From a software developer prespective, the Uni is also a ticking time bomb. Once it goes out of service it's impossible to recreate a substitute Tamaverse or meetup app like the On/Meets because the Uni seems to be redirecting itself to Bandai's server. The only way for fans to build a substitute connection to the Tamaverse is if Bandai relinquishes the server to fans.

[@OyindaOduyoye]

interesting, and a bit sad. hopefully we don’t have to worry about that for a long long time

[@theWinduru]

If that happens, I guess I'll be getting my degree in electronics after all XD

[@FairPlay137]

I'm sure some dedicated fan will find a way to trick the Uni into connecting to a reverse-engineered fan server once the official service dies. I don't see the Tamagotchi Uni service ending for another two to four years or so, though, but nothing lasts forever.

[@asie]

@@FairPlay137 hopefully it gets enough updates until then! it lacks a lot of features, I really miss the zoom in when you press C and the little animations (I think it's C) and also turning the Tama off! it would be nice to add those in an update, I hope it won't be locked to a future Uni+ or Uni upgraded device, or maybe they'll abandon the Wi-Fi factor and updates, who knows

[@DASHFULplays]

I sense some DNS spoofing/redirecting shananigans coming up when that happens

[@Odd_Bunny]

Im hoping with the Uni you can visit friends over wifi in the future, honestly that would really make it worth the $60

[@peachjackson3856]

Wish the On could’ve continued. And also wish dna mixing was included with the uni. I’m reserving judgement but so far it feels a lot like a work in progress. Thank you so much for your takes on these issues! 😁

[@peachjackson3856]

And yeah, the dance game has got to go!

[@Carla-ec6xn]

Not everyone liked the gene mixed, myself included. It felt like the main point of the ONs was breeding tamas, and the device itself got super boring for me in 3 weeks every single time

[@pictur3scrazy]

As a Neopets player, I love the “dailies” aspect the Pix offers. Even though I hate the “swiping” of the fake buttons almost never registering first try, I look more forward to playing with my Pix than my Uni.

[@photofrog]

Thank you for making this video. I'm an OG Tamagotchi player and am looking to get back into it. I feel much more informed now. Very nice video.

[@OyindaOduyoye]

my pleasureee, happy to help :))

[@cfcheather26]

Keep doing videos like this. It was very helpful as a parent trying to find out which one to buy. Thanks

[@OyindaOduyoye]

glad it was helpful!

[@Carla-ec6xn]

I'm concerned that in two years all the stuff that's currently unavailable now will become unavailable again due to the servers being shut down

[@asie]

same! I hope they keep updating it, but we all realized there's a pattern and we're getting a new one in 2-3 years and the Uni servers will get shut down too, it stinks

[@Ilikegarlicbread69]

Yeah, I had a bad experience with that since the Tamagotchi On app shut down :(

[@myoume987]

This video was so helpful. Really enjoyed watching it. Thank you :)

[@cinarynroll]

The fans have made a English patch for the smart! Mines comes Friday!😊

[@cinarynroll]

And I have to disagree on the pix. You can’t marry. That’s a big bummer for me personally.

[@TheZacc]

How do you install/get the patch? 💟

[@OyindaOduyoye]

here’s the link to buy the patch for y’all who are interested , it’s sold kind of like a smart card: tamagotchicenter.com/shop/products/the-center-card-tamagotchi-smart-complete-english-patch-16mb

OMG great video. I really don't know which one I want. Thank you thank you - I'm leaning to the PIX

Buying my dughter's first Tama for her B-Day soon. Your video was so helpful and very through! I had one when I was younger and now I'm passing the tourch. Keep the Tama content coming!

[@OyindaOduyoye]

glad it was helpful! hope she enjoys her new tama :)

[@karawillis4767]

Which did you get? Idk anything about about all these other Tamas except the OG lol. I’d like to get 1 for my son I think.

