    Waste of Money

    While the remote sort of works, I can honestly say dont waste your money on this. The microphone feature STILL doesn't work and it has been out for over a year. With Didney plus, the remote will input multiple times when you give a command. Thanks Sony for a very useless product.

    The remote will stop functioning every 30 days requiring you to reset and repair the device. Issue is widespread.

    Stop working pretty much within a month. I kept on disconnecting and wouldn't reconnect. Very cheaply made very very poor quality.

    Bought it as a Christmas present and was supposed to be here before Christmas. They sent me a completely different item and didn’t have anymore in stock. I couldn’t get one until after Christmas which ruined my plans. Terrible Service!!!

    You are better of buying the ps4 remote and using it with your ps5. This remote is useless for playing blu rays

    I’ve barely used it and it doesn’t work anymore. It is frustrating because I had it for less than a month but more than two weeks so it’s not returnable.

    Feels really cheap compared to their other accessories. Seems like an afterthought. Not a fan of the built in streaming service options but I’m sure Sony got a nice share for including that. This one’s a pass.

    Just use the old one if you've still got it (PS4 media remote). I love that thing and all of its glorious buttons (which work fully with PS5). This thing is a joke. Don't bother.
