Canon BG-E8, soft or hard shutter button?

Hi everyone, I have a small question about Canon's official grip for EOS 650D/700D (Rebel T4i/T5i), the BG-E8.

Does it have a Rebel-style shutter release button (the hard button with a noticeable "click"), or is it a full-frame EOS style button, the so-called "soft-touch release"?

Also, can you tell me whether the rest of the buttons on the grip feel the same as on the camera, or are they at least similar. Thanks in advance.
