G1 vs Figure 03: which robot wins?

Unitree's G1 against Figure AI's Figure 03 — price, capability, availability, and a verdict you can act on.

	G1	Figure 03

DEXTERITY	23–43 DOF depending on config	High-dexterity hands (Helix AI)
AVAILABILITY	Buy today	Commercial only
WHICHBOT SCORE	7.2 / 10	8.7 / 10
OUR TAKE	The cheapest way to own a real humanoid right now. Smaller and more of a developer platform than a housekeeper - but it ships.	Arguably the most capable hands in the business - processing hundreds of thousands of packages. Consumers can't buy it. Yet.

Detailed comparison: G1 vs Figure 03

G1 scores 7.2/10 in our independent evaluation; Figure 03 scores 8.7/10. That 1.4999999999999991-point gap is real but not decisive — G1 may still be the right fit depending on your use case.

G1 is best for: Tinkerers, developers, and early adopters who want hardware in hand now. Figure 03 is best for: Businesses - and consumers watching where home capability will come from next.

Our scoring weighs five factors: autonomous capability, independent verification (third-party evidence scores higher than manufacturer claims), commercial deployment scale, price-to-capability ratio, and real-world availability today. Neither robot here is scored on marketing alone. G1 and Figure 03 are both worth evaluating — the right call depends on which robot's documented strengths match your actual workflow.

WHICHBOT VERDICT

If you're a consumer, this one decides itself: G1 is the only one of the two you can realistically get — Figure 03 is commercial-only. Figure 03 may score higher on raw capability, but a robot you can't buy scores zero in your living room.
