Why it’s in

  • Lowest-priced full-body humanoid from the category's best-known maker
  • Official EU distribution with EU-version units via RobotShop EU
  • Clear upgrade path from the app-driven Air to the programmable EDU (up to 40 DoF)

What bothers us

  • About 1 h per battery; Basic units ship with dummy (non-gripping) hands
  • Only the EDU version supports secondary development (SDK)
  • Not a household helper; EU price (€10,164 incl. VAT) is far above the USD list price
