Detailed comparison: H1 vs H2
H1 scores 7.9/10 in our independent evaluation; H2 scores 7.8/10. That 0.10000000000000053-point gap reflects real differences in capability or value, but H2 may still win if its strengths match your priorities.
H1 is best for: Labs, universities, and serious developers who want full-size hardware now. H2 is best for: Research labs, universities and companies who need a full-size platform and have outgrown the G1.
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. H1 and H2 are both worth evaluating — the right call depends on which robot's documented strengths match your actual workflow.
