Just recently moved and cannot find my remote to Apple TV. As soon as I took it out of the box it worked great. It's pricey though... as Apple products often are!

Had to purchase another remote to replace the original that has somehow disappeared. This was online for $59.95 but when I went to the store it was $79.95. Best Buy Associate said they would match online price. Remote is very sensitive & takes getting used to.

The Apple remote is so user friendly. You can just swipe your finger to enter letters instead of manually typing. The built in Siri function also makes it a breeze! I love this remote.

I broke the original on the cake with my Apple TV HD and used my iPhone for a little while, but that gets pretty old quick it nice to have a dedicated remote with volume control.

Replacement for my Apple TV remote

Apple TV is a pretty cool device, and I especially like that I can use it to access streaming services other than Apple TV+. Recently I accidentally broke my remote, so I had to pick up a new one. Not much to say, this is a perfect replacement, and is identical to the one that came with my Apple TV. I cannot speak to the Siri features, as I have never used them. Overall the remote is easy to use; the touchpad is responsive, buttons are simple and well thought out, and I love that I can charge this with a standard Apple cable. The price was pretty reasonable, considering it's an Apple device.

Easy to use and easy to set up! Siri makes it easy to speak in the search engine rather than having to type everything with the remote. Siri is worth the extra money!

Hands-down I’m all about Apple products always have been and probably always will be, the Apple Siri remote has its positives and negatives. I love Siri being integrated into the remote it allows me to control my smart home or even ask for a certain movie however if this remote slides into the cushion of your couch or you bump it the wrong way There goes whatever you were watching because now you have to start all over and find your show because the overly sensitive touch pad will either change the programming or switch apps. There is a place with adjust the sensitivity however it’s just not enough.

Dropped the last one in the dog water, which prompted this purchase. Works just as the original one did. Wish it wasn’t so slim and smooth cause I lose it in the couch all the time!

The remote works well, but is very different than the "old" style Apple TV remotes. Offers a lot more options, but there is a definite learning curve to using it. There is a touch pad on it that is very sensitive. Otherwise, works great.

Very thin and sleek equals fragile. Glass face and thin plastic pad equal very breakable. But the protective case. Other than that works well and easy to operate.

I needed this to replace the one my kids mysteriously misplaced. It automatically connected to my Apple TV without me having to do anything. Highly recommend, but get a cover/case for it!

It's nice that the remote is sleek but it is also small and easily broken. Had to buy purchase a new remote due to old remote had broken. The price is ridiculous it feels like robbery.
