Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the ease of use and functionality of this replacement remote for Sony TVs, finding it a great replacement at a good price. Many appreciate its compatibility and that it works well out of the box, closely mimicking the original remote's design and button layout. However, some customers noted that the button placement could be improved.

      Hi.

      I know the feeling of not being able to get something to work easy and seamlessly. Be aware that the issue could be coming from the TV, if the built-in IR sensor goes bad no remote will work with it. We are always here to help you and thanks for your preference.

    garbage, but it works.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Yes, it totally works with my sony TV. That's great. The button layout almost makes me wish it didn't though. This isn't 1995, I don't really care much about a full number pad, I care about the directional buttons...which are hard to use. The outer ring of 5 buttons are not ones you need as often, and tend to be ones that interrupt whatever you are doing (like a home button), but it's that small inner ring pushed up against it that really matters. However I have to try to tap them with my finger tip, or I hit the outer buttons. Whoever designed that should be embarrassed. As soon as I find a better replacement, I'm throwing this away. -5 stars for being frustrating and hard to use. +3 stars because it does what it says on the box: work with my sony TV.

    Works great, lots of buttons, JP1

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Works fine, has all the buttons needed for smart TVs. Perfect for Sony, also has JP1 header inside so it can be reprogrammed for other brands using a USB to serial cable, search JP1 for free software. My only dislike is the direction ring is too crowded between the outer ring of buttons.
