Does the screen stay on the Tamagotchi always? I notice I can switch the display to show my pet or the time clock but the screen never goes blank

yes! the screen stays on constantly, even when your tamagotchi dies the screen will stay on the dead pet until revived, leading you back to the egg screen and so forth. theres no real way to turn the screen “off”.

What type of batteries does it take?

Hello, These Tamagotchi's use a single 3v battery (CR2032). Thanks!

my tamagotchi came with no sound. waht i need to do? click a and c buttons don’t help me

Nice product overall

Absolutely loving it. Came in perfect condition. Works perfectly with sound and everything working properly. Loved the pet too. The thing is very cute to resist. One thing I would advice is to use high quality branded batteries as the batteries they provide are of cheap quality which drain faster (experienced with my previous ones) in 3-4 days. Just a bit costly but loved it
