Revainrating 4 out of 5

Spend a whopping $5 and get the real bargain instead

It does exactly what it's supposed to do. For about a couple of weeks. It is made entirely of very inexpensive plastic. When it first falls from a 2-foot coffee table to the floor, you'll hear various parts dangling inside. After a few weeks, you'll notice the face looking clunky, followed by menus and pause/play buttons starting to stick, forcing the user to press harder, rendering the device almost unusable. Worst of all though, they charge over $15 for a cheap plastic POS remote that probably costs less than $1 to make. Visit the Apple Store (online) instead, spend $5 more, and get the original. Apple is shipping a brand new $19.99 AAPL TV/w Remote Case with free shipping. I ordered a new Apple TV remote from the Apple Store on Monday, received it the next day, and this cheap piece of plastic was immediately thrown into place. Garbage! Spend another $5 (not much) and buy a real one. Not some cheap fake costing over $15.