[@thatartperson1]

This video has been super helpful in making my decision on which to get I just got a tamagotchi uni I’m sooo excited thank you ☺️ (the main reason is because of the Wi-Fi feature so it can update and change so it doesn’t get repetitive or boring )❤

[@OyindaOduyoye]

happy to help☺️

[@copyshy]

thanks for being so thorough with the comparison and including the cons too! I was really curious about how the pix and uni compare to each other. I'm still debating on which one to get if I do eventually get one, so this helps a lot! 😊

[@OyindaOduyoye]

my pleasure !

[@CabbagePatch8090]

Nice work as always 😊

[@OyindaOduyoye]

thank you! i appreciate it 🫶🏾

[@dirthousegirl]

I love seeing a video of someone else who likes the Pix. I feel like it gets a lot of hate in the tamagotchi community, espically on the subreddit. I don't think I like it better than the Uni though personally. I think if you can afford to get both, get both for the experience! I like that the Pix is more engaging and has more/better games, ESPECIALLY if you have the Pix Party cause it comes with more games and items. The tamas on the Pix are definitely more needy than the Uni which depending on your life style is a Pro or a Con lol. The thing that makes the Uni beat the Pix for me are the phsyical buttons and the being able to wear 4 accessories at once. Anyways I loved the video, thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@thefresitalinda]

Yo conseguiré en uni porque es el único que sale en la revista de navidad 🎄🎁❤🎉 es genial🎅😘😍

[@mr_kraabs6951]

Love this comment thank you

I just got my Uni yesterday, arrived from Singapore two days ago and I'm loving it! I can't wait to explore everything since this is my first color tamagotchi ever. Though I noticed the same thing you said about the scratches, I literally just wiped the screen with my glasses scarf and it already got scratched a bit. I will be cautious with it since it cost quite an amount of money. Thanks for making this video!

[@rocketwomanrocks]

Hey may I know which store you got it from in Singapore? Thx

[@ryanpooley]

Ive been wanting a new tama for the longest! Last colored one i bought was the on/meets, the new ones just didnt compare because i loved the gene mixing so much but im ready for a new tama lol

[@potatosrock_12]

I just bought a pix for myself and I’m so excited for it to arrive

[@anyaburke6636]

[@CabbagePatch8090]

They also have three games for certain holidays coming up etc. Fir spring and easter i have dancing, egg hunt, and fast food

[@frikoffmom]

I've had a few and as much as the smart lacks, it's the only I've kept using the longest because its so low maintenance, especially if you have a smart card and food is free. I use it as a watch at work tbh

[@joshmcgootermier2301]

Great video. We had a pox but just wanted an opinion on what else was out there.

[@AbeM.]

The uni’s biggest downside for me is longevity. Most Pix and On units will be just fine and functional years down the road, the Pix in particular will be really long-lasting thanks to the QR code functions. Meanwhile, the unis will be more like old iPods, with dead non-functional batteries, and the servers will eventually be closed down, so updates and content will become unavailable. So it’ll be like, a “it was fun while it lasted” situation.

[@andrassevigny4035]

Thanks for the info, this was actually incredibly helpful. I haven’t had a tamagotchi since connection V3, I’m looking to at this moment get a PIX or an ON, as well as a Deka Home Gotch or an Angel Gotch. Thanks again!!

[@OyindaOduyoye]

no problem! glad this was helpful :)

[@Angya_Channel]

Tamagotchi Uni is my first color tama and I love it. I also wear it. I'm waiting more than ten years before choosing wich to buy. I dislike to buy imported ones in japanese. I'm very happy to have almost all I wanted: 1) rechargeble battery; 2) my language - Italian!-; 3) wrist band; 4) a prince under 100 euro and 5) a lot of customization. Maybe this one is not the best ever, but I like it. However, I hope they will add genetics in a new updated version, because I never tried it before.

[@thefresitalinda]

Siiii estoy igual que tú

[@amberhebert3713]

I really wanted a Tamagotchi On and was never able to get one and they aren’t available unless you pay 200 from an eBay seller

[@pcktmnstr]

With pix they fix the battery life with pix party mines been running about a week and that battery hasn’t died

[@angel_cake-nr1mq]

THANK YOU

[@alexxCAUGHTFIREEx3]

I own all 3 and the on 😅 I have yet to try the uni but I am missing the features of the on... it gives me more to come back to and I miss the genes it was more unique and gave me something to try for I guess? But I know they are not easy to get now which sux

[@hrafnafadhir]

Is it just my phone or is her video EYE SEARINGLY BRIGHT?! Jesus, KZbin! Let me lower the brightness on or HDR videos!

