Galbot G1 is a 173 cm, 92.5 kg wheeled humanoid mobile manipulator from China with official specs: 5 kg per arm / 10 kg total payload, 8-hour lab runtime, 48 V 30 Ah battery, 1.5 m/s wheeled speed, 21 DoF excluding end effector, NVIDIA AGX Orin 64GB 275 TOPS, and IP54. Galbot claims full autonomy and scaled commercial deployment across retail, warehousing, healthcare, and industry. The strongest named deployment is a Beijing pharmacy that received a medicinal-distribution permit, making G1 the first certified robot pharmacy assistant; Galbot also reports 170+ Space Cabin kiosks and 24/7 warehouse operations. However, industrial partner names are orders not confirmed deployments, no official price or consumer channel exists, and on-the-ground reports show limited autonomy breadth with chip-bag grasp failures. G1 is wheeled, not legged, and no independent benchmark or intervention log is available

Unitree G1 is a current, publicly listed humanoid research platform with strong accessibility evidence and multiple real-hardware research papers. Its commercial deployment proof is weak, and base versus EDU configuration differences must not be merged
