I’m very glad I got this remote instead of the one it came with. This one has the volume up and down button and the voice recognition is excellent.

Replaced my old Roku remote with this new device. Love that it lights up when in use, the voice option when looking for something to watch, and the fact it’s rechargeable. Charge lasts a long time.

Love this product. My recliner has a usb port that I plus the remote into to charge over night if I want. The battery life is pretty decent so far. I ended up purchasing one for our bedroom TV and my son’s TV. Nothing is worst than when your kid uses all the AAA’s when you need it.

I had issues with the factory received remote . So I ordered this remote and boy am I glad I did. I haven’t had one problem with this remote since I bought it 3 months ago. The rechargeable battery last a long time and recharges fast. The voice option makes it even easier to find your choice also cut down time typing in what you are looking for.

I’m so glad to have purchased this item. The lights on the remote makes it easier to see the controls. The charge lasted a month. I brought it on 9/24 and charged the controller 10/31.

It's a remote. It does what remotes do. I use it to control my Roku TV. Haven't had any issues with it, which is good. I do like the backlighting feature whenever I touch it, so I guess that's something. lol

Works absolutely flawless..turns on my TV and NOW can be re-charged via a USB-C cable like ALL my laptops, cell phones, etc. It even has a back light and I no longer have to hunt for AA Batteries. I love things that simply work!

Remote Needs Some Improvements

I have two issues with these particular remotes. The first is the backlighting. If you're the type of person that holds your remote while watching TV (and isn't that the majority of people?), then you're probably going to have the same issue with the backlight CONSTANTLY turning on and wearing down the battery. I find that I have to recharge the remote every 10 - 14 days. And it's not exactly fast charging. On the upside you can at least use the remote while it's charging. I'd rather have a key to press that will turn the backlight on as opposed to having multiple macro keys that I never use.
The second issue is with the keys. I ordered this replacement remote because the one that came with my BRAND NEW Roku Ultra required a hard and exact press of the directional (up,down,left,right) and enter keys. If you did anything other than a hard press it wouldn't work, but instead of repackaging everything and sending it back I just ordered a replacement. It worked much better at first, but has now begun to have the same problem. It's beginning to require a hard press of the keys.

Replaced my original remote with the "Voice" Remote and it honestly comes in handy. Giving short commands literally makes it easy to watch, play, pause, and search. And it glows!

The remote works great. The advantage of buying at Best Buy was the customer service. A gentleman helped me out with the purchase which took the guess work as to if it would work with my SONY TV. When I went to purchase from AMAZON it didn't make it clear if it would work with a SONY & I had to send them back to AMAZON. Very please with the remote & the customer service at Best Buy.

Some nice improvement over the stock remote, mainly the backlighting. The removal of the heasphone jack keeps this from being a 5 star review.

Super easy to install & connect. Seemed like this would be more complicated with additional steps but went fast and the Roku TV actually did most of the steps for us. Even better! Lights up great at night.
