Sony - PlayStation 5 - Media Remote

I really thought this little guy was trivial, but I was so wrong. Provided you have HDMI linking all set up this little remote does it all! Turns my TV on separately if desired, obviously the PS5 unit and even controls the volume on my receiver. First time setup and initial 4K disc playback was a tad clunky, but after that it was a breeze and this comes in super useful so you can control media how you want with it and save the juice in your game controllers rightfully for games. Gone are the days of accidentally bumping the game controller. Thank you Sony for not only making this, but for releasing it Day 1 too. I tested the pre-populated function buttons too like Disney Plus and it took me directly to Disney Plus on the PS5 so I could instantly start enjoying the newest episode of The Mandalorian. What more could you ask for?!!!

Very nice addition to ur ps5. It was smaller than I expected, but it’s big in what it can do. The one touch buttons are nice. If you wanna watch Netflix just push the button and within seconds you are at the menu. It has some buttons that aren’t working yet (like the mic button on top) but will be a new feature in future updates. Even what I say doesn’t do it justice. Until you have one are are holding it in your hands you will not realize how cool this remote is. I would highly recommend it. Only thing is that I wish they would’ve made the buttons have the backlit feature so that you can see it if there is little to no light.

This remote is a great add on for your PS5 especially if you plan on using any of the installed streaming apps. It has integrated buttons on the remote for Disney Plus. Netflix, YouTube and Spotify. I also love the small compact size which is different from the PS3 and PS4 larger sizes and the white color goes perfectly with the PS5.

The PS5 remote is decent enough on paper. It is a remote that syncs to your playstation 5 and your TV if it allows that. And really as far as that the remote is fine. It has a few specific channel buttons on it(netflix, disney+, YouTube, and... spotify) which work but might not really be the stream choices some might personally choose making the buttons useless. However if you plan to stream off your PS5 and don't want to have your controller battery used for non gaming moments this will be the best device for you.

Happy I got it! Use it all the time. Should be very helpful for those who use the streaming services on PS5 and dont want to keep the DualSense around all the time to navigate through the menus including the PS Store.

Since PS4 I wanted a media remote for my console. This is one feels like an extension of the PS5 and is amazing have one so my Dualsense saves battery.

Never had a 4k bluray player b4 so i knew id wsnt this for ps5, awesome remote capabilities and pleasing shap and hand ergonomics.

It’s a good product. It works with Sony tv though it won’t replace standard remote. It is a little slippery and no back light.. but decent product.
