Customers are saying

Customers admire the remote's ease of use, compatibility, and reasonable price. Many appreciate its functionality and sleek design, while some note that the battery life and range are also positive aspects. However, a common concern is the remote's small size, which some find easy to misplace. A few users also mentioned challenges with button quality.

    I purchased this as a replacement to our first remote. While durable, the other bent in half after getting stuck inside a piece of furniture. We've since upgraded to the newer 4K Apple TV, but the old remote is user-friendly and I much prefer this one. Relieved that Apple still sells these so we could replace it!

    Inaccurate description

    Website description says: Compatible with Apple products introduced in 2005 or later that have a built-in infrared receiver For wide-ranging compatibility. Not compatible with MacBook Pro with Retina display or iMac (Late 2012). In practice, this is false. The package or instructions do not even reference how you would pair this to a supported Mac. Maybe a previous version of this product did, but no longer.

    The buttons fell off after a day. And because there’s no button when you press it it shocks you.

    I was iffy about purchasing this at first. After contemplating and pricing the alternatives I decided to purchase this remote. It has worked amazingly from the beginning. Never had any setup issues. It just automatically connected. For the price you can’t beat it. It doesn’t have the voice option but that’s okay. Your still able to search and use keyboard functions.

    Dropped my original remote in my coffee cup. Ouch. The replacement is identical and a seamless switch. I turned on my Apple TV and it worked right out the box. Glad for that!

    When our other device stopped working we couldn’ figure out what to check so my husband opened it to see what battery it used. We now no you don’t change batteries. We took it to the store and they showed us this product which is not complicated and operates in a format we are comfortable with. Oh, did I mention it was 75% less than our old one. Thank you geek squad employees.
