Customer Ratings & Reviews

I always tend to use my consoles as media devices and this remote makes the experience flawless. I just wish I could reassign the quick action buttons on the bottom of the remote to different apps, but other then that it’s a must buy.

We really enjoin the convenience of not having to use our controller for the remote. The remote works great. I love how I can go straight to whatever app i have on my remote.

It’s a good remote and easy to use, only problem is sometimes it doesn’t connect to the PlayStation right away

Greatest remote that PlayStation has made to date! They really went for a minimalist approach which I greatly approve of. Add the beautiful sleek look and and the quick access buttons to apps that I love and you have a masterpiece. This also works with my Sony TV right out of the box.

Drain this battery (they’re included) and leave your controller for gaming. Bought at standard price no issue connecting to Samsung Frame TV (2022 model) does what a remote should do. Intuitive controllers no complaints.

Feels nice. Quality. Wish it lit up so you could see in the dark, also a bit too touchy. Hitting buttons when i dont mean to. Not sure i would purchase again at that price.

very easy to use remote for playstation 5 small and goes with any remote

The PlayStation remote is very handy when I’m charging my controller highly recommend if you only had one controller

Easy to install - like incredibly easy to install. The darn thing even recognized my television brand and model and automatically configured volume control. Fits in my hand nicely. Has all the critical functions. Not as simple to use as an Apple TV remote - but close. Far better than the PS4 media remote (crazy full of useless buttons). It isn't the remote's fault, but displaying time remaining on a disc is a pain - or shall we say a hidden easter egg. The little silly three line / hamburger button shows that. And I really would have liked a slow motion button. I can do without the dedicated services buttons. But then again, those companies are subsidizing the remote, so the price is far lower than without those goofy things.

The remote is very useful and the extra app buttons make navigating menus a breeze compared to the dual sense controller

This is by far the best ps media remote ever. Has some cool features. Everyone should like. Its very easy to use and works awsome all around. Also works with any PS5. Digital or disc version.

Perfect contoller for watching media on ps5. Using the regular contoller sucks.

Works as intended. Easy to connect to console and manage my media.

Really good product to add if you have a PS4 to watch movies through your PS4.

This remote is awesome. You can turn on the TV and PS5 with this remote, and you can control volume. The dedicated buttons to go to Netflix and Disney+, etc. work perfectly and instant. Definitely pick this up if you use your PS5 as a streaming device on top of a game console.

Good remote for streaming or watching movies on the PS5. Much easier to use than the controller. Design is smaller and more compact than the PS4 media remote. Only strange thing is the shape of the back which is not flat and can sometimes spin on the table. Overall I would recommend for PS5 owners.

Just what i needed. Easy to use. Fits well in hand

What a great item, we use the playstation for everything, streaming, playing, dvds and controlers die and have to be switched out so quickly. Great to have it all in one place and works on the tv as well!

This remote makes it way easier to navigate PS5 functions when watching movies. The controls are not the most intuitive, but they are way better than trying to use the PS5 controller. I would have given it 5 stars, but it took me 20 minutes to figure out how to put in the batteries. It should be a simple process, but I felt like I was going to break the remote and then had a tough time putting the back on and getting it to stay put. Maybe it’s just me, but I think others will run into the same problem. I actually had to watch a YouTube video, which is kind of ridiculous since I’ve installed batteries on probably 100 remotes and never had a problem until this one.

This remote makes streaming much easier, but lets be honest. I don't know of many people who use their console for streaming. I wanted to use the Sony app on my PS5 for the Imax movie program so I ordered this, which granted it is easier when watching media that using your remote. The only thing I can see is that for the price, the remote feels kind of lite weight and somewhat cheap in the hands. I really love the ease of use, but unless you watch a ton of media on your PS5, for the price, I really don't see the need.
