What actually separates them
Neither mower has all-wheel drive, and neither needs a boundary wire. Both support multiple zones. The real differences are navigation, slope, noise and price.

On robot lawn mowers the M5 is 3rd with 60 points and the V3 is 24th with 50. On robot mowers under 1000 the M5 is 4th with 75 and the V3 is 8th with 64. On robot mowers under 1500 it is 5th with 64 against 14th with 54. The two are tied for 1st with 77 on quiet robot mowers.

Which to buy
Pick the M5 if you can place an RTK antenna with a clear sky view and want the lower price, steeper slopes and longer warranty.
Pick the V3 if you do not want an antenna, want the quieter 55 dB machine or have a slightly larger lawn. Its rated area is only a little larger, so do not pay the higher price for that alone. Read robot mowers without a boundary wire if you are unsure how each one finds its way.
