Review on [2 Pack] Anti Slip Remote Protective Case Compatible For Apple TV 4K 4Th Generation Siri Remote Controls - Pinowu Silicone Skidproof Shockproof Cover Skin For TV 4 4K Remote (Red Orange) by Floe Rankin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works as described but is not true, just like the 4th gen Apple TV remote

Silicone is very soft, pleasant to the touch but breaks very easily when used with heavy hands becomes. The lanyard/strap is a good idea but doesn't work well with very easily torn/soft silicone so I didn't use that and used the Apple strap instead. It has a distinct VOC odor, which isn't a big deal, but I noticed it right away. This product is well presented and certainly tries to fill a potential need to protect a $60 Apple TV remote from a fall and the price is quite affordable if you can afford an Apple TV at all, the performance of the However, the product is not ideal. I've tried purple and orange and they fit well and look great, and they don't interfere with the buttons as some other reviews have pointed out, suggesting that slight production quality changes may mean some covers are thinner. I highly doubt that the problem is with the Apple TV remote. All of this if you think you can drop a $60 remote and break it due to heavy use (or have kids) it might be worth it, but only a kid would put up with it. Inconveniences that are inherited in the design. That's good, but not great, and dragging my finger across the scrollbar with the lid closed was less efficient than when the lid was off. It has a lot of neat little things and I was willing to try it for $7 but ultimately decided NOT to use it. I prefer the 3rd gen Apple TV remote (clicker, all silver aluminum) much more than the 4th gen Apple TV remote, so I bought a replacement 3rd gen remote direct from Apple as a backup rather than one Case to use for the 4th. a generation remote control that's more frustrating than enjoyable. I will not be returning them and I plan to donate them in a situation where they can find a good home that appreciates the concept and design of the 4th generation Apple TV remotes. I'll skip this one (3 stars) but only because the sandwich would cost more and be healthier for me. I would not buy it again nor would I recommend it.

Pros
  • Useful beyond its intended purpose
