Astribot S1 vs Figure 03

Astribot S1 is a China-built wheeled humanoid upper-body robot with official specs of 170 cm, 80 kg, 5 kg per-arm payload, end-effector speed >=10 m/s, acceleration about 100 m/s^2, repeatability +/-0.1 mm, and 4-6 hours runtime. It uses cable-driven arms and is sold B2B by quote, with no public price. BigGo Finance reports a 15 billion yuan valuation, 10,000-unit S and T production capacity, and customers including Golden Horse, ThunderSoft, JD.com, and Robot MART stores across six Chinese cities. Secondary reviews describe cooking, food prep, cleaning, calligraphy, and other demos, and report Astribot Suite task success rates of 80-100 percent. Autonomy is claimed but not independently audited, S1 has no bipedal walking speed, and no S1-specific deployment output metrics are published

Figure 03 is Figure AI's current third-generation biped humanoid (5'8", 61 kg, 20 kg payload, 5 h listed runtime, 1.2 m/s) with tactile fingertips, palm cameras and wireless foot charging. Its strongest evidence is a public package-sorting livestream that Figure reports ran 200 hours with 249,560 packages and near-human per-package speed, plus a BMW-confirmed logistics sequencing use case at Spartanburg. Household and dexterity demos (dishwasher, pills, syringe, 56% zero-shot success in 30 homes) are company-published. Autonomy is asserted but not independently audited, BMW has published no Figure 03 output metrics, and the robot is not for sale
