Great little remote. No install or extra plugin necessary. Just pop the batteries in and it’s ready to go. The buttons could be a little more responsive, but you can’t beat it for the price

If your looking for a relatively affordable remote for use with your Xbox. And don't mind a slightly less polished feel (literally the surface is matte not glossy), this works fine.
Pros: Affordable, works fine.
Cons: infrared not Bluetooth or 2.4g, this comes with all issues that affect ir.

Works great but it's IR so be sure to point directly at the console and I'm not able to figure out how to do more invole things in certain apps like enable/disable closed captioning in Tablo. So I'm sticking with the my shield TV for a while longer. Unfortunately the XSX can't do everything well enough for it to be my one box to rule them all
