Unitree H1

Unitree has become known for accessibly priced legged robots; the H1, G1, and R1 humanoids target research, education, and light industrial use. In August 2026 it priced a Shanghai STAR Market IPO at roughly a $9 billion valuation — the first pure-play humanoid maker to list on mainland China — after a retail tranche oversubscribed more than 8,000 times; on its August 19 trading debut the stock opened about 629% above its 150.80-yuan IPO price before closing up roughly 460%, for a market value near $50 billion (about 342 billion yuan). Days before the debut it previewed a locomotion-focused prototype called 'Superman,' claiming a 2-metre standing jump and a 12.66 m/s top speed. In the three sessions after listing the stock then slid about 45% from its post-debut peak — erasing roughly $30 billion in market value — as analysts questioned whether robotics enthusiasm had outrun commercial reality; the company's adjusted first-quarter 2026 profit had fallen 53%.
