I went with the Ego last year and have been happy with it. Pretty good cut, bag or mulch, doesn't bog down too easily, folds up easily for storage, and is super light. Only one line of battery to worry about instead of 40/60/80V systems offered by Greenworks, so only a single charger interface too, which is nice. Makes it easy for people buying batteries as "gifts" or hacking deals on their other products.
Some people complain about the Ego being all plastic vs. Greenworks having steel decks, but for my purposes the weight reduction is a phenomenal benefit. IIRC, the comparable Greenworks with a steel deck was ~25lbs heavier than the Ego… I have some steep hills that I was doing with a 100+lbs gas mower and it took everything I had to keep that stupid thing on the hillside. Greenworks specs would have saved me about 15 pounds while the Ego saved me closer to 40: it's light enough I can literally hold it on the hillside with one hand and the self-propelled mode does all the work. That alone was worth the price of entry to me because it's much safer, and since I'm not mowing gravel, I don't expect the deck to chip/crack/break from abuse.
The other huge benefit is how quiet it is. You can run it right next to the bedroom window of a bear at 4am and you won't get eaten for waking it up.
