Degrees of freedom
Body and hands, separately where publishedWhat this means
Each degree of freedom is one joint that can move on its own. More joints mean more human-like movement, but also more motors to power and control. Hands are where counts climb fastest: a dexterous hand alone can have 10 to 20.

Payload
Always say per arm or carried, and peak or sustainedWhat this means
How much a robot can lift is quoted in very different ways: per arm or with the whole body, as a brief peak or something it can hold all shift. Only figures measured the same way can be compared.
50 kg peak · 30 kg sustainedCarried, whole robot
7 kg per arm rated · 15 kg peakRated / peak per arm, per Unitree
5 kg per armAgiBot figure; a third-party guide lists 10 kg 'strength'
Battery capacity

Runtime
Include stated conditionsWhat this means
Hours on one charge mean little without the conditions: standing still drains far less than walking or carrying loads. A robot that swaps its battery can work longer than its runtime suggests.
About 4 hConditions not stated
About 3 hDepends on configuration
8 hAt a 1:1 standing-to-walking ratio
Battery swap
AutonomousDual batteries swapped by the robot at a station
ManualQuick-release smart battery
ManualBattery replacement plus autonomous charging (docks itself)
Charging time
Not disclosed
Not disclosed
2 h or less
Environmental rating
IP code + operating temperatureWhat this means
The IP code says how well the robot is sealed: the first digit is dust, the second water. IP67 means dust-tight and able to survive brief submersion, which matters in factories that are hosed down.
IP67, -20 to 40 °CWater-resistant for washdowns

Control approach
What this means
Who is really in control. A teleoperated robot is driven by a person; a scripted one replays programmed moves; a learned policy decides for itself from training. Demos often mix all three without saying so.
