||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item was great with the exception that it did not go back to the previous screen in YouTube, instead went to the main YouTube screen. It could also be that our smart tv is kind of old.
