WHICHBOT SCORE	7 / 10	7.8 / 10
OUR TAKE	The first full-size humanoid built to be looked at rather than put to work. Fabric-wrapped, 27 degrees of freedom, and a motion stack that does runway walks and full splits. It will not do a single chore.	Unitree’s flagship. Full-size, considerably more capable than the G1, and priced for institutions and serious developers rather than hobbyists.

Detailed comparison: Luna vs H2

Luna scores 7/10 in our independent evaluation; H2 scores 7.8/10. That 0.7999999999999998-point gap is real but not decisive — Luna may still be the right fit depending on your use case.

Luna is best for: Malls, theme parks, trade shows and brand activations that need a crowd to stop walking. 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. Luna and H2 are both worth evaluating — the right call depends on which robot's documented strengths match your actual workflow.

WHICHBOT VERDICT

For most buyers we give the nod to H2 thanks to a lower estimated price and the fact you can actually get it today. But it's closer than the score suggests: Luna wins if your priority is malls, theme parks, trade shows and brand activations that need a crowd to stop walking.
