The is an excellent remote. It works well with the PS5. I was able to use when I am watching movies.

If you're planning on using your Ps5 as a streaming device, you need this remote. It makes a great difference instead of using your gaming controller to search through streaming services like Netflix or Disney+, and easier navigation to find the exact show you want to watch. A great item specifically made by Sony for use on the Playstation 5 console.

Using the PS5 controller to run your apps is so troublesome because you can't shut the controller off like the XBOX SX after your selection. The remote would have gotten 5 stars if you could access your tv's menu functions other than sound and channel selection. Still, for using to view your apps (like I do, and i have all of them instead of cable) it is a godsend especially with the quick launch buttons... Overall, make your ps5 that much more to useful. Highly recommend.

Dope remote. Looks, feel, etc... can’t complain, it does what I need it too and it does it well,

This remote works great with PlayStation I love it!

Makes your set up look even more clean. Easy use and I can use this while my controllers charge.

This remote is a must have for heavy streamers. Aside from gaming, I use my PS5 for Streaming movies and TV shows. This remote makes that experience a heck of a lot easier and smoother. It’s honestly not a necessity but more of a welcomed addition. Personally I love it and feel it’s well worth the $30 dollars. Build quality is good and works as you would expect. If you’re a big streamer then this is a must have for PS5 owners.

Good but I wish it was not a Spotify button or open to program your own shortcut. Rewind/pause/forward buttons are duplicates of the cross button, you can mistake the back button for the rewind. Sometimes you need to press PS button twice. But the design of the remote is aesthetically good otherwise.

I was hesitant at first cause i was asking myself why i needed another remote when i already have a smart tv. Well, i feel more comfortable using the playstation remote because it connected to my tv with ease, and it is way more simple to use than a standard tv remote. Sometimes the remote disconnects but i believe thats because i got a ps5,router,modem,computer,tv that all have wi-fi and the signals mix up.. but overall its great.

I picked this up on a whim as I generally don't like using the standard console remotes for media viewing. This thing ended up being a bit cooler than expected, and by turning on the console with the PS button on this remote, it will take you to the media screen by default. It also interfaces with smart TVs so you can use volume controls without your TV's default remote. Nothing truly essential, but nice to have. I would recommended it for anyone who's using a PS5 as the primary device for streaming services, things like YouTube or Twitch, and anyone who's using it as a DVD/Blu-Ray/UHD player. My only complaint would be that it takes 2 AA batteries, which are not included, instead of charging via USB-C like the standard PS5 remote does.

We love having the remote with our PS5. It’s really convenient for typing and quick access to streaming. It’s also handy to have while your controllers are charging.

A very needed accessory, it will help when you don't want to use your controller.

Great addition to ps5 setup. Quick access to Netflix, Disney+, Spotify and Hulu are great.

Bought this for my son for Christmas. He seems to love the functionality of it. Uses it on multiple TVs & the PS5. The only drawback, it would’ve been nice if they would’ve had 1-2 of the bottom buttons as programmable for optional apps. He only uses 2 of those & the other 2 are irrelevant (at least to him). Changing batteries is an absolute chore as well! Not a very user friendly design on the battery compartment.

Easy to set up and easy to use. My wife can actually navigate the PS5 and access the streaming platforms a lot easier than with the standard controller.

Great remote it’s small easy to use good size to store overall a good product from sony

Light weight, fits in hand great, I’m sure it’ll be fantastic for the PS5, highly recommend

A very fine remote. Sleek design. It controls the PS5, TV & Soundbar. Love it.

Works perfectly fine with all the channels I wasn't so sure I'd need it but it's small, compatible, and easy to store
