    Have a gen. 1 2018 Fire TV and remote that didn't support other devices like a sound bar. Got this gen 2 remote and wala!! Able to control tv and sound bar! Works great and less expensive than an updated TV!

    Purchased as a replacement for the original I dropped on the floor. Is working o.k. and has a button for Prime video. I use quite often to bring up movies.

    This remote has worked very well right from the start as soon as I opened it and put the batteries in it worked without even having to program it. It knew right away that my TV was the one for it. What a great remote it has been fantastic since the second we opened it and used it. Thank you, Best Buy.
