Overview

Unitree H2 is a full-size humanoid robot from Unitree Robotics of Hangzhou, China and the successor to the H1, unveiled in October 2025 and listed for sale on Unitree's official store at 29,900 dollars, with a separate EDU developer variant sold via contact-sales and dealer shipping to North America in the second quarter of 2026. It is a genuine hardware step over the H1 rather than a re-skin: 31 degrees of freedom, up from 27, with a new three-degree-of-freedom waist, seven-degree-of-freedom arms up from four, a quasi-serial leg and foot redesign, a G1 and R1 aligned hip configuration, and a bio-inspired animated face new to the H-series. It stands about 1.82 meters and weighs around 70 kilograms with battery, rates roughly seven kilograms of arm payload, runs about three hours per charge on an Intel Core i5 or i7 compute base while the EDU variant offers an NVIDIA Jetson option, and walks at under two meters per second, trading the H1's higher top speed for dexterity and bionics. The registry records it at commercial maturity because it is an openly purchasable product with a published price and stated second-quarter 2026 shipping, while noting it is not deployed at fleet scale. Critically, Unitree's marquee H2 demonstrations, including dance, boxing, martial arts, a runway walk, and a 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala appearance, are choreographed or teleoperated rather than verified autonomous task execution: teleoperation via a control rig or Apple Vision Pro is Unitree's stated bridge technology and autonomy is a goal rather than the present state, so the H2 is recorded as a capable motion and hardware platform without asserting autonomous task capability.

Notes

Distinctness vs H1 (warrants a separate model): Genuine hardware step over H1, not a re-skin: 31 DoF vs 27, new 3-DoF waist, 7-DoF arms vs 4, quasi-serial legs, animated face. Distinct registry model from unitree-h1 and unitree-g1., Maturity = commercial (cap-flag): Openly purchasable on Unitree's own storefront with a published price ($29,900 China-direct) and stated Q2 2026 dealer shipping; Unitree already sells G1/H1 commercially. NOT 'production' in the fleet/at-scale sense - no large operational deployments; sales are unit purchases to researchers/integrators., AI / autonomy (cap-flag - the cohort's editorial point): The marquee H2 demos (dance, boxing, martial arts, runway walk, 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala) are choreographed and/or TELEOPERATED, NOT verified-autonomous task execution. Teleoperation (control rig or Apple Vision Pro) is Unitree's stated bridge technology; autonomy is the goal, not the present state. The official page ships a manual controller + OTA-updatable motion-control but does NOT claim general task autonomy. Record as a capable motion/hardware platform; do NOT assert autonomous task capability (manufacturer capability language = claimed input)., Spec cap-flags (aggregator drift): $29,900 is the China-direct, ex-customs price (dealer/EDU figures e.g. ~$68,900 are reseller-set, not Unitree's published price). The '2070 TOPS' figure is the OPTIONAL NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor on the EDU variant, not the base config. Unveiling (Oct 2025), dealer shipping (Q2 2026), and the Gala appearance (Feb 2026) are distinct dates that aggregators conflate.
