1X NEO: what 1X has published
- Price: $20,000 for Early Access ownership, or $499 a month for the Standard subscription.
- Deposit: $200, described as fully refundable.
- Warranty: 3 years with Early Access ownership. The order page lists no warranty for the subscription.
- Support: Early Access includes “Premium Support,” which the order page does not define.
- Delivery: 1X says US deliveries start in 2026 and other markets from 2027. Its April 30, 2026 factory announcement still described first customer shipments as planned for 2026, and Dezeen reported in April 2026 that deliveries had not yet begun.
- Remote help: for chores NEO does not know, owners can schedule a 1X Expert to guide it remotely.
- Care: the soft suit and shoes are machine washable.
The only service detail we found is in NEO’s specifications, which rate its tendon drives for 2,000,000 load cycles at nominal load and 100,000 at peak load, with “1 day service replacement.”

Who repairs humanoid robots?
For home humanoids, the answer is still taking shape. 1X has not published how NEO repairs will be handled. Independent field-service companies are getting ready: Robo Reliance, a Colorado company founded in 2024, says it provides third-party installation, maintenance, and repair for humanoid robots in businesses and homes across the United States, and that the first home humanoids are on the way. It does not name the humanoid models it supports or publish prices. Who repairs home robots explains how service works for the robots already in homes.
