but not as good as OE

yes it works but not as good as OE. You have to point it EXACTLY in the right place and be VERY INTENTION when you press the button. I know this is a first world issue, but it makes watching ROKU less enjoyable. I would recommend one of these just as a backup in case the real ROKU remote is lost.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • cable is shorter than other picks

No power button or volume buttons?!?

It has no power button and no volume button. The only reason I didn't return it was because my box was stolen so I digressed to find out what happened to it. I finally ordered a new Roku device and when I tested the remote I found that it doesn't have a power or volume button. I tried pressing Home to see if it acts as a power button, but no. Now I have a useless piece of plastic that I paid for. Very disappointed. I was hoping to use it as an extra remote but it's completely useless.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Security

Works perfectly! for accessories and consumables

Works great as soon as I insert the batteries correctly. I got it and rushed to put the batteries in, pointed it at my Roku and nothing. Turned on the webcam on my laptop and pointed it at the camera. saw nothing You should see a white light on the screen when you point the infrared remote control at the webcam. After trying one of my other remotes, I definitely saw a white light on the screen. I checked the batteries, I put them both in the same direction. Modified, facing camera YAY! White…

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • I don't know anymore

A real scam, the best AV accessory

I bought this partially blind because when I'm looking for a "Roku remote" I expect a really working remote that goes with a damn TV connect and control the volume. I needed a remote control, I bought the recommended one that came up. How can the product be legally sold on Revain after looking at the product page? There are no volume controls, no pairing button, and no power button. How did Revane and maybe even Roku, being partners, allow this to happen? This is literally a scam and I hope…

  • Certified
Cons
  • Hard to tell

unreliable. fits remotes and accessories

I bought this and it slipped between the sofa cushions and when I pulled it out it didn't work. I'm not sure if it worked before because I haven't used it yet. So I got myself a second one. It works, but slowly and sometimes you have to press the button several times before it responds. The phone app works much, much better, but it's awkward when the phone is connected like a Roku remote. It's also a very light plastic and appears to break easily. Sometimes the dedicated buttons lead straight…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Nothing included

Don't even waste your money on it

Don't even waste your money on it. It's garbage! When I got new batteries and put them in, they didn't work. It doesn't have a pairing button, which I knew before I bought it. The next day my son used it and it worked. Then it didn't work when we tried to use it again. If you take out the batteries, it won't work immediately, you have to wait for it to work again. I was just using the ROKU phone app until it arrived and it worked great with my ROKU 3. I went straight to the ROKU website and…

Pros
  • Sturdy workmanship
Cons
  • Was damaged

Works reasonably well, good value

Not really much to say about that; He changes the channel. It worked with my Visio TV without any problems. It's an IR remote and has the limitations of an IR remote: relatively short range, it has to be pointed fairly close directly at the Roku or nothing happens. It also has a slight lag (TV response is not instantaneous). It's smaller (not as "deep" from the front of the button to the back) than HF devices, it's lighter (looks like an empty plastic case), and it takes 2 AAA. Batteries not…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competition is here

I've read some reviews that said they don't work or only work at very short distances and don't look like OEM Roku remotes . The simple fact is that it doesn't, Roku remotes use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth frequencies in many cases and have a pairing button under the battery compartment (some not all). These remotes only use RF (old school plain simplicity) and unlike OEM units they also use 2 AAA batteries instead of 2 AA batteries so they are smaller and lighter. In the short version, I put in some…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Little things

Don't expect much

LMAO. I wasn't aware that a replacement remote was available for the Roku 1 and I literally struggled with the original remote for over a year. First I had to tap it with my palm for it to work. When it got worse, I had to remove the battery cover and, with spasmodic pressure, roll the batteries into the case. Response time to commands increased by 10 seconds and was inconsistent. I need my old £50 standard definition tv. As far as I know, Roku 1 is my only option. I'm glad to have it. But it…

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • don't remember but there was something
