Booster T1 Grippers Review: Same 118 cm T1, With Hands

T1 Grippers is Booster’s T1 with grippers — still about 118 cm and 30 kg. Our card lists 31 DOF. Not a different species of robot.

Booster T1 Grippers Review: Same 118 cm T1, With Hands

Quick Answer

T1 Grippers is not a new humanoid. It is Booster Robotics’ T1 with the gripper option. Body class stays about 118 cm and 30 kg. Booster’s own sheet puts the gripper configuration at 31 degrees of freedom. Our catalog wrote the height as 118 mm and scored the page like a unique industrial product.

Our Verdict

Field Rating Notes
Overall Review Score 6.9 / 10 Same real kit as T1 Standard, with a published hand option.

Commercial readiness 5.5 / 10 Developer platform. No public MSRP on our card.
Consumer readiness 1.0 / 10

Best for Labs that already decided on T1 and need end effectors
Biggest concern Buying this URL as if it were a different robot from T1 Standard

What it is

The Booster T1 chassis plus grippers. Official base size remains 118 × 47 × 23 cm and about 30 kg. Booster lists 31 total DOF with grippers, versus 23 on the bare T1 and 41 if you fit dexterous hands instead.

What is published

Booster’s T1 configuration table. Our profile repeats 2 hours and 0.8 m/s. Those are catalog figures. Price is not listed here.

Flaws

Same millimetre-height typo as the other T1 pages. Comparing it to Optimus was category error. Dexterous-hand T1 is a third option we do not have as its own review.

Real-world usefulness

The only T1 URL on this site that is honest about manipulation hardware. Still a lab biped, not a shift worker. Not Unitree G1.
