The CPU Candidate of Lastation and Noire's younger sister. She represents PlayStation Handhelds which is referenced through her appearance in both forms, her processor units, and some of her dialogue.
Due to the Neptunia series being a game that revolves around different universes and dimensions, there are multiple Uni's throughout the series though all of them retain more or less the same personalities and core aspects regardless of the setting.
Musical Themes
- Uni's Theme: Uni has her own theme in Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 composed by Kenji Kaneko that plays mainly during boss battles against her. During the Conquest Ending of the game, it plays during the battle against Uni and Noire along with the cutscene after as well. Uni's theme does not appear on the Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 OST.
- Sham Cold Girls: Uni's duet song with Noire on the Hyperdimension Neptunia Duet Sisters Vol.2 album.
- Yell! -little girl's secret-: Uni's solo song on the Hyperdimension Neptunia Duet Sisters Vol.2 album
- Uni's Theme ver.V: In Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Uni gets another theme which is titled Uni's Theme ver. V that is composed by Nobuo Uematsu and preformed by his band the Earthbound Papas. It is an acoustic remix version of her theme from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 that features the main melody of the theme being played on guitar.

Etymology

Trivia
- In the group picture, Uni has six fingers. While this was fixed in the artbook, it still exists in the game.
- Uni's bust size is the only one of the goddesses that decreases upon transformation instead of staying the same or increasing like everyone else's. Though, in an event in Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, this causes Nepgear to wonder whether it's not that Uni's breasts shrink, it's that Uni had just been stuffing them in her human form.
- In a popularity poll, Uni placed 5th place, making her and Noire the second most popular sister group right after Neptune and Nepgear which placed 2nd and 3rd, although Noire did come in 1st.
- Uni's shrinkage after she goes HDD is a reference to how each models of the PSP is smaller and lighter than the last (PSP-1000>PSP-2000/3000>PSP Go).
- In the stinger for the True Ending of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1, Uni alludes to her representation by referring to the Vita handheld as herself while thanking the player. This dialogue was not removed in the PC port.
