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.

This remote is terrible. You still have to use an Xbox remote because you can't control everything from the remote. If I had a better option I would have bought something different.

There's a huge delay in pushing the button and it actually working on the console. Sometimes you need to push a button 5 times for it to actually register. It's incredibly annoying. The input lag is horrendous.
