The answer
Unitree G1
The default humanoid of the moment, and the only full-featured machine that a well-funded individual can order without a procurement department. It walks, runs, gets up off the floor and has more third-party code written for it than anything else on this list. The catch is the configuration ladder: the $13,500 machine cannot run your own code, and the version that can starts at $43,900.
- Buy it if
- Labs, universities and serious builders who want the platform everybody else is already using.
- Skip it if

In its favour

- Height
- 132 cm
- Weight
- 35 kg
- Joints
- 23 degrees of freedom
- Autonomy
- Partly teleoperated
