Not a great product

Doesn’t work with Sony OLED TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife ordered the for our Sony OLED TV when the remote was lost in the move. This remote never synced correctly with the TV and we could never reach the menus or access many of this TVs features. We ended up having to get an OEM Sony remote, which ended up costing less than half of what this remote cost.

My review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was told by your sales person that it would automatically attach to any Sony TV. That was not the case. I had a tech person come in and try to hook it up and he couldn’t get it hooked up and said it was not compatible to Netflix or Comcast.

Wrong item.

Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The item itself may have been good but the sales person ordered the wrong item for us and we had to return it.

Sony universal remote
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Could get the menu to function so I could pair it. Not sure if it’s the remote, tv or me. Just frustrating.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from InsigniaCustomerSupport
Posted .Most Sony TVs should work out of the box, if a function is missing, all details to find that Menu Function is mentioned in the Manual, most of the time it would take 10 seconds to find the right Manu function via the search function, please follow up the manual guides.

Incompatible with Sony A80L
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This simply does not work with the Sony A80L. I can't even turn the set on and off. Other reviewers indicate it works with older sets, so maybe Insignia has not updated this model.