I have the pix on and I just got the uni yesterday maby I should get the smart

[@lricci007]

I love the Uni and wanted to love the Pix, but I find the touch buttons so erratic, so frustrating I just stopped playing with it. Plus, the Uni is to me brighter and more vivid, the font in bold and just more pleasing.

[@sundaesx]

i had an uni first but yeah a pix followed soon after lol

[@stanskzforeverr]

I have the pix and on, the tama uni is the only one left besides the tama smart. (I dont think im getting the smart) heres my opinions on the pix and on (starting with on) the design is just so cute and pretty +4 points. The tamagotchi on was the first tama that had a screen with color i got +2 points. 6 points! Now the pix, you can take photos +4 points, the design is kinda plain -2 points, the tama is more animated +3 points, there is no more marrige and dna mixing :( -3 points, there is new games that are really fun +3 points,the battery life sucks -1 point, score:4 points. The tamagotchi on is my fave idk why. The tama uni design is honestly really ugly, but theres faceplates to make it look cuter (idk where to find them tho :/ ) anyways thats my opinion on the tamagotchis

[@LONGTIMEAGO]

I'm totally honest.. I don't like the new tamas that much. I'm new in the tama world ^^ . Everything started this year when I purchased a pix party. Meanwhile I got a uni, smart, p's and a sweets meets. I love the older tamas much more than the newer ones. Hope they will go back to the style of the older versions like meets/on.

[@ewidontlikeyou]

The pix is my least favorite newer model. I love the On and Uni! :D Connections will always reign supreme.

[@minidos2684]

​@@ewidontlikeyou I have a pix party and my sister has an uni, and we have agreed they are better for different things 😊

[@luciaarmarioreal5101]

If you have maximum friendship with your tamagochi pix and the photo album is empty and you never do it, it stays with you when you hit not to make the album infinitely as long as you don't neglect it, my pix party reached 101 years and before that I asked for things every 15 minutes now every half hour

[@anyaburke6636]

I really enjoyed this video- really awesome comparison between the different models! Also, your room is SO cute! Edit- That is so strange that the tama pix has more interactions with real people & their tamas, but you can't marry their tamas? Or marry at all? But also all the tamas are STRONG AND INDEPENDENT!!!!!

[@OyindaOduyoye]

thank youuu! 🫶🏾

@@C4ndieactually I have the uni and I charge it it last about 4-3 hours but maybe cause I use it a lot but if it last three days then ur tamagotchi uni character will be poor hygiene and stuff.. but if u plan on getting it here’s sum of the places u can charge it laptop,desktop,computer,power bank,back of tv,lamp,Nintendo dock and that’s really it!

[@OyindaOduyoye]

it should last a few days but depends on your use. i charge every 3-4 days

[@LeeDee5]

I find the Uni very boring. ☹ I love the buttons but the marketing made it sound like the uni would do so much. I think my "perfect" modern color tama would be a mix of the Pix and the Uni. Like I would take the tamas, marriage, and buttons from the uni but take the gameplay from the pix. Hopefully they can keep updating the Uni . Like in 2023 why is the storage so limited?

[@thefresitalinda]

Lo compro?

[@missjayybb]

Can the uni work without wifi

[@OyindaOduyoye]

yes!

[@gwennz1]

Btw it’s not an “Oo nee” it’s “you-nee” as in universe, talking about the tamaverse

[@pez7313]

I absolutely hate my tamagotchi uni! it's boring. It has some cute things about the tamaverse, but other than that, I dislike it. I hate that they gave us the same repetitive sounds from the smart.🙉 I want the egg shape back like on the meets/on. All new and way more advanced than ever before.🎉🎉🎉🎉

The whole point of a virtual pet is that it’s for lazy people who want a cute pet without actual putting the effort to do so. I HATE how you have to exercise with the tamagotchi uni, so far it’s my least favorite tamagotchi.
