Evidence status: manufacturer and supplier records. Checked 14 September 2026. This initial watchlist is selective, not an exhaustive catalogue. HHA has not purchased, tested or verified compliance for these machines. A listing is not an endorsement.
Can you actually get a humanoid in Australia?
Australian suppliers list research humanoids, including the Unitree G1. That does not make those machines turnkey household cleaners. For home-focused products, a global product announcement does not confirm an Australian delivery contract, warranty or local support arrangement.
| Robot / purpose | Price evidence | Australian supply and support | Capability and battery evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unitree G1 / research and development | Manufacturer base price US$13,500, excluding tax and shipping. EDU: contact sales. | Chironix in Malaga, WA, lists G1. Obtain a written configuration, lead time, support scope and Australian compliance documentation. HHA has not established responsible-supplier status from that listing. | Manufacturer advertises locomotion and manipulation; some sample functions remain under development. About two hours battery life claimed. Not a validated cleaning service. |
| 1X NEO / home humanoid | No Australian delivered price verified in this review. A reservation amount is not the full price. | Australian delivery terms, responsible supplier and local repair coverage not confirmed by HHA. | 1X describes basic autonomy and scheduled remote Expert assistance. Claims 842 Wh battery and four-hour runtime; not four hours of independently verified cleaning. |
| Weave Isaac 0 / stationary laundry robot | Current Australian price not verified. | Weave reports shipments across California. Australian supply and support not verified. | Manufacturer reports laundry folding in homes. Stationary task-specific robot; not a walking humanoid. Battery specification not established in the reviewed source. |
| Weave Isaac 1 / home robot | Australian delivered quote not obtained. | Manufacturer says first shipments in northern-hemisphere autumn 2026. That statement does not establish Australian availability. | Product announcement; HHA has no witnessed trial results. Runtime and Australian configuration require confirmation. |
What “landed in Australia” should include
Use a written supplier quote, an explicit exchange rate and the relevant import treatment. A currency conversion alone omits freight, insurance, duties where applicable, GST, clearance, delivery and commissioning. Subscription charges, spare batteries, hands and development software can change the economics substantially.
Worked assumption, not a landed quote: US$13,500 × A$1.50 per US$1 = A$20,250 hardware only. Add an assumed A$2,000 freight and transit insurance: A$22,250 before tax, duties, clearance and commissioning. The exchange rate and freight are illustrative inputs, not current market quotes. We deliberately leave the final landed total unconfirmed.
Five things to obtain in writing
- Exact hardware, software, hands and permitted commercial use.
- Delivery to your Australian address, all charges and cancellation terms.
- The contracting Australian entity, applicable compliance evidence and responsibility for defects.
- Local repair arrangements, parts lead times, warranty and support hours.
- Task evidence: full run, assistance disclosed, repeatability and failure recovery.
How this tracker changes
We aim to check this page monthly and sooner when a material source changes. Each substantive revision retains the original publication date and records what changed. Written Australian quotes and independently witnessed results will be clearly distinguished from manufacturer claims.
