1X NEO

Common

1X's humanoid robot for the home, priced at $20,000.

NEO is a home humanoid robot from 1X Technologies, a company that started in Norway and is now headquartered in the US. It released NEO Beta in 2024 and NEO Gamma in February 2025, then opened consumer preorders in October 2025: a $20,000 outright purchase, or a $499-per-month subscription. It is reported to stand about 1.68 meters tall and weigh about 30 kg, able to lift 70 kg, with 22 degrees of freedom in its hands, tendon-driven actuation, a soft outer shell, and an operating noise level of about 22 decibels. Household tasks it cannot yet handle can be completed by a 1X employee taking over remotely, which has drawn privacy criticism. The company plans deliveries in the US starting in 2026; as of July 2026, no confirmed customer deliveries had been reported.

ExampleA user schedules NEO to fold laundry through a phone app; for tasks it can't handle, they can book a remote operator to take over.
