Review on Iinfrared Replaced Control Support NetflixVudu by Daniela Velasquez

Works great out of the box. Requires 2 AAA batteries which are not included - the original Roku 3 remote that I replaced uses AA batteries. It's an infrared remote, so you'll have to point it at the Roku, but it works really well, even from about 20 feet away. As some other reviewers have pointed out, the buttons aren't the same as those on the original Roku remote. The buttons on the original remote have a positive click when pressed, while the buttons on this remote are softer and you won't feel a click when pressed. The feel of softer buttons doesn't bother me and I'm sure it's just a personal preference for what you like best. The remote is also a little thinner, lighter, and a little cheaper than the original Roku remote. It's exactly what you'd expect for a fraction of the price of a real Roku remote. Time will tell how it holds up, but as long as your kids don't throw it across the room I think it will hold up well. There weren't any on the board. Be sure to select the correct remote when ordering as there are several different app key options to choose from.
