caveats

Unitree also sells a different product, the R1-D, from $4,290 on its shop; it is not the R1 and is not included here. The R1 EDU price differs between unitree.com ('Contact Sales') and the shop ($10,500). Dealer EDU Pro prices depend on the hand option. Shop page lists the R1 at about 29 kg and 123 cm, while launch coverage said 25 kg and 121 cm.
