## Price

- **$29,900** (actual-sale-price, one-time; as of 2026-01-01) · [Unitree Robotics (H2)](https://www.unitree.com/H2) · 2026-01-01

The $29,900 above is a verified, openly-published price, China-direct (ex-customs). It is one of the few Chinese humanoids with a real consumer price rather than research-only or industrial-only availability. Note: this is a China-direct ex-customs price, not a US landed price.

## Availability

_Status: shipping-now_

The Unitree H2 is for sale at a published price (China-direct). DEPLOY records commercial maturity (for-sale), not production: there is no verified fleet-scale deployment. From Unitree Robotics (Hangzhou).

## Status

The Unitree H2 is a full-size humanoid, the successor to the H1, and one of the rare Chinese humanoids with a verified published consumer price ($29,900, China-direct). It has 31 degrees of freedom (up from the H1's 27): a new 3-DoF waist, 7-DoF arms, a quasi-serial leg/foot redesign, and a bio-inspired animated face. It is about 1.82m and 70kg, with a ~3-hour battery, Intel Core i5/i7 base compute (an EDU variant offers NVIDIA Jetson), and walks under 2 m/s, down from the H1's ~3.3, trading speed for dexterity. The verified-vs-claimed point is the autonomy posture: H2's marquee dance, boxing, and gala demos are choreographed or teleoperated (via control rig or Apple Vision Pro), NOT verified-autonomous. Autonomy is the goal, not the present state.
