Humanoid robots can be quite expensive. You will have to pay for servos, their brain, and other components to put one together. The PhoneBot is a clever project that involves turning your smartphone into a humanoid robot. This robot stands 19.01 inches tall, weighing 1.8kg when you add your phone. It has 13 actuated joints and uses DYNAMIXEL XL430-W250-T servomotors. For its brain and sensors, it relies on your phone.
