PUDU D9 vs Unitree G1
One row per spec, aligned across 2 robots. A hatched cell means neither the maker nor the directories we read publish that value.
PUDU D9 or Unitree G1? What the published figures say
assembled from the figures below — no score, no ranking, no winner
Of the 34 measurements both robots publish, the printed values differ on 24 and are identical on 9.
12 of them are one number against another — PUDU D9 prints the higher figure on 12, Unitree G1 on 0 — and the other 12 differ in kind rather than in magnitude: a list, a yes/no, a range, or the same quantity printed in a different unit.
On height, PUDU D9 is 29% higher at against Unitree G1's .
On weight, PUDU D9 is 86%85% higher at against Unitree G1's .
On degrees of freedom, PUDU D9 is 83% higher at against Unitree G1's .
Unitree G1 has figures its sources state as a bound rather than an exact value, so those gaps are not like-for-like.
On walking speed both publish , but Unitree G1's source states it as a maximum rather than a typical figure — the same number, stated differently.
PUDU D9 publishes autonomy claim — — and Unitree G1 does not.
Unitree G1 publishes Wi-Fi — — and PUDU D9 does not.
The most important differences
ranked by how much of the catalogue publishes the measurement
The 5 most widely published of the 24 measurements where these two differ — ranked that way because a figure most of the catalogue publishes is one that means the same thing on both sides. Every value carries the source that states it.

What each one is
from each robot's own published columns
PUDU D9
PUDU D9 is a prototype bipedal humanoid from Pudu Robotics, designed in China. Its page publishes 49 of 195 sourced specifications, 22 of them from the maker.
Unitree G1
Unitree G1 is a general availability bipedal humanoid from Unitree Robotics, designed in China. Its page publishes 104 of 195 sourced specifications, 61 of them from the maker.
No value in this table has been independently measured or filed with a regulator — every number is a claim by a maker or by a third-party directory, and the chip on each one says which.
