Overview
The "no compromises" Go2. It carries a Jetson on board, so no external compute backpack is needed. The EDU has an Orin Nano 8 GB (40 TOPS), and the EDU Plus an Orin NX 16 GB (100 TOPS), more than an Orin Nano Super.

Air, Pro and X prices are from Unitree's store, before tax and freight. Unitree does not list prices for the EDU, EDU Plus or Go2-W, so those are Top3DShop prices (October 2026). Specs come from Unitree's Go2 and Go2-W pages, and the EDU and EDU Plus Jetson modules from RoboStore's listings. The X, EDU and EDU Plus can sprint to about 5 m/s. The Go2-W's Orin NX (100 TOPS) module is sold separately. "Not listed" means Unitree's Go2-W page does not mention it.
