Our take
This is a research-flagship face-off, and neither is a normal purchase. Boston Dynamics' all-electric Atlas has the more imposing spec — 1.9 m, 90 kg, 56 verified joints — but it is announced-only, offered to select early adopters and pilots (a version is slated for Hyundai's plant by 2028), with no public price. You cannot order one. Unitree's H1 is actually delivered, but on enterprise terms: a 1.8 m, 47 kg full-size humanoid with an 18-joint base, known for record-setting walking speed, sold contact-sales by quote rather than direct checkout. Its price is unsettled — US distributors have listed roughly $96,000–$99,900, but the figures are inconsistent, so we record no single MSRP. If you want a full-size humanoid you can realistically obtain today, the H1 is the reachable one; Atlas is a showcase of what is coming, not something on sale. For most buyers this comes down to availability, not spec sheets.
