Sucks, doesn’t work like it should. Worked for a week then doesn’t do anything

Stopped working after 6 months! Loved it when it worked.

Useless item yo buy. Investing your money in a game would serve you better.

We have yet to use it due too the games PlayStation plays with the release of the console

Ps5 shipped ground and taking forever, got this like 3 weeks before, not happy at all!!!

Not very useful. Still need to use the PS5 Dualsense controller a lot of the times.

Worked for only about 2 weeks and then would not connect to ps5.

Stopped working after a few months, very low quality

Worthless, volume doesn’t even work even after pairing it to your tv

Overall, the PS5 Media Remote is a handy accessory with minor issue keeping it from being highly recommended. it's very much more convenient than using the Dualsense controller when doing almost anything outside of playing a game. It fits snugly in one hand and allows for very quick navigation of the interface, whether you're watching videos or just managing settings and downloads. It's also nice that unlike some other remotes I have, the quick access buttons at the bottom are for services most people might actually use. The only real issue is that it often takes one or two button presses before the PS5 initially recognizes the remote. Once it does, you're all set for a while and it's very responsive, but it's admittedly pretty annoying having to press the PS button multiple times just to turn the system on.

Handy alternative to using a controller if you are in the mood to do something aside from gaming. It’s an improvement for watching anything really.

IF you own a SONY TV, Don't buy it. You're Sony Remote will already control your ps5. One of the reasons I chose to return mine was due to game picture mode is different from movie mode picture I want. With that said, the sony remote is easy to use, gets to apps quickly and if you don't have a sony tv, it's a total win to buy it.

Not a bad remote but some issues. The white on white makes it difficult to see the buttons in a dimly lit room. Should have had backlighting. I don’t think this remote is a necessity—the controller will do everything this remote does—it’s just clunkier to use. Designwise, it integrates well with PS5. Programming was easy, including the television. However, no real need to program it for the TV. Unless you are using the actual television speakers, it’s not going to control volume of your sound bar or audio system. It is also missing one of the most important buttons—an input button, which would make it really easy to switch between your cable box and the PS5. A huge oversight.

The PS 5 media remote works so well. I love it. It is so easy use. Then the controller. I would recommend it. Gamers should have this.

Turns your gaming system to a full entertainment system. After usinf the remote i dont use the dualshock anymore unless I'm playing a game

Very functional remote, though made more for watching streaming content than physical disc-based content (as there is no button for skipping chapters). The access panel for batteries is kind of a pain to open.

The shape and weight make it very easy to use. It provides a wide coverage range.

PlayStation does it again. Taking gaming to the next level.

Very fast shipping and great product..The remote works perfectly.

This little guy is Everything you need and more !!!!
