A strong humanoid robot with real strengths
In our independent assessment, the Unitree G1 earns 80/100 — a very good humanoid robot.
Its strongest area is mobility (dof) (86/100), followed by battery life (82/100). In practice, most accessible humanoid price.
The main caveat is payload, where it scores 64/100. Specifically, developer-focused.
At €16000, it sits below the typical price for the category — strong value. A dependable pick if its strengths line up with your priorities.

Can I actually buy a humanoid robot?
A few research models (e.g. Unitree) ship today; most general-purpose humanoids are pre-order, enterprise-only or in development — check availability before buying.
What can humanoids do today?
Current models walk, balance, carry modest payloads and perform scripted or teleoperated tasks; fully autonomous household help is still emerging.
Do they come with an SDK?
Research-focused humanoids ship with an open SDK for programming and experiments; commercial units are typically locked to the vendor’s software.
