## Price

- **$13,500** (actual-sale-price, one-time; as of 2026-06-17)
- **$13,500** (actual-sale-price, one-time; as of 2026-05-29) · [https://shop.unitree.com/products/unitree-g1](https://shop.unitree.com/products/unitree-g1) · 2026-05-29

The price above is a verified actual sale price from Unitree, not a projection. The G1 is sold as a research and developer platform, not a consumer home robot: buyers are labs, universities, and developers. Higher-spec configurations cost more.

## Availability

_Status: waitlist_

The G1 is ordered through Unitree on a waitlist basis. It ships as developer and research hardware, not as a consumer home appliance.

## Status

The G1 is a research and developer platform. Its demonstrated work (locomotion, manipulation, the open-sourced UnifoLM-VLA-0 model) targets developers and labs, not turnkey consumer-home use; capability for specific household tasks is not claimed at consumer-deployment scale.

## Who is the G1 for?

The G1 is a developer and research platform you can actually buy, which sets it apart from the consumer-home, enterprise-deployed, and consumer-promised humanoids: it is purchasable today, but as lab and developer hardware rather than a finished consumer product. If you want a robot that does household tasks out of the box, the G1 is not that.
