AEG Roomovi: 9.5 kg lighter than the Midea Portasplit – Market launch 2027

TVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents AEG Roomovi: 9.5 kg lighter than the Midea Portasplit – Market launch 2027.

A new mobile air conditioner from AEG targets the Midea Portasplit directly: The AEG Roomovi is set to launch in 2027 according to Golem, taking on the established model that has so far been considered the go-to mobile air conditioner without a permanently installed outdoor unit.

Tenants know the dilemma: a traditional split system is often blocked by landlords who won't tolerate an outdoor unit on the facade or balcony railing. Mobile monoblocks are the obvious answer – but they have to be carried through the apartment, sealed at the window, and stowed away again come winter. With units like these, every kilo counts, and that's exactly where the AEG Roomovi comes in.

Why the weight difference matters

According to Golem, the indoor unit of the AEG Roomovi weighs 9.5 kg less than that of the Midea Portasplit. In this class, the indoor unit houses the actual cooling compressor along with the heat exchanger – it's usually the heaviest item you haul up the stairwell. 9.5 kg less is a tangible argument for anyone who regularly moves the unit from the bedroom to the home office or up to another floor.

What's still missing

That's about all that's known at editorial deadline. Golem files the piece under "Heat pump, Energy & Climate" – but doesn't name the price, cooling capacity, or energy efficiency class of the AEG Roomovi. The question of whether it manages without an outdoor unit, just like the Portasplit, also can't be settled conclusively from the report so far. The headline's direct comparison with the Portasplit, however, suggests it does.

What this means for you

Anyone looking for a mobile air conditioner without an outdoor unit right now has the Midea Portasplit and its derivatives as a proven option – available to buy, but heavy. With the AEG Roomovi, a significantly lighter alternative is shaping up for 2027, provided price, noise level, and cooling capacity hold up. Until then, it's worth following further coverage before a pre-order makes sense.
