    Purchased a second edition Roku remote to replace an intermittent one for my streaming device. It was easy to pair with the device and the buttons were responsive unlike the old one. Also, the backlit buttons are very helpful in dim lighting and it's easy to recharge when needed. Would definitely recommend this Roku remote for everyone.

    Worth every pennies. The only reason I stuck with fire TV as long as I did is because of the voice activated controls. Now I have hands-free controls with the Roku and I'm thrilled.

    Works great. I like that it doesn’t take batteries and I can just charge it in with a USB cable to power it back up when necessary.

    I bought this for 2 reasons. 1: Rechargeable. This is a key feature since my Roku remotes eat up batteries. 2: To make it easier to get to an app directly instead of having to navigate the home screen. It won't really do that. The Quick Launch button pulls up two apps to pick from. That saves nothing! No way to have one default. I requested an enhancement from Roku. Other good things are the backlit keyboard and the ability to find a lost remote.

    Love for my TVs with a Roku. All remotes should be backlit. The price is higher than it should be but way better to have backlights for night viewing.

    As soon as I charged it and went in front of the tv it was for, it instantly worked; very quick response and it lights up as well. Very happy with price and quality.

    Great! A little pricey but works great. But do keep in mind this is not a direct replacement. It doesn't work immediately out of the box. You do need either access to your old remote or access to the app with wifi. i had to find another remote to connect this one because I gave my tv to a friend and lost the old remote. So since it wasn't connected to the wifi at his house i couldn't use the app.

    Expensive roku charger, couldnt set up, had to call roku support, agent #1 was no help, agent #2 walked me thru set up, using this as a second remote to my sony tv, taking some time to learn how to operate, remote not for individuals seasoned with age, i like the back light, only this remote thus far is compatible with my sony tv as a second roku remote.
