Let's get a photo of the subject!

from iFixit's teardown

On the inside, this vibration motor seems fairly standard. It's essentially a voicecoil installed in a moving mass assembly, flanked by a pair of powerful magnets.

However, it's interesting that this LRA seems to vibrate along its short axis, while many haptic feedback motors that we've seen vibrate along their long axis.

I actually learned a lot from this post of yours.

Thank you for the infos NickFire.

Happy to help. But don't get me started on how much research that took. A flipping long time is what it flipping took.

It feels like bog-standard rumble to me.

They just want to know if it's worth sticking up their bum.
