Review on πŸ“Ί NH500UP Replace Remote for Philips TV Models: 50PFL5601/F7, 65PFL5602/F7, and more! by Nathaniel Collins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Real reviews for people who want the truth.

So I still have the original Philips TV remote control. and I made a direct comparison.1. You will immediately notice that there is no Philips branding on the remote control2. You will then find that you are missing a few buttons (may vary from TV to TV with different remote controls). I'm missing the SAP button and CC button which are on the Philips remote next to the home button near the center of the remote. 3. You will find that the colors of the buttons are different, for example, the Netflix button and the VUDU button are different colors, and you will find that the printing of the letters is different. You will notice that the color of the buttons and the names of some of them are different from Remote Control 5. Where you see the colors on the remote control (RED, GREEN, YELLOW, BLUE) you see on the new Amazon remote control (APP1, APP2, APP3, APPENDIX4) 6. There is no Philips trademark on the remote control. So if you know Philips, you'll know right away that it's a generic product.7. MAJOR DIFFERENCE The battery compartment has a large sliding door and the batteries are placed next to each other with a traditional remote control, with a well-known Philips brand the batteries are placed one behind the other.8. WHERE THEY ARE MADE! The Philips remote control is made in Thailand. There is no label on the universal remote as to where it was made, but it is a copy with minor modifications. Sounds like a Chinese fake. But overall the remote works, you don't get all the options you get with Philips but it works well enough to turn on the TV and turn up the volume. So overall, if you don't mind these things, it's not a bad buy.
