| Task and control | ||
| Form | Quadruped | Quadruped |
| Use | Education, Research | Companion, Education, Research |
| User programming | Yes | Yes |
| Phone app | Yes | Yes |
| Intended use | – | Air and Pro provide remote-control and demonstration functions; EDU is the maker's configuration for robotics research and secondary development. |
| Movement | – | Air 0–2.5 m/s, Pro 0–3.5 m/s and X/EDU 0–3.7 m/s, with an approximately 5 m/s maximum claim for X/EDU. Published climbing angles are 30° for Air and 40° for the other configurations; performance depends on terrain and configuration. |
| Autonomy | – | LiDAR-based detection and avoidance are listed across the range. ISS 2.0 side-following is included on Pro, X and EDU, rather than Air. Demonstrations and AI descriptions do not establish general autonomous household work. |
| User programming | OpenCat, blocks, Python and C++; Skill Composer creates motion sequences. | The maker lists graphical programming across the range, so basic app programming is distinct from full secondary development. Its comparison table lists none for Air/Pro, partial access for X and full access for EDU; select the development configuration required for the task. |
| Remote control | – | App control; handheld controller optional on Air/Pro and included with X/EDU in the maker's comparison. Store bundles also offer Air/Pro with a controller. |
| Cloud and offline operation | Voice control runs locally without internet access or uploaded recordings. | – |
| Regional availability | Cream lite SKU PTNQLPTA0 and alloy SKU PTNQSPTA0 are orderable on the maker store, checked 3 October 2026. | The official global store accepts orders for Air, Pro and X; its selected product variants are available and its delivery note says shipment within one month. EDU requires a sales quotation. Freight, import clearance and destination rules apply; this is not a statement of immediate UK warehouse stock. Checked October 2026. |
| Release details | Exact Nybble Q first-sale date not established. The page at-a-glance block mentions the original wooden Nybble crowdfunding date and kit; these are not assigned to Nybble Q. | Unitree's dated press release confirms the announcement on 12 July 2023. The first retail delivery date is not established by the sources used; the store listing's creation date is not treated as first sale. |

| Processing | – | Eight-core high-performance CPU listed for Pro, X and EDU; the maker's table does not list that computing specification for Air. EDU offers additional compute modules, including Orin configurations. |
| Microphone | Yes | – |
| Sensors | Ultrasonic sensing and touch interaction. | Ultra-wide-angle 4D LiDAR and HD wide-angle camera across the range; foot-end force sensors and a depth camera are listed for EDU. |
| Camera | – | Front HD wide-angle camera; real-time image transmission through the app. EDU adds a depth camera. |
| Audio | – | Voice function is listed for Pro, X and EDU; the maker marks it absent for Air. |
| Actuators | Eleven servo joints; lite and alloy-servo versions. Feedback servos support guided motion programming. | Twelve aluminium knee-joint motor assemblies; approximately 45 N·m maximum largest-joint torque is listed for Pro/X/EDU. This is not the torque of every joint or a combined total. |
| Payload | – | Air approximately 7 kg, maximum approximately 10 kg; Pro approximately 8 kg, maximum approximately 10 kg; X/EDU approximately 8 kg, maximum approximately 12 kg. Retain the maker's distinction between normal and maximum loads. |
| Connections | – | Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2/4.2/2.1; 4G module with GPS on Pro/X/EDU rather than Air. |
| Size and weight | – | Standing length × width × height 70 × 31 × 40 cm; crouching 76 × 31 × 20 cm. Approximately 15 kg with battery; aluminium alloy and high-strength engineering plastic. |
| Durability | – | No ingress-protection rating is published on the exact Go2 specification page used. |
| Accessories | Sold assembled; cream lite/alloy variants orderable, white lite variant sold out on the maker store on 3 October 2026. Gallery white views show the same model in its other colour. | – |
| Battery | ||
| Battery life (maker's claim) | Approximately 1 hour of continuous walking | About 1–2 hours / About 2–4 hours |
| Battery capacity | – | 8,000–15,000 mAh |
| Battery | – | Standard battery 8,000 mAh on Air/Pro/X; long-endurance 15,000 mAh battery listed for EDU. Battery removable. Operating voltage 28–33.6 V. |
| Charging | – | Air/Pro/X standard 33.6 V 3.5 A charger; EDU 33.6 V 9 A fast charger. |
| Runtime conditions | – | Maker claims about 1–2 hours with the standard battery and about 2–4 hours with the long-endurance battery. The headline longer runtime is not standard across configurations; actual runtime varies by conditions. |
| Dock | – | Charging-pile compatibility is listed for X and EDU, absent for Air/Pro. Compatibility alone does not establish an autonomous return-to-dock function or an included dock. |
