Customer Ratings & Reviews

A great media remote to have when watching..... media. A controller can easily be used. But being able to link it to your tv is a big plus so you can play/pause as well as turn off the volume or turn on/off the tv straight from the remote. The only complaint I have is that they’re isn’t no next chapter button. Only to fast forward. So if you’re watching a movie and want to skip a whole skin. You’ll have to fast forward. Or pick it from main menu.

Sleek design and great functionality. Does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

I don’t use it at all. Could see this being useful if your PS5 were your only means of streaming/watching tv. I should’ve known that wasn’t me. It is nice and easy to use/setup, but I haven’t touched it since doing that. Still will give it 5 stars because it would be very useful and a good product, for people who would use it

amazing remote, light weight and very nice design, great features incorporated

Perfect size, App buttons very convenient much improved over previous model

I’ve had about three of these things. No fault to Best Buy, but Sony definitely cheaped in what should have been a solid remote. Frequently disconnects requiring a hard reset with the system, outdated buttons to connect to apps. I actually had one almost melt the batteries in it from some weird overheating issue. Worst part is, no real other choice than your controller. What the heck, Sony?

I regularly use my game consoles to watch DVDs and various streaming services. The Disney+, Netflix, Spotify and YouTube buttons make for an incredibly quick and streamlined experience. I do wish Sony would have included an extra button or two that could be used to launch a custom app of your choosing (Hulu or the DVD/Blu-Ray player, for example), but that's more of a nitpick.

Works really well with my PS5 Pro. It can control the TV as well such as channel and volume.

It’s a great way to maneuver through the Home Screen! You can change the volume of the TV from the remote so if you have 2 like myself, this isn’t a bad feature! I love how you can turn on the PS5 from the home button on the remote and if you’re in the mood for Netflix or YouTube, you can access it from the remote without having to do it yourself! Overall great item!

Remote is convenient when watching movies if you have disc version of PS5 and nice they added media buttons especially Disney + but just don't know how much will use when not watching a movie since most media is through tv apps and of course you could always just use the controller. Also it's nice is smaller than PS4 media remote and more stylish but I kind of liked that one better if they could have made smaller and added these new features.

I love the design and very easy to use I highly recommend it

Must have if you use your PS5 as a Smart TV/Media Center. Great quick select buttons with Netflix and Spotify for example. So much easier to use than a controller for watching shows. The battery cover could have been designed better though. It's a tad difficult to put back on.

Works really well if your a person who prefers a remote when playing music or watching movies

I picked this up on a whim as I generally don't like using the standard console remotes for media viewing. This thing ended up being a bit cooler than expected, and by turning on the console with the PS button on this remote, it will take you to the media screen by default. It also interfaces with smart TVs so you can use volume controls without your TV's default remote. Nothing truly essential, but nice to have. I would recommended it for anyone who's using a PS5 as the primary device for streaming services, things like YouTube or Twitch, and anyone who's using it as a DVD/Blu-Ray/UHD player. My only complaint would be that it takes 2 AA batteries, which are not included, instead of charging via USB-C like the standard PS5 remote does.

This was a christmas gift for my boyfriend who just recently got the PS5. It is absolutely WONDERFUL. He uses it every single time he turns on his PlayStation and has told me it has enhanced the way he uses the console greatly. I would definitely recommend for anyone considering this to get it. The shipping was also lovely and it came boxed up and in perfect condition.

Cant complain, they work really well and can commwct to the tv for volume adjustments

Great quality, lightweight and easy to use. I recommend.

Very handy device saves usage on PS5 controllers Lets you keep them charging!

Works great with new PS5. Works like it should and easy to operate.

This remote has been fantastic.. i dont have to worry about using the controller if im just watching something on netflix
