Review on πŸ“Ί TiVo BOLT with VOX Remote by Kevin Greer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great voice! But maybe you don't like the changes in the GUI.

Speech recognition is perfect! I had to add a large microphone button, which led to editing the button layout on this remote. But you can customize. This is a small change. The changes affected the graphical interface. When I connected my remote to the Tivo Bolt, nothing happened for two days. The graphical interface remained the same and the VOX function did nothing. On the third day, the GUI changed. The GUI is not very similar to the old one. And for some things, it's even increased the number of key presses required to complete some tasks. But if you use VOX, it's flawless. And for the most part I really like it. I can't give five stars because of the GUI. It's just not as friendly as it used to be. How simple. How easy to read. I hope they get enough complaints to figure out a way to bring the GUI back to where it was before the change. If you're adaptable, you'll love this remote control. If you want to keep the GUI without VOX. This remote control is not for you. That is different. But good anyway.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some disadvantages
