G1 vs GR-2

G1 from Unitree and GR-2 from Fourier Intelligence 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. Both are at a similar stage of availability.
