Works great. Easy to connect. Only downside is being so small it does disappear easy. Good deal for the price

This was unusable for my device. And it didn't pair well with my Amazon Fire TV Stick, so I had full functionality. Because of my busy schedule, I never made it back to return it, so now I'm stuck with an expensive, unusable remote. In the end, it would have been more cost-effective to purchase an original Fire TV remote. It may have been great if this worked but this was a bit disappointing.
Hello Neferista - Thank you for your feedback and for the kind words about the remote’s design—we’re glad to hear you liked the way it looks. We're sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations, and we’d like to offer some clarification that might help.
This RCA remote does not pair with devices in the traditional sense—it must be programmed using the included codes in the Owner’s Manual. For streaming devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick, this remote supports basic control via HDMI CEC, meaning it doesn’t need to be programmed for the Fire Stick itself. Instead, it only needs to be programmed for your TV, and HDMI CEC must be enabled in your TV’s settings. This allows the TV to pass commands through to the Fire Stick. Please consult your TV’s owner’s manual for how to enable HDMI CEC, which may also appear under names like Anynet+, Bravia Sync, Simplink, or VIERA Link depending on the brand. This information is noted in the Owners Manual as well.
We understand busy schedules can make returns difficult, but since this review is posted under the product itself, it directly affects the remote’s star rating rather than Best Buy’s return policy. If your experience was more about the return process, we'd appreciate it if you considered updating your review to focus on the product itself.

Worked right out of the box for my Samsung tv. The only thing is that it's not a wide beam. So you have to kinda point it to the TV
