Walker S2 vs H1

Walker S2 from UBTech and H1 from Unitree 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. H1 carries more payload, which matters for material handling work. Both are at a similar stage of availability.
