Earlier quoted context omitted.

You are assuming this thing is real and not just a web page.

Unitree is a huge well known company. You think they'd fake this?

is using a prototype firmware or hardware platform faking it when you're showing exclusive prototype capabilities and trying to pass them off as reproducible by the production unit?

unitree has done this consistently.

They never give you dev access without paying like 10x the price.

Interesting, you can’t use their SDK or you can’t load whatever you want on it?

E.g. Unitree R1 has attractive low price but missing the “secondary development” pack (access to Jetson Orin and all the firmware stuff to let you run custom software). It’s all just their software. Useless tool. Click button and it dances. Then what.

What does unitree G1 do as a demo that it can't do once you bought one?

I've seen a similar setup with a different Chinese cutting edge product. App access is free, ssh is open, but API keys and the ssh password is priced like a cheap car.
