The humanoid robot market has matured enough that you can now buy a full-sized bipedal robot for under $15,000. The Unitree G1 leads the budget segment at $13,500, while industrial platforms like the Sanctuary Phoenix command $250,000+. Below is every humanoid robot with a known price, sorted from cheapest to most expensive — with full specs, availability status, and use case guidance.
| # | ROBOT | MANUFACTURER | PRICE | HEIGHT | DOF | STATUS |

If you want to buy a humanoid robot today, the Unitree G1 at $13,500 is the clear entry point — it is the most widely deployed budget humanoid, with strong community support and an open SDK. For commercial applications, the Apptronik Apollo offers the best value with its $499/month lease option, making humanoid robots accessible without six-figure capital expenditure. Tesla's target price of $20,000-$30,000 for Optimus would be transformative if achieved at scale, but external sales have not yet begun. The market is bifurcating: research/education platforms under $20K, and industrial platforms above $100K. The $20K-$100K mid-range — where mass-market commercial deployment will happen — is where Tesla, Apptronik, and Chinese manufacturers are competing hardest.
