Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very very handy to consume media in the PS5, instead of draining the life and battery of the Dualsense (which is very fragile tbh). It could have had a backlight to it, but that’s a feature for another day I guess. Overall a handy thing to have if you use your PS5 to watch Netflix or other streaming services or as a bluray player.

This remote makes my life watching TV on my PS5 much easier

Now I can let my Playstation controller charge while I can use YouTube or Netflix.

Small and lightweight and easy to program to PlayStation and TV

So this is a great remote. It has certain functions that are dedicated to Netflix, Disney, etc., but I love watching Netflix, Hulu, Blu-Rays and it makes life easier. Great Spots: 1. Fast Forward and Rewind Blu-Rays, etc. 2. Use as a remote fr Netflix, Hulu, etc. on non game nights. 3. Decent Battery Life. Only downfalls are: 1. No backlight 2. Sometimes TV functions don't work at all. Like cannot power on TV until PS5 is on... and then sometimes I need to just use the TV remote.

Great little accessory for the ps5. Makes watching ultra hd blue ray discs a breeze for none technical users.

This thing is great! It's sleek, feels good in your hand, and has almost everything you'd need on it. After syncing it to your PS5 you can turn the console on and off with this remote and you can use it for everything but playing games. The quick launch buttons are great, though I wish they allowed you to customize what was on the remote. I use 3 of the 4 services, but if you don't have any of them half of the remote becomes useless. Overall this is a good addition if you plan on using your PS5 as a media center half the time you turn it on.

I’ve been using it since the PS5 came out. Never had any issues with it and is really handy especially if you want to leave your controller charging while you watch Netflix.

Controller works great, however the batteries last a bit less than I would have thought. Also, sometimes if I power on the PS5 with my controller, it won't let me use my remote for media unless I turn the controller off. If I power the system on with my remote, all is good. This may have been fixed in a recent update. It was also a bit finnicky to remove and replace the battery cover. I never knew if it was properly back on or not.

Honestly Sony did a great job with this remote. Feels great in the hand, and the app shortcuts are super handy. Honestly I don't think there's any other media remotes out there, and with this one existing there really isn't a need for anything else.

Love the way it works with my tv and entertainment center as a whole! I replaced my actual tv remote with this

Very functional remote, great design makes it easy to use while playing or watching streaming services

Great product the remote is very easy to set up and is light weight and has a very nice touch and design

[Employee of bestbuy] You wouldn't think you might want one of these but it has been so nice not having to pull out the nicer, more expensive controllers to do non-gaming stuff. No longer have to worry about a controller getting left on the couch and messed up or falling or whatever. Very nice.

Super light, small remote. I like that I can use it separately from the controller to navigate apps.

It is a great purchase for someone that hates to have to use the controller to watch Netflix, Hulu, etc...

Cool ps5 media remote , works with all the apps on ps5 , good for scrolling too and playing apps

Works seamlessly with PS5 perfect size along with instant access to top streaming services is a plus

I bought it for my grandson as a gift to go with his PlayStation 5 and his review is: "The remote makes watching Disney + and Netflix really easy to access. It also makes Spotify easy to access as well. Everything is just one button away! That sure makes it a lot easier than having to look for any particular app! It's definitely better than any media remote than I've had before! I think it's convenient and Sony put some thought into it!"

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