This is definitely a simple remote, nothing fancy, but it gets the job done well. Perfect size (unlike some remotes for the system), works great and is very responsive. For the price it is a must if you own the Xbox One.

This remote is nice to have when watching movies or streaming videos, as the standard controllers power off after not being used for a while. This remote is always on and you do not have to wait for it to power back on to pause or search. Only downside is that due to the optics it must be pretty much straight on for the signal to reach the xbox. All in all a worthwhile purchase.

This remote works well. One of the nice things is that you don't have to turn it on first, like you do the controllers, it's always ready to go. It works well for navigating the menus, watching netflix/hulu, etc.

Pause Play Weirdness

This is very similar to the Microsoft version. But I would recommend spending the extra money for the Microsoft one. The problem is with the Pause and Play button. If you want to pause or play you have to hit the pause/play button and the big round center button for it to work. Pressing pause/play simply pops up a menu.

This is nice to have so dont always have to turn on controller. I went w/ this as I like Insignia products. Only reason I did not give it 5 stars is due to you have to be aiming it directly at the XBOX One power light for it to work. Depending how i am sitting on the couch watching Netflix etc... it's difficult to use and get the proper angle at it.

I bought this remote so my wife and I would have our own remote so we didn't have to search for the one. I have had no trouble with the new remote. Works as good as the original.

I love using this very simple remote when I am watching movies on my Xbox one. It's not too big with a bunch of extra buttons and it's not too small to get lost easily.
