    I spilled food on my old remote & it stopped working. This was a replacement and I am so happy I bought it because it works seamlessly with my Sony HDTV. I guess I will need to be more careful when eating my dinner while watching TV, going forward.

      We're so glad this remote was a perfect replacement for your Sony HDTV! It's definitely frustrating when a spill ruins a remote. Hopefully, this new one will last you a long time. And yes, maybe a little extra caution with the snacks and drinks during TV time from now on! Enjoy! - Carl | Insignia Products BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    This remote is very well made. Has like a matte texture and allows grip. My gusband really like the options on the remote. Good for the price, but is pricey. Link with my TV right away.

    It worked on my Sony television as soon as I put the batteries in. It does come with a list of codes for other makers. The only thing keeping it from getting 5 stars is that it didn't come with batteries.

    Paired with the TV with no issues at all, and did well interfacing with the Roku device. It also worked well as a divining rod in finding the long missing Sony remote ;-) Which is the reason for a middle of the road ease of use rating!

    I was provided this remote by Best Buy for my open-box Sony X90L as it was missing the original remote. It is functional and worked without any setup. The only thing that I don't like is the tactile feel of the button click, and its very loud click. I don't use this remote except to make adjustments as I primarily use an Apple TV 4K box and its accompanying remote.

    The device works as well as the original brand, except for one thing. The signal doesn’t hop over the sound bar in front of the tv set to change stations or volume like the original did. Do we have to hold the remote up high in the air to use it for changes..

    The remote for Sony TVs works flawlessly, and it does have more buttons than the cheap unit that came with the TV (specifically FF and rewind) but the programmable buttons for functions of my choosing are difficult to set up and are clunky to operate. The instructions are laughably inadequate.

    Worked exactly as expected. Just turned it on and it found our Sony TV. (Found out the hard way that some cheaper remotes are both a pain to program and then need reprogramming any time the battery dies.) This is how all remotes should work.
