Description
Introducing Neo: A Humanoid Robot for Everyday Life - On October 29th, a new home robot named Neo was unveiled, priced around $20,000. Standing at 5'6 and weighing like a golden retriever, Neo is designed to help with chores and is available for preorder with a $200 deposit. Created by California-based 1X, Neo is less intimidating than metallic robots, with a human-like gait and the ability to lift up to 55 lbs. It features water-resistant hands, a 4-hour runtime, and connects via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 5G. Neo's AI allows for conversational interaction, handling tasks like folding laundry and acting as an entertainment system. Early adopters will need to train the robot, raising privacy concerns, but 1X assures users will always stay in control. The first units are expected to ship in the US in 2026, with international expansion planned for the following year.
