    It's handy to have the needed buttons on a small one handed remote BUT 1) it's pretty slick and easy to drop. 2) it uses Bluetooth so the battery doesn't last anywhere near as long as the Xbox media remote does, so I wish it used a rechargeable one instead. 3) opening the battery compartment is tricky. 4) if you're ok with 1-3 than this remote is for you!

    The remote was very easy to set up, but it only gets four stars from me because the back of the remote comes off very easily, no matter how hard I press it to get it to fasten every time it comes off. So I just have to handle it very carefully. But again, the set up was very easy.

    The battery cover leaves much to be desired and it feels a little..."non-premium" compared to the other PS5 accessories, but it works well, it's sized nicely, and it matches the design well.

    I have a complicated setup with my PC , receiver and TV. Being able to grab a remote that turns on PS5 thus turning on TV and Receiver using hdmi-cec with a single button means the wife can easily stream anything when I’m not home. I personally still use my htpc but this remote has made things easy. I’d rather have a Hulu button than Spotify and also it’s not backlit though.

    I bought this remote for my son for Christmas and this little remote is amazing!!! Setup was ridiculously quick and easy! I love that I can turn on the tv and the PS5 with it and navigate both with it. I also love the quick Netflix, Disney+, Youtube, and Spotify buttons on the bottom. Makes it a lot easier to get a movie started with one touch of a button. Definitely recommend this remote!

    Best PS5 remote

    if you own a PS5 then it is a must. PS5 is not only a gaming console but also an entertainment hub. Yes, you can use the ps5 game controller to navigate the screen but this remote makes it very simple and easy to navigate the on-screen selections. The best thing I like about it is made and designed by Sony, so I know it will last and function better than other third-party remotes.
