Unitree Robot Prices (2026): R1, G1, H2 and Go2 Buying Guide

As of August 6, 2026, Unitree's US-dollar store listings start at $1,600 for the quadruped Go2 and $4,290 for the contact-sales R1-D application platform. The R1 AIR is $4,900, the R1 is $5,900, the G1 is $13,500 and the H2 is $29,900. The store collection displays $100,000 for H2 Plus, although its purchase page routes buyers to sales; H1 likewise displays $90,000 while telling buyers to contact Unitree for the real price. A buyer therefore needs to separate a displayed number from a fixed offer and then add freight, tax, customs and the required development configuration.

The prices Unitree actually publishes

The official R1, G1, H1/H1-2, H2, H2 Plus and Go2 pages were checked against the official humanoid store collection on the same date. "Contact sales" does not mean free or unavailable; it means configuration, support and delivery terms require a quote.

The $4,290 figure on the R1-D store page is not a cheaper SKU of the R1 AIR. R1-D is an application platform sold as R1-A5, R1-A7 and D variants through sales contact. R1 AIR and R1 belong to the separate R1 product family, so their prices and specifications should not be mixed.

This guide covers the public consumer, education and research-oriented products most relevant to a first purchase, plus Go2. It is not a complete price list for industrial quadrupeds such as B2 or A2. For category-wide price types and deployment-cost comparisons, use the humanoid robot price guide.

Go2 is not simply a cheaper humanoid

Go2 is built around quadruped mobility, remote operation and mobile sensing. Its Air, Pro, X and EDU configurations vary in features and secondary-development access. R1, G1, H1/H1-2 and H2 are bipedal humanoids, where body size, arm and hand options, computing and control access drive a different buying decision.

For a smaller lab or a first humanoid experiment, R1 and G1 are the practical starting points to compare. A team that needs a full-size platform and a broader research configuration will more often evaluate H1/H1-2 or H2 EDU. That is an editorial buying path based on published size, price and development access—not an official ranking of model quality.

The robot price is only the first line of the budget

Unitree's price tables state that tax and shipping are excluded. Its official shipping policy says shipping is calculated at checkout and import duties are paid by the buyer. A currency conversion of the robot price alone is therefore not a reliable delivered-cost estimate.

On August 6, 2026, the official R1 store page and G1 store page displayed shipping ranges of $300–$1,200, while the Go2 store page displayed $399–$1,000. These figures depend on destination and logistics. Request separate lines for the robot, freight, duties and taxes, customs clearance and return freight. Also confirm whether batteries, controller, charger, dexterous hands and extra compute are included.

Developer access can determine the model you need

The official R1 and G1 store pages explicitly say that the base products do not support secondary development and direct custom-development buyers to EDU. The H2 table shows "/" for the base model and "YES" for H2 EDU under Secondary Development, so the base H2 should not be assumed to include development access. For purchasing, the exact SKU table and contract should take precedence over broad marketing language about open interfaces.

The H1/H1-2 page describes sensors and compute options but does not present one clear public purchase configuration. Ask Unitree to specify software access, documentation, SDK coverage, safety limits, hand options and support in writing. The same model name can cover materially different research capabilities.

What to settle before you request a quote

Write down the job first: mobility demo, manipulation research, perception, teaching or field inspection. Then state whether secondary development is required, list the hands, compute, batteries and controllers you need, identify the destination and importer, and ask for warranty scope, parts availability and an estimated ship date.

A humanoid is not a household appliance that can perform every demo task out of the box. Unitree itself warns that the industry remains at an early stage and that individual buyers should understand the limitations before purchasing. Budget for a controlled operating area, an emergency-stop procedure and trained supervision. Recheck the official product page and store immediately before payment; prices and stock can change.

Frequently asked questions

Can an individual buy a Unitree robot from the official store?

Some base configurations, including R1, G1 and Go2 variants, appear with online purchase options. Destination eligibility, shipping and customs requirements still vary, while EDU and some H-series configurations require sales contact. Confirm the delivered cost before paying.

Does the Unitree H1 cost $90,000?

The official store displays $90,000, but the same product page says to contact Unitree for the real price. Treat it as a reference display, not a binding price. H1-2 does not have a clear public fixed price on the checked official pages.

Can I develop on the cheapest R1, G1 or H2 configuration?

Do not assume so. The R1 and G1 store pages explicitly exclude secondary development from the base products, while the H2 table marks it YES only for EDU. If you need custom control, sensor data or model deployment, obtain the interfaces and software rights for the exact EDU or development SKU in writing.
