UBTECH is the humanoid company you can actually audit: listed on the Hong Kong exchange (HKEX: 9880) since 2023, it reported 2025 revenue of ¥2.01bn with its full-size humanoid segment growing 22-fold to ¥821M — 41% of the business. It sold 1,079 full-size humanoids in 2025 and began mass delivery of the third-generation Walker S2 in November 2025, against ¥800M+ (~$112M) in accumulated Walker-series orders.
Its customer list is the industrial who's-who of China: BYD, Foxconn, Geely, FAW-Volkswagen, Audi FAW, SF Express. The robots do factory tasks — logistics, inspection, data collection — in phased deployments, with capacity targets of 5,000 units/yr in 2026. The counterweight: UBTECH is still loss-making (net loss ¥790M in 2025, though narrowing), and its machines are strictly industrial. But if you want audited financial evidence that humanoids are becoming a real product category, UBTECH's annual report is currently the best document in the industry.
Note that Walker S2 is only half of UBTECH's story now: in June 2026 the company opened a consumer front with UWORLD U1, a silicone-skinned companion humanoid aimed at homes rather than factories. Same maker, opposite mission — see our UWORLD U1 profile for that side of the business.

What's real
- • Mass delivery is real: several hundred Walker S2 units shipped from Nov 2025; 1,079 full-size humanoids sold in 2025
- • Public-company disclosure — audited revenue (¥2.01bn 2025), segment detail, and order books instead of press claims
- • Named blue-chip customers and partners: BYD, Foxconn, Geely, FAW-Volkswagen, SF Express
Know before you watch (or buy)
- • Strictly industrial — nothing here is aimed at homes or consumers
- • Still unprofitable (¥790M net loss in 2025, narrowing) — the segment's economics remain unproven
- • Deployments are phased factory rollouts; 'several hundred delivered' is the verified scale, not thousands
The evidence
Mass production and delivery since Nov 2025; 1,079 full-size humanoids sold in 2025 on ¥800M+ (~$112M) of orders; works with BYD, Foxconn, Geely, FAW-VW; targets 5k units/yr capacity in 2026.

Bottom line
The most transparent humanoid business in the world, and the strongest evidence that industrial humanoids are becoming a genuine product. Irrelevant to home buyers — essential to anyone tracking whether this industry is real.
FAQ
Is UBTECH's Walker S2 actually deployed?
Yes — mass production and delivery began in November 2025, with several hundred units shipping toward a 500-unit year-end target, and 1,079 full-size humanoids sold across 2025. Partners and customers include BYD, Foxconn, Geely, and FAW-Volkswagen. It's an industrial robot; you can't get one for your house.
