    This remote is wonderful. It is better than using the remote from the actual gaming system to browse media. I highly recommend this remote if you want to easily search for movies on Netflix, Disney, or Any other service.

    Good accessory for your PS5, but my biggest gripe, especially since most of the buttons are flush with the controller (even though there are small markers on them), is it not being backlit. Therefore, many times, while playing at night time, you have to put the lights back on, or revert to the controller, which really makes it useless by then. This will happen a lot until you force yourself to learn the buttons by heart. This is unfortunate, since you can purchase backlit universal remotes with much more buttons for one-third of the price. You will also find yourself losing this a lot under the couch cushions. Besides this big flaw, it is very very easy to setup, and I hope Sony can make a 2nd generation with the light features.

    Oh man, i love this thing so much as the woman of the house. We now have one for every game system. So you know how you have to actually hit the play station button on the controller and wait for it to power up and think about its personal endevors? Yeah this remote has no endevors to think about, you just push the button and boom youre moving. It has a button to move and select instead of the toggle thing moving your cursor over 52 spaces when you only want to go one and hitting every other button to sepect something. Plus it fits in my smaller hands very well.

    Remote works amazing. Batteries does in two weeks first go but replacements have lasted longer so probably just bad batteries.

    This is a excellent gaget to have in your gaming arsenal, it takes you down to a social level when you have company over and want to use the console but yet still have the nostalgic feeling of watching tv with a basic remote. I think it helps because it brings you away from a gaming experience to more of a social / media experienc. Its quick actions are great and the build quality is fantastic. However for me i will say the buttons feel a little spaced apart and would be much easier if the design brought them in just a little, overall a fantastic product still.

    Responsive little remote, mainly got it to save battery of my remotes for gaming and cause it gets annoying when you press a button on a gaming remote and a menu pops up during a movie or activity.

    Excellent little remote. I don't really use my PS5 for entertainment options but I got the remote for completeness sake. I also bought the PS3 remote way back when so go figure...

    It's lame that Sony doesn't use a format so a regular remote can work with a playstation. This remote does the job just fine. It's a good size.
