Which humanoid robots can you actually buy in 2026

The short answer: yes, you can buy a humanoid robot in 2026, but probably not the one in the news. The robots with a listed price start at $4,900, for Unitree's R1 Air, and the cheapest of them are compact research, education and developer robots. The famous names are another matter: Figure 03 is sold to businesses under contract, Atlas is reserved for selected customers, NEO is a pre-order and Optimus is not for sale.

This guide sorts every model Domobot tracks by how you can actually get one, with the price the maker or a store shows; a figure reported only by the press is marked as such. The figures come from our model sheets, last verified on 29 September 2026; each sheet lists its sources.

Listed with a price you can order

These are on sale through the maker's store, a marketplace or the maker's sales team, and the maker or a store has given a price.

• Unitree R1: from $4,900 for the R1 Air and $5,900 for the standard R1, excluding taxes and delivery; Unitree states shipping at $300 to $1,200. The R1 EDU is on quote. Sold in Unitree's official store with international shipping, and on AliExpress in North America, Europe, Japan and Singapore since April 2026. A compact 1.23 m robot for developers, education and entertainment.
• Unitree G1: $13,500 for the base G1, excluding taxes and delivery. The store showed it temporarily out of stock at our last check. The base version is not programmable: development requires the G1 EDU, on quote.
• Unitree H1: $90,000 on the official store, which still invites buyers to contact Unitree for the actual price. A full-size research robot of about 1.80 m.
• Noetix N2: from 39,900 CNY, the launch price Noetix stated in March 2025, listed on JD.com in China since April 2025 and not re-verified for 2026. A 114 cm robot for education, research and shows.
• LimX Oli: from 158,000 CNY, the entry price LimX stated at launch in July 2025. It can be ordered from LimX or from distributors, including in the United States, who sell on quote.
• EngineAI PM01: 188,000 CNY for the Education Edition on EngineAI's JD.com store in April 2025, not re-verified for 2026. A 1.40 m robot open to developers.
• Kepler Forerunner K2 Bumblebee: 248,000 CNY, the unit price Kepler stated on 26 September 2025, version not specified, for business buyers. An industrial biped for factories and logistics.
• Galbot G1: 699,900 CNY before subsidy, in a one-off consumer sale on JD.com in February 2026. Galbot otherwise sells this wheeled robot to businesses on terms it does not publish.
• AgiBot A2: the simplified A2 Lite, without AI perception or dexterous hands, is listed at $44,560 on AgiBot's official store, excluding taxes, duties and delivery. The A2 itself has no public price, and the A2 Ultra is on quote.

Sold to businesses on quote or under contract

These robots are on the market, but there is no price to pay online: expect a sales process, and often a contract.

• Digit (Agility Robotics): offered to businesses on quote, notably as a "Robots-as-a-Service" rental, and deployed at industrial customers in North America, including GXO. Its successor, Digit 5, is expected in early access in the first half of 2027.
• Figure 03 (Figure AI): sold to businesses under private contract and deployed in logistics at BMW in Spartanburg since June 2026. Home use has been demonstrated, not brought to market.
• UBTECH Walker S2: sold only under business contract. UBTech has delivered it to industrial companies since November 2025.
• Booster T1 (Booster Robotics): sold through sales inquiry and resellers, including in Europe. Tencent News cited about 199,000 CNY for the base version in March 2025, a figure Booster has not confirmed. Since July 2026, Booster's site has featured the T2 and the K1, though the T1 page remains online.
• PNDbotics Adam: bought from the maker, with no public price; New Atlas cited $100,000 for the Adam SP in July 2025, unconfirmed. PNDbotics says it exports the range to Europe, the Americas, Japan and Korea.

On pre-order or reservation

• NEO (1X Technologies): $20,000 for "Early Access" ownership with priority delivery in 2026 in the United States, or $499 a month by subscription; 1X also lists a refundable $200 deposit. As of 29 September 2026, 1X had not announced a customer delivery; robots from its factory go to internal testing first.
• 4NE1 (NEURA Robotics): €98,000 per unit for 1 to 19 units of the 4NE1 Gen 3.5 and €60,000 per unit from 20 units, excluding taxes and delivery, with a refundable €100 reservation. NEURA expects availability at the end of 2026. The smaller 4NE1 Mini (1.32 m, from €19,999 excluding tax) can be reserved separately.
• Atlas (Boston Dynamics): for businesses, with no public price. All 2026 units are reserved for Hyundai and Google DeepMind; other customers are expected from early 2027.
• Fourier GR-3: presale opened in China on 8 September 2025, with deliveries announced from October 2025, but we have found no confirmed delivery. Fourier has not published a price; TMTPost reported more than 200,000 yuan.

Announced, but not for sale

• Optimus (Tesla): no sales or external customers announced. Tesla said in July 2026 that its first Fremont lines were being installed and that the first robots would be used for internal data collection. Elon Musk's $20,000 to $30,000 is a target at scale, not a list price.
• XPENG IRON: the first unit came off XPENG's production line in September 2026. XPENG plans a commercial launch in China and internationally in 2027 and has not announced a price.
• Apollo (Apptronik): Apollo 2 runs in fleets at partners under contract; the commercial product, Apollo 3, has no official date.
• MenteeBot (Mentee by Mobileye): pilot deployments at customers are planned for 2026, with series production and commercialisation targeted for 2028.

Prototypes, not for sale

• Phoenix (Sanctuary AI): a development platform that Sanctuary does not sell as a product.
• Xiaomi CyberOne: presented in August 2022 and never brought to market. A second generation shown in August 2026 is still a prototype, with no sale planned.

Before you order

• Check what the price covers. Several prices above exclude taxes, duties or delivery, and Unitree states shipping at $300 to $1,200 for the G1 and the R1.
• Check what you can program. The base G1 is not programmable, and on the R1 secondary development needs the R1 EDU, on quote.
• Check the hands. The base G1, the R1 Air and the R1 have no dexterous hands, and the H1 has no hands as standard.
• Check the runtime. Unitree states about 1 hour for the R1 and about 2 hours for the G1, and Noetix states 1 to 2 hours for the N2; all three have swappable batteries.
• Get the delivery date in writing. For NEO, no customer delivery had been announced as of 29 September 2026, and for the GR-3 we have found no confirmed delivery.

How we checked

Every price, date and figure here comes from Domobot's model sheets, last verified on 29 September 2026. Each sheet links its sources for each figure: the makers' pages and stores, marketplace listings and press reports. A model appears under "Listed with a price you can order" only when the maker or a store gave a price; a price reported only by the press does not count.
