About the book →The Unitree G1 is a compact bipedal humanoid built for research, education and content work. It stands about 1.27 m, weighs roughly 35 kg with its quick-release battery, and ships with 23 degrees of freedom — rising to 43 once dexterous hands and the upgraded waist and arms are fitted.
Every G1 in the range is the same core platform. What changes across configurations is compute, degrees of freedom, and which hands are on the end of the arms — which is why the price spans a wide band.
RobotLAB supplies the full Unitree humanoid range in the United States, with 23 G1 configurations currently listed, from $17,990 to $83,900. Every configuration below is quoted, supported and serviced from the US.

The table below is the honest version of the spec sheet: it shows only what actually differs between configurations, so you can see what the extra money buys. Shared platform specifications are listed separately — they apply to every unit in the range.
Typical buyers are university robotics labs, AI research groups and media production teams. If you are not sure which build fits your work, ask us: we configure these for US customers every week and will tell you when a cheaper configuration does the job.
See the rest of the range on our humanoid robots page, or browse everything we carry from Unitree.
Most configurations differ only by the hand fitted. If you want to compare end effectors on their own, see Unitree humanoid hands and grippers.

Prices are US MSRP and exclude tax, duty and freight. Configurations, lead times and specifications are subject to change by the manufacturer.
Most of the price difference between the configurations above is the end effector. This is what the force-controlled hands buy you.

The Unitree G1 is a compact bipedal humanoid robot designed for research, development, and education. It is aimed at university labs, embodied-AI and manipulation researchers, and STEM programs that want a real humanoid platform — full leg, arm, and waist articulation with LiDAR and depth sensing — without the six-figure cost of a full-size humanoid.
The G1 stands about 1.32 m tall and weighs roughly 35 kg with battery. It has 23 degrees of freedom standard (6 per leg, 5 per arm, 1 waist), expandable to as many as 43 DOF on EDU configurations with optional waist, wrist, and the three-fingered Dex3-1 dexterous hand. It carries a depth camera and 3D LiDAR, an 8-core CPU with optional high-performance compute, a quick-release 9000 mAh battery good for about 2 hours, and an arm payload around 2-3 kg.
RobotLAB lists 23 G1 configurations, from $17,990 to $83,900, depending on compute, degrees of freedom and which dexterous hands are fitted. Unitree's bare base unit starts lower (around $13.5K-$16K) but does not include secondary-development access or manipulation hardware. RobotLAB sells, leases, deploys, trains, and services the G1 nationwide — call 1-87-ROBOTLAB to configure a unit, get a quote, or arrange financing.
The H1 and H2 are full-size humanoids (around 1.8 m, 47-70 kg) built for higher-speed locomotion and heavier payloads — the H1 holds a 3.3 m/s walking record and the H2 adds a 31-DOF body with 7-DOF arms. The G1 is smaller, lighter, and more affordable, making it better suited to bench-scale R&D, classrooms, and teams that need a humanoid they can transport and iterate on quickly. Choose the H-series for full-size dynamics; choose the G1 for accessible, foldable humanoid research.
The Pudu D9 is a full-size humanoid (1.7 m, 65 kg) aimed at commercial object manipulation and customer engagement, with 42 DOF, dual 7-DOF arms, an 11-DOF DH11 hand, and up to 20 kg payload. The G1 is a smaller, lower-cost research and education platform rather than a commercial service robot. Pick the D9 for heavy commercial manipulation; pick the G1 for affordable humanoid R&D and teaching.
Yes — the EDU/developer configurations (which this build reflects) support secondary development, so your team can run custom code on the robot. Unitree provides imitation- and reinforcement-learning workflows plus the UnifoLM unified robot model. Note that the bare standard version does not support secondary development, so confirm the EDU configuration when ordering through RobotLAB.
RobotLAB can arrange a demonstration and walk you through configurations, deployment, and training. Call 1-87-ROBOTLAB to schedule a demo or discuss a pilot for your lab or classroom.
The Unitree R1-A5 is a fixed-base dual-arm humanoid: 13 degrees of freedom (5 per arm, 1 waist, 2 head), roughly 11 kg, with a 420 mm arm reach and about 2 kg payload per arm. The R1-A5-D variant adds a wheeled chassis a
The Unitree R1-A7 is the seven-axis-per-arm member of the dual-arm range, trading the R1-A5s simpler arms for the extra redundancy that complex manipulation needs. A wheeled R1-A7-D variant is also available.

Every Unitree humanoid ships with a choice of end effector, and the hand is usually the single biggest factor in what a robot costs and what it can do. This page lists every hand and gripper in the 2026 range, what fits
