Reality check
At $299 it is a kid-friendly walking humanoid with block coding, but there is no SDK, no hands and no camera, it ships to US addresses only, and it went on sale on 15 October 2026, so nobody has reported a delivery yet.

About the Nova Minibackground, hardware and buying reality
FF Nova Mini is Faraday Future's entry-level humanoid, launched on 15 October 2026 alongside the $2,490 FF Nova. It stands 34.9 cm tall (349 x 176 x 99 mm), weighs 0.94 kg, has 17 servo joints (head 1, arms 3 each, legs 5 each), a 2000 mAh battery rated at about 50 minutes, and Bluetooth BLE 4.2. FF aims it at ages 8 and up at home and in classrooms, with a separate $499 curriculum. The shop page names no manufacturer, and FF's own Built in USA page says the first robot off its own line is due in February 2027. FF's robotics business is being transferred to FF EAI Robotics Ecosystem Inc. (agreements signed on 12 October 2026, not yet closed). The published spec table matches Robosen's K1 robot item by item, though neither company states a link.
What it does on day onewith zero programming
Walks, turns, stands up on its own, keeps balance and does a forward roll, per FF's launch release. Comes with preloaded actions and dance routines and built-in voice command words (you can add your own). Bluetooth connects out of the box with no Wi-Fi setup. FF says it is ready for a demo with no programming.
Best for: US parents and teachers who want a $299 programmable humanoid for kids' coding and demos, not developers who need an SDK.
