Review on πŸ“Ί Comcast/Xfinity XR11 Premium Voice Activated Cable TV Backlit Remote Control - Enhanced Compatibility with HD DVR (Motorola, X1 & X2) - IR & RF Aim Anywhere by Troy Boren

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good remote is good for remotes

Now if they could make the X1 boxes work just a tenth as well as these remotes. have this rubberized plastic that is non-slip and slides easily. This keeps the remote where I put it, whether it's on a stand or in my hand. The controls work well without a cheap toy like many cheap remote controls. I suspect this will hold up well over time as it appears to be well built. Having spent the better part of a decade fixing electronics for the emergency services, I'm pretty good at what's well made and junk, and it's NOT junk! Now if only they could apply this level of engineering and the build quality of the boxes and the programming of those boxes. Having a BIG voice-activated remote doesn't make me squat when the box and its services are Mickey Mouse garbage! Comcast at least saved money by hiring daycare programmers.

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Too long to wait
