- 240-minute charge in the manual, under 2 hours observed in testing
- Some specs still need stronger manufacturer or manual evidence.
Data & Reliability

- 1 official manual available
- consolidated external review synthesis
- 25 useful specs shown
- Confidence score: fair, a few specs still need confirming
Quick analysis
Well equipped for the money, and the only one in the range with both 4G and an anti-theft alarm. No test disputes its capacity, which Electrek and heise both put around 3,000 m2, but Notebookcheck warns that past 275 m2 the machine wants supervision rather than being forgotten. Judge it on how much time you plan to spend on it.
SpecsLib Calculated Metrics
These indicators are computed by SpecsLib from official manufacturer specs. They do not appear as such in any brand's documentation.
Area / Price23 sq ft/€
Square feet covered per euro spent. The higher the ratio, the better the area-to-price value.
Mowing density11,625 sq ft/hr
SpecsLib estimate (max area ÷ runtime), not published by the manufacturer: actual mowing time includes mapping, obstacle avoidance and recharging, so this figure likely overstates real-world throughput.
Slope score45/100 (Good)
Normalised score based on the declared maximum slope (45%). 100 = mechanical limit, 0 = flat ground.

This model's technologies, against the evidence
What the brand promises, what independent tests actually found, and the limit to plan around.
Anthbot QuadVision
Brand Promise
Four AI cameras covering 300°, more than 1,000 object types claimed, and mowing that carries on when the satellite signal degrades.
What testers found
Four tests describe the same split. heise, on the Genie 3000: people, dogs and cats recognised without fail, but around 50% detection on tennis balls. Notebookcheck, on the Genie 1000: most obstacles recognised, hedgehog dummy and garden hose included, and the tennis ball detected one time out of three. Labo Maison, on a Genie800 built on the same chassis: most obstacles detected, golf ball missed. PC-WELT confirms on the Genie 600 that mowing carries on when GPS drops, thanks to the cameras.
Watchout / Limitation
The 1,000 claimed types do not carry over to round, low objects. All three tests that put a ball on the lawn watched it get missed: pick up balls and small toys before mowing.

Anthbot RTK
Brand Promise
Full-band RTKRTKHigh-precision satellite correction, usually with a base station or antenna., 22 frequency bands as counted in testing, with a base station and automatic mappingMappingBuilding the map of the garden the mower uses to plan its passes. claimed in ten minutes, no boundary wireBoundary wireWire pinned or buried around the lawn, telling the mower where its zone ends..
What testers found
PC-WELT sited the station in a quarter of an hour on the Genie 600, indicator green after three minutes, and the automatic map worked first time on a lawn edged with kerbstones. Notebookcheck rates that mapping among the best it has tested, on the Genie 1000, but reports the same machine leaving its boundary by several centimetres more than once, up to stalling in a raised bed. heise could not get the Genie 3000 through the narrow passage between two lawns, which no RTK mower it had tested had managed either.
Watchout / Limitation
Unplug the RTK antenna and the app throws an error: the map has to be built again, heise checked. Neither heise nor Notebookcheck found any RTK signal quality readout in the app. Notebookcheck clears 70 cm gaps but sees the mower back away from 80 cm ones at times.

Anthbot Single-Disc 20 cm
Brand Promise
A single 20 cm disc with pivoting blades spinning at 3,000 rpm, for 900, 2,000 or 3,600 m2 depending on the battery fitted.
What testers found
Two tests measure the same uncut stripEdge cuttingHow close to a wall or an edge the mower cuts, measured in centimetres of grass left. along fixed boundaries: around 12 cm for heise on the Genie 3000, over 10 cm for Notebookcheck on the Genie 1000, a distance set by the gap between the housing and the blades. Coverage rates line up too: heise mowed 339 m2 in three and a half hours, slightly beyond the 200 minutes of runtime the manual states, Notebookcheck 330 m2 on the Genie 1000 before dropping to 7% battery. Noise, on the other hand, is not settled: Notebookcheck measured just under 60 dBNoise level (dB)Noise produced while running, in decibels, on a scale that is not linear. at one metre on the Genie 1000 and calls that machine relatively loud, but recorded 66.2 dB on the Genie 3000 while finding it quiet, with the drive louder than the cut, while Labo Maison recorded 51.32 dB(A) at one metre on a Genie800 built on the same chassis.
Watchout / Limitation
No edge automation, as heise points out: the finish stays manual. With a 20 cm cut and 10 to 12 cm left along boundaries, plan on several sessions a week and a strimmerSide trimmerString cutting head mounted on the side, mowing past the deck and up to the boundary.. And treat the runtime NeozOne reports with caution, 240 minutes against 200 in the manual: the same test gives 10.2 kg where the manual says 13 kg, which undermines its readings.

What the tests say
The Genie 3000 is Anthbot's large model: 10 Ah, a claimed 3,600 m2, 30 zones, 4G and an anti-theft alarm. Area is what to watch, because the tests do not agree. Three of them give a figure for one session: 339 m2 in 3.5 hours at heise, 450 to 500 m2 at Electrek, 520 m2 at Notebookcheck before the battery died. Mind what each figure measures: Notebookcheck does not dispute the capacity but the plug and play promise, which it only rates kept at around 275 m2 (about 3,000 sq ft) or less, given how much supervision is still needed beyond that. On capacity itself, Electrek aims at 3,000 m2 (about 0.75 acres) and heise calls the machine built for 3,000 m2 and up. Noise reads the same way: Anthbot advertises 58 dB at most, a figure TechRadar repeats in its spec table, while Notebookcheck measures 66.2 dB during mowing and still finds it quiet. Charging diverges too, 240 minutes in the manual against under two hours at Notebookcheck. The tests do agree on detection of people and pets, and two of them regret a too-short RTK station cable. TechRadar, NeozOne and Notebookcheck were each sent their unit by the brand, and NeozOne publishes no weakness at all.
