    Our puppy chewed our original remote so we needed a new one ASAP. This works perfectly. It was extremely easy to set up and the charge seems to last a long time. We have been using it over a month, and have not had to recharge it yet. A great replacement if you want to rely less on batteries, or if your pup decides to use yours as a chew toy!

    I purchased this product for the backlit feature. My old remote was not a voice remote, this is also a great feature. Of course having it being rechargeable is a bonus!!

    It there such a thing as "favorite remote", this would be it! This remote is ten times better than the factory version. I love the find remote and rechargeable features! I also love that the buttons light up.

    Remote Needs Some Improvements

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    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.

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

    Control lights up when buttons are pressed or when you ask Roku. Also has a fast charge and long lasting battery. I love scrolling the guides and watching previews. For me the price was pretty good and I don't have to worry that I have to buy regular batteries that are so expensive today.

    Roku rechargeable Remote control, works great, works with our Roku enabled TV, was sold to replace the missing Roku remote control which came with the TV, and worked right out of the box. Great product at a great price.

    I have it for my bedroom use which is so helpful in the dark watching tv before switching to music on YouTube to go to sleep on. I can see all the buttons on the remote to get to where i need to go. Often dont turn lights on in the evening in the living room either so its a pain to get up to light to see that remote there. I will probably buy another after christmas for the living room...unless i win this 400 bucks!!

    It replaced the original remote control on a Roku TV. It was very simple to set up and is much easier to use with the backlit keys and voice control. I would recommend it to others.
