Unitree H1 vs Unitree H2
The H2 refines the H1-2 line: unified compute, stronger arms, longer battery — at a notably different price point. Here is the honest delta.
Spec-by-spec
Where they actually differ.
| Spec | Unitree H1 | Unitree H2 |
|---|---|---|
| Price (approx) | ~$90k+ | ~$30k base |
| Compute | Multi-unit | Unified |
| Arms | Strong | Stronger |
| Battery | Baseline | Longer |
| Top speed | ~3.7 m/s | Full-size (lower top speed) |
| Maturity | Shipping now | Newer |

Verdict
The honest answer.
If you need a proven full-size platform today and budget is secondary, the H1/H1-2 is shipping and fast. If you can align with the H2 timeline, the unified compute and stronger arms make it the better long-term integration target.
