Editorial summaries
AgiBot Yuanzheng A2
The Yuanzheng A2 is the flagship full-size humanoid from AgiBot, an emerging Chinese manufacturer with commercial activity in China. No verified consumer price, availability, or delivery date is on record; the editorial position is honest-absence.
Unitree G1
The Unitree G1 is a research and developer humanoid platform at a sub-enterprise price point, sold into university labs, hardware-research groups, and individual developers rather than enterprise integration contracts. The category distinction matters: a G1 at a research bench is in its intended environment; treating G1 in active research use as commercial deployment overstates Unitree's commercial position relative to Apollo, Digit, or Atlas. Unitree describes G1's autonomy as developer-platform capability for capability research, with the published specs (degrees of freedom, payload, runtime) as the verifiable substance; commercial deployment hours at named customer sites are not yet part of G1's record.
