Galbot has put a price on its ET1 bipedal humanoid, with three versions starting at 79,000 yuan. The pricing, reported by QbitAI and covered by Pandaily, puts a clearer cost on the entertainment-focused robot—and on the extra capabilities available above the entry tier.

  • ET1 is reportedly priced at 79,000 yuan for Standard, 139,000 yuan for Pro and 179,000 yuan for Flagship.
  • The Pro adds the advertised “watch-and-learn” capabilities; the Flagship offers more onboard compute and development options.
  • Galbot positions ET1 for interaction and performance, including store greetings, theme parks and stage shows.

We covered ET1’s preorder launch in September, when pricing remained unconfirmed. The new figures give prospective buyers a more concrete basis for comparing the configurations.

Three prices, different capabilities

VersionReported priceMain distinction
Standard79,000 yuanEntry configuration for performance and conversation
Pro139,000 yuanAdded compute and advertised interactive learning capabilities
Flagship179,000 yuanMore compute and broader development/customization options

According to Pandaily’s account, the Standard supports dancing, performance and natural-language conversation. The Pro adds active learning, dynamic reasoning and action planning, while the Flagship targets users seeking more customization. Dexterous hands are described as an option for the two higher tiers, so buyers should check the configuration rather than assume they are included in the headline prices.

Galbot’s official specifications list ET1 at 1.25 metres tall and 32 kg including its battery, with stereo cameras and 26 degrees of freedom. Adding dexterous hands brings another 12 degrees of freedom on the Pro and Flagship.

The company lists RK3588 and RDK X5 processors, with additional Orin Nano compute rated at 40 TOPS for the Pro and NX compute rated at 100 TOPS for the Flagship. Its product page also promotes a 100-million-parameter motion model and learning new movements through human interaction.

These remain advertised capabilities. The pricing announcement establishes what Galbot is asking for each tier; it does not establish how reliably the robot can learn unfamiliar tasks. For customers considering ET1 for a venue or performance business, that distinction—and which features are included at each price—will matter as much as the starting figure.
