    Makes scrolling through the channels so much easier. With this model you can hold the bottom portion of the large button and it will automatically scroll. The other remote we had didn’t do that and it took forever to get through the guide.

    A little different set up than the original remote , but easy to use . Built sturdier and if you drop the case doesn’t crack.

    I bought a newer AppleTV and it came with this remote. I liked the upgrade so much, I bought this one to replace the old black plasticky one my older ATV came with. I’ve got a teething German Shepard puppy who loves stealing remotes, and I’ve found these in her mouth a dozen times. There’s not a scratch on either one of them! The touch pad is a little smaller and harder to use compared to the previous remotes, where the touch pad encompassed the entire upper third, but I prefer the clicks navigational buttons they added around it anyway. Connecting the remote to the existing TV took only a minute, mostly spent looking through menus to find the option to do so. Actually connecting it was simple.

    I like this remote much more than the older one. I bought 2 Sony TV’s at Best Buy and the Apple TV attachment’s. One remote gave up and we turned it in for the new one.

    This remote is high quality. Feels wonderful in your hand. Has that cool metal touch. Works right out of the box, has magnificent battery life. I bought this because someone spilled soda all over the original. Worked for awhile afterwards but eventually it gave out. Would definitely recommend this and would certainly purchase again if I needed.

    Works great! You just take out of the box and it’s ready to use. I like that it’s thicker because my kids are rough

    Better than the original. This remote replaced the one that came with our AppleTV. I was hesitant to get something that wasn’t like the original. But, I’m very happy we did. This one is more substantial and easier to hold. It also has a MUTE button that was totally missing from the original. Don’t hesitate to buy this upgraded remote. Its great.

    Much better than the old black Siri Remote. USB c charging is a plus. Battery lasts a very long time. For the price though, it wish it had better Find My compatibility like AirTags/Airpods Pro 2 and maybe an action button you could program to use for things like toggling Subtitles or the Light Sensitivity

    Very good product. Was waiting for the new Apple TV to be released but no word on when that will happen. My prior remote failed and needed a new remote. Very happy with purchase.
