Build Quality

Retro Design
Customers are overwhelmingly positive about the retro design of the numpad, praising its old-school look, feel, and aesthetic. Some users appreciate the clicky keys and the nostalgic coloring that reminds them of older technology. However, a few customers have noted issues with the screen placement and color consistency when paired with other 8BitDo products.
Calculator Functionality
Customers are generally positive about the calculator functionality of the product, praising its ease of use and convenience as a standalone calculator or in conjunction with their computer. Some customers have noted that they primarily plan to use it for this purpose rather than as a numpad. A small group of purchasers mentioned that there are only 9 digits on display when using it as a standalone calculator, but overall the sentiment is positive.

Highlights
Quality
Works great for work and i love the connection options and that it is rechargable
The plastics are that old school feel that are nice and durable and hefty.
I've gone weeks without charging, and like the keyboard it has a long long charge.
This numpad should work using the same dongle as the keyboard, blows my mind that does not work like that.
Price
If you need a numpad or just a fancy but basic calculator, this is a good choice for the price.
