Unitree’s official product page provides a specification comparison for G1 and G1 EDU. These are manufacturer-published specifications, not evidence that a robot can perform any particular commercial task without additional development.

Quick answer

Evaluate it as a robotics platform, not a ready-to-deploy replacement for staff. Confirm the configuration and development access before ordering.

Supplier-stated claims

G1: 23 degrees of freedom, approximately 35 kg with battery, standing dimensions 1320 × 450 × 200 mm, depth camera and 3D LiDAR. G1 EDU offers different configuration/development options.

Important unknowns

Exact included capabilities, application readiness, software access, integration cost, local service coverage and destination approval need confirmation. Promotional demonstrations do not establish delivered capability.

Questions a buyer should ask

Which configuration permits secondary development? What software and support are included? Can the seller demonstrate my intended task using the delivered configuration? What safety controls, training and local service are required?

What the official specification tells you

The standard G1 is listed with 23 degrees of freedom and a weight of about 35 kg including its battery. The official comparison distinguishes it from G1 EDU, which has additional configuration and development options.

Where the opportunity may be

Possible evaluation audiences include robotics education and development teams. Suitability for a particular workplace requires a task-specific demonstration and safety review; a promotional video is not acceptance testing.

The important buying distinction

Do not assume the lowest advertised price includes the hands, computing modules or development access shown in demonstrations. Obtain a configuration-level quotation.

Before making a commitment

Ask for a demonstration of the intended task, included software, support boundaries, spare parts, training and shipping terms. Unitree cautions users to maintain a safe distance and notes that some demonstrated functions remain under development.

Supplier, contacts and location

Supplier: Unitree Robotics.

Published address: 3rd Floor, Building 1, Fengda Creative Park, No. 88 Dongliu Road, Binjiang District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.

Address status: Headquarters; factory location not established. Address/contact source.

Website: Official source.

Published contact email: sales_global@unitree.com.

Published telephone: +86 17621781139.

Official international sales contact. Confirm whether the quotation is for G1 or G1 EDU and which developer access, hands and accessories are included.

Buyer fit and product evaluation

The strongest initial fit is robotics laboratories, education and supervised developer evaluation. A demonstration video does not establish safe autonomous operation or a production-ready workforce replacement. Request a supported-task demonstration, SDK access, maintenance terms and collision-risk controls. Budget for supervision, integration and spare parts in addition to the robot price.

Get a usable sourcing quotation

Request the exact model or configuration, quantities, MOQ, sample price, production lead time, packaging, branding permission, warranty and quotation validity. Ask the supplier to identify the legal seller, beneficiary bank account and production location. Do not assume that the brand headquarters is the factory or that a company contact offers this product for wholesale.

Compare the total delivered cost: product and accessories + packaging + testing and inspection + freight and insurance + destination taxes and fees + expected returns and service costs. A public retail price is a benchmark, not an OEM quote. Start with a sample and a written acceptance checklist before a volume commitment.

Evidence and next step

Contact and product links were reviewed on 7 October 2026. Supplier statements are not an independent factory audit, certificate validation or commercial guarantee. Ask for model-specific supporting documents and a written quotation, then verify the details that matter to your destination and use case.
