TAMAGOTCHI BANDAI 42904B2 Pix Green, Single

Requested gift by 26 yr old. She loves it. Only complaint was delivery. Was not sent out when released on 19/12 as delivery delayed by manufacturer and then again by delivery company so didnt receive in time for Christmas

My daughter absolutely loved the original Tamagotchi I bought for her (as did I from years back) and she really wanted the new Pix version so I bought this for her for Christmas. Well this is now her new favourite toy and its so much better in so many ways with a lot of features and she can connect to her friends Tamagotchi's Pix. They got a Tamagotchi club hehe.The only drawback I have for this (otherwise it'd be an easy 5 stars) is the battery life is absolutely dreadful. It takes 2 AAA batteries which you need a small Philips head screwdriver to replace the batteries. I'm not sure if its due to how much my daughter is playing with it but we're literally having to change the batteries every 3 days or so. Her friend also mentioned that it drains the battery quick but I didn't think it was this often. We use rechargeable batteries so it's something that we can live with as she loves it so much, however I thought I'd highlight this as it might be a deal breaker for some people. Otherwise it's the perfect gift for young kids (daughter is 8 yrs).

Long time Tama fan - Shop around, as prices are different everywhere, but expect to pay more for the blue and green ones, as they're newer, different on the inside, and have slightly longer battery life than the earlier pink and purple ones. That being said, I use rechargeable batteries, and my Litron (spelling) only lasted three days, but that was with heavy use. Haven't tried my rechargeable Duracell batteries yet, as they're in other Tamas I'm running, but they do tend to last longer. A have a lot of rechargeable batteries, so it's not a huge deal. A mini screwdriver is needed to press in the top button as well, to take off the battery door; just mind you don't press a front "button" when changing the batteries and replacing the battery door.Easy to use. It's a bit odd that there are no actual pressy buttons, but more like nubs that are touch sensitive. Once I figured out how much pressure to apply then operation was absolutely fine. I have adult fingers too, but I manage just fine.Camera quality is a bit low, so good lighting is essential.There is a QR Code function, and already there is an extensive catalogue of items/accessories/rooms/decor/meals/snacks available online. There's also a weekly mission and prize on the official website.I recommend getting a screen protector and cover and/or case. They're cheaper on AliExpress, but delivery is a month, but worth it.I do not have any negatives. A manual is provided, but a more extensive digital PDF version is available online; a must have. Thee are also character guides on the official website also.I know it's pricey, but there's so much packed into a colour Tama, and if looked after it will last years and years.
