UBTECH's First Full-Size Biomimetic Humanoid Robot Surpasses 1,000 Pre-Orders in 3 Days

UBTECH Robotics, the Hong Kong-listed humanoid robot company known as "the first humanoid robot stock," has launched the global first full-size biomimetic humanoid robot for pre-sale on the JD.com platform, with over 1,200 units ordered within three days of listing. The robot features two variants — a male version at 183cm and 42kg, and a female version at 168cm and 35.2kg. Both models offer 88 degrees of freedom across the entire body, with a battery life of 2 to 4 hours. The product is positioned as an emotional companion and home interaction robot. According to the company, a deposit of RMB 3,000 is required for pre-order, with the presale period ending July 15. Notably, the deposit is fully refundable before the deadline. UBTECH has stated that the product's full details, including its design and feature set, will be officially unveiled at a launch event later this month. The product listing has drawn significant consumer attention, with over 150,000 people in Beijing alone browsing the product page within the first three days. The company has explicitly stated that the robot is intended for adult users only, reflecting the sophisticated nature of the biomimetic technology and the emotional companionship positioning. Industry observers have noted that the pre-order pricing structure — with a RMB 3,000 deposit — suggests a full purchase price potentially in the range of several hundred thousand RMB, comparable to mid-range automobiles in China. However, UBTECH has not yet disclosed the final retail price. The overwhelming response to the pre-sale underscores the growing consumer appetite for advanced humanoid robots in China's domestic market, particularly for applications beyond industrial use cases. While UBTECH has previously focused on educational and commercial robotics, this consumer-oriented product represents a significant strategic expansion into the personal robotics segment. The 88 degrees of freedom across the full body is particularly noteworthy — it represents a significant technical achievement in biomimetic motion control, enabling the robot to replicate human-like movements with unprecedented fidelity for a consumer product at this scale.
