    It is great with only one issue, when you press the power button it doesn’t always turn on. At times it will turn on a couple minutes after pressing the power button. Overall it’s great product.

    The best way to do everything else minus gaming on the PS5! If you own PS5 and want to use it for 4K blu rays or any apps (Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, etc.), then there is no better way than this! The PS5 controller is great but an actual remote is THE way to go for everything but gaming!

    I've bought my husband 1 when the PS5 first came out. Not even a year later I had to buy another one. Not even 6-8 months later he asked for a 3rd I said no. Why is there Corroding around the battery? Sony makes trash products but men still love them. Why?

    Works great! I highly recommend it for multi media app navigation. It also controls the valume and powers of your TV on and off. Worth evey penny!

    This remote is great. It’s exactly what I needed since my family has turned my PlayStation into a streaming device. Now they can watch Netflix without struggling with my remote controllers. Don’t worry about the connection, it connects just like the controllers.

    Mostly like this remote. We wanted the PS5 to replace our streaming box and this remote was an affordable option. It works great and controls everything seamlessly. I just wish the “shortcut” buttons were programmable. We rarely use YouTube, if at all, and we don’t subscribe to Spotify.

    Now that I actually have a ps5 I can say that this remote is serviceable.It’s not like the ps4 remote it’s more streamlined.They could have done without the steaming buttons in the remote not everyone has those or uses them from their ps5.If anyone can tell me where the dang eject button is on this remote that would be nice.

    Functional and easy to use, pairing the remote is simple. It’s exactly what it sounds like, a remote control for the PlayStation 5. Buttons are a little small for my liking.

    Finally was able to nab one of these and I am glad I did. Only wish that you could customize the quick jump streaming buttons. Never use Spotify, but would have liked to be able to quick jump to Hulu or HBO Max. Outside of that, it's a great companion to the PS5.
