About 40% on China-origin collected today: the 2.5% MFN base, 25% Section 301 List 1, and the 12.5% Section 301 forced-labor duty effective 24 Jul 2026 with no expiry. It began the same morning the 10% Section 122 surcharge lapsed, so the total rose from about 37.5% rather than falling to 27.5%. Confirm the live rate before ordering.

| Out of the box | Walks at up to 0.5 m/s, dances, recognizes faces, and responds to voice and touch via an app, day one. The standard Lite and Pro versions are family and classroom companions, not research platforms: Noetix lists lower-layer motion control development only on the EDU versions. | Runs at 2 m/s, jumps, does continuous backflips, and runs demo routines from the gamepad. It is an entertainment and campus-outreach platform, not a task robot, and the base N2 has no SDK access: Noetix lists secondary development only on the N2 EDU. |
| Development access | Noetix advertises open programming interfaces for education: its spec table lists visual programming and upper-layer motion control development on every version and lower-layer motion control only on the EDU versions (EDU-Air, EDU-Pro, EDU-Max). It publishes a DDS-based Bumi SDK on GitHub; the README is brief and Noetix's document center is in Chinese. | No SDK access on the base N2: Noetix's version table lists secondary development only for the N2 EDU. For the EDU it publishes a DDS-based SDK with high-level and low-level controllers and an Isaac Gym training repo on GitHub, with a Chinese SDK guide; ROS is not mentioned. |
| Best for | Chinese buyers and curious hobbyists who want a walking humanoid for the price of a laptop. | Entertainment and outreach buyers who want an affordable, agile biped and can order it by quote; schools and labs that want to program it need the N2 EDU. |
