Home humanoid release tracker: what you can order, and when it ships

Last checked: October 29, 2026. We update this tracker monthly and again on January 3, 2027, before CES. The answer today: two humanoids are orderable in the US (Unitree R1 and G1), one chore robot takes deposits (1X NEO), and three are announcements with no price (Figure 03, Tesla Optimus, Sunday Memo).

We have not tested these robots. Everything here comes from spec sheets, FCC filings, company statements and owner reports. Company claims are labeled.

Which home humanoids can you order today?

Robot	Status	Price (seen Oct 29, 2026)	Ship-date claim	US availability	Remote operator?
Unitree R1	Orderable	$4,900 (R1 Air), $5,900 (R1), $10,500 (R1 EDU) on shop.unitree.com	Sold from stock; no lead time posted	Sold on Unitree's US-facing store; FCC grant 2A5PE-YUSHU010 (fccid.io mirror) dated June 22, 2026	Remote control and preset motions; no chore autonomy

1X NEO	Preorder	$20,000 to own or $499/mo, $200 refundable deposit, on 1x.tech/order	"US Deliveries start 2026" (company claim)	US first; other markets "starting in 2027" (1X, company claim)	Yes: Scheduled Expert Mode, where a 1X expert supervises remotely

Tesla Optimus	Company claim only (for homes)	No price	Outside deliveries "around the end of next year" (2027) to companies, per Musk on the Q3 2026 call	Not sold; home sales undated	Not published
Sunday Memo (wheeled)	Invite-only beta	No price; Sunday says one hand-built unit costs about $20,000 today and retail will be lower (company claim)	Beta "late 2026"; shipping at scale "2027-2028" (Sunday, company claim)	US beta; cities not stated	Sunday says no teleoperation in your home (company claim)

Has the 1X NEO actually shipped?

Not that anyone can show. The order page still reads "US Deliveries start 2026" on October 29, 2026, with the $499-a-month plan on "Standard Delivery" and the $20,000 purchase on "Priority Delivery." 1X's factory update says the Hayward, California plant is ramping toward 10,000 units a year and that "current NEOs coming off the line are being prioritized for our internal team." It also tells buyers: "Some of you will get your NEO this year, some will get them later."

We found no named customer with a NEO at home and no 1X announcement of customer shipments. If you place a deposit now, expect a 2027 delivery unless 1X posts a dated shipping update.

Spec sheet, all company claims from 1X: 5 ft 6 in, 66 lb, lifts 154 lb, carries 55 lb, 4-hour runtime, 22 dB. Our full breakdown is on the 1X NEO page.

How much does a home humanoid cost in 2026?

Real, payable prices start at $4,900 for the Unitree R1 Air and run to $20,000 for a NEO you own outright. Unitree's prices exclude tax, shipping and import duties; the R1 page lists shipping of $300 to $1,200. For subscription math, NEO's $499 a month adds up to $5,988 a year. Run your own numbers in the buy vs subscribe calculator.

Figure, Tesla and Sunday have not published prices. Any number you see for them is a guess or a spoken remark. Figure CEO Brett Adcock's "$500 or $600 a month" lease idea, reported by Forbes Middle East, is not an offer you can sign.

When will Tesla Optimus be available for homes?

Tesla has not given a home date. Its Q3 2026 update says Optimus production began on Fremont's high-volume lines and lists the line as "Early Ramp." On the call, Musk said the AI, design and reliability issues should be solved "around the end of next year," which is when Tesla expects to deliver Optimus "to companies outside of Tesla." He said early use will be heavy industry and round-the-clock work, and "as we scale production, of course, it would be something that people can buy for their home." He also said the AI5 chip should go into Optimus in "approximately April of next year." All of these are targets.

When can you get a Figure 03?

Figure has not opened orders. Its Figure 03 announcement from October 9, 2025 describes home features such as washable soft goods and 2 kW wireless charging through the feet, and a BotQ line "initially capable of producing up to 12,000 humanoid robots per year." Those are company claims. Figure lists no price, deposit or delivery date for homes.

What is Sunday Memo, and can you buy one?

You can't buy one. Memo is a wheeled robot with two arms from Sunday Robotics. Sunday's beta page says the Founding Family beta is free, invite-only and "launching late 2026," and that "we anticipate starting to ship Memo at scale 2027-2028." Its home page lists the chores it is training on: clearing tables and loading the dishwasher, pulling an espresso shot and handling piles of socks. Sunday says it is "still actively improving the reliability and generalization of these skills."

Can Unitree humanoids still be sold in the US?

Yes, for models authorized before the July 2026 FCC rule. The R1's grant (2A5PE-YUSHU010) is dated June 22, 2026. Check any model in our US availability check, and read the FCC robot rule explained for what the rule covers. Unitree ships from its own store, and the buyer handles import duties.

What should you watch before CES 2027?

• A 1X post announcing customer shipments, or a change to "US Deliveries start 2026" on the order page.
• Any Figure order page, deposit or price.
• Tesla's Optimus demo of tasks "that are not preprogrammed," which Musk said could come in "a month or 2."
• Sunday's first beta homes and any price.
• New humanoids at CES, January 6 to 9, 2027, and whether each one has FCC authorization to sell in the US.
