Editor's notes

The widely quoted $16,000 launch price (2024) is no longer on the official page, which now says 'from $13.5K'. Payload = arm max load (about 2 kg base, 3 kg EDU). The official page also links G1+ and G1-D (wheeled) variants without specs. SDK is documented for EDU only ('secondary development manual'); language bindings not confirmed. The www.unitree.com/g1 URL was blocked by the fetch permission gate; unitree.com/g1/ (no www) was fetched.
