    I was skeptical to buy this remote. And the OEM ones for samsung are way too expensive as if they were parts of a spaceship. So i took a chance and ordered this remote. And it has taken a few falls and functions just great. I love the backlit keypad for dimmed lighting and also when you are just getting used to handle this remote until you know the keys like the back of your hand.

    The device met my limited needs. The instructions included with the device made it easy to program it as needed. Only negative is that it is overkill for my needs at this time.

    Good Value for a Learning Remote

    Good universal remote as the learning function is helpful as long as you have the original remote. While it does not compare to the (now discontinued) Harmony remote and does not have a screen, it is an important backup for an original remote.
