Customers are saying

Customers value the Media Remote for its ease of use, affordability, and functionality. They appreciate the convenience of controlling their Xbox without the need for a controller, especially for streaming shows. However, some users have expressed concerns about the remote's line-of-sight requirement and the need for direct pointing, as well as its build quality and use of infrared technology.

    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
