Robot Mower, Robotic Lawn Mower, Luba 2, Mammotion Luba 2, Navimow Review, Robot Lawn Care, Autonomous Mower, GPS Robot Mower, RTK Mower, Smart Lawn Care, Lawn Technology, Lawn Robot, Segway Navimow, Robot Mower Review, Rural Property Mowing, Large Yard Mower, Lawn Automation #SegwayX4 #Navimow #RobotMower #LawnCare #SmartHome #LawnTech #AutonomousMower #Mammotion #Luba2 #Segway #RoboticMower #Technology #Gardening #OutdoorLiving #holmeshobbies 0:00 Navimow X4 Review: The Good, The Bad & The Frustrating 0:25 Why I Upgraded From the Luba 2 1:13 The Biggest Advantage: No More Tank Turns 1:39 Issue #1: Too Afraid of Tall Grass 2:40 Issue #2: NRTK Connectivity Problems 4:18 Comparing the Navimow X4 vs Luba 2 5:55 When It Mows, It Mows Really Well 7:13 Object Detection: Smart or Too Smart? 8:46 Ground Clearance & Strange Navigation Choices 11:27 Firmware Problems or Learning Curve? 12:27 What's User Error vs What's a Real Problem? 14:22 My Biggest Complaint With the X4 15:08 Why I'm Still a Fan of Robot Mowers 16:13 Who Should Buy the Navimow X4? 16:46 Channel Navigation Test 17:45 Final Thoughts After Two Weeks 19:12 Live Connection Loss Demonstration 19:33 Suspension, Articulation & Blades
