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.

    Works great, but I wish the manual was a bit more helpful. To say that it wasnt helpful at all would not be an understatement.

    This remote works just as expected. I had to replace my original remote because it had become a chew you for my dog.

    ONE OF THE BEST PURCHASES! Sometimes I will just use my Xbox for streaming services and when I use my Xbox controller to just select a show, pause, continue to next episode, it just eats up the battery life on the controller. Having this remote saves my controller battery and works amazing! Response time is pretty much on point!
