    Works great as a replacement. The original remote for my TV costs $100 to replace and went a long time without using a remote. Saw this one and it worked perfectly right out of the package.

    It claims to work with all Samsung TV's, however it didn't work with mine. The remote lights up but nothing happens on my TV. Insignia's customer support was no help either.

    It’s easy to connect with my tv but you must be at certain angle or certain position in order for the remote to work. Very annoying. I would NOT recommend this controller.

    We bought this remote when we began having trouble with our older Samsung TV. It did not want to auto program. It would probably work well with a newer one

    Came in with my instruction booklet. That showed the model # of my Samsung DVD player. Salesman claimed the one he gave me would work. It didn’t ! Clearly it’s for the TV not the DVD player. It wasn’t in stock so he ordered it and I picked it up at the store. Bottom line = a waste of my time!!!!

    This was not really the remote I wanted. Supplies and suppliers were in short supply. Then, the item was ordered to pick up at the store and one hour later I was notified it was being shipped! They automatically charged me the extra fee. Then, it wasn't delivered until for more than a week. I just sent it back. A remote is something of a somewhat urgent nature if one cannot stream.

    if I could have gotten original part I would have purchased it. this is ok but it takes to many steps to get where you want to go. some of the buttons do not work for what they are labeled for. buy original if you can, insignia gave it a good try but failed in the end just with the basic functions of the remote.
