Optimus Gen 3 vs Figure 02
Optimus Gen 3 from Tesla and Figure 02 from Figure AI target overlapping use cases, so the decision usually comes down to price, payload and how soon you can actually take delivery. At least one of the two has no public list price, so budget planning means talking to the maker directly. Availability also differs, so check the shipping window before committing.
