🔊 Smartby AH59-02733B Sound Bar Remote: Compatible with Samsung Soundbar HW-K360, HW-KM36C, HW-KM36, HW-K450, HW-K550, HW-K551, HW-J4000, HW-JM4000 & More Review

Came without battery and I don't know what this remote is supposed to hold up. I looked at Walmart but when I looked at the battery specs they said the battery is 1.5 rounds and all Walmart has is 3. I didn't want to burn the remote so I still don't have a battery and who knows if it will fit my soundbar. Could have done better just using one from Walmart that gets a triple A.

The remote control itself is in good condition and works if the battery fits. This is the second remote control I've bought for the Samsung Soundbar. When you put the battery in the remote it should click and hold, which it doesn't! he jumps back. If it doesn't stay snapped into the remote then it won't work, so it's a waste of time.

These remotes have a design flaw and I don't recommend buying an extra remote if yours doesn't work. We had a problem with this remote control with our soundbar. The back was not flush with the battery causing it to come loose and not working 90% of the time. We thought it was just a broken remote but when we ordered a second one we found that the second remote was exactly the same. Now we're stuck with two remotes that don't work.

The remote control works. It's clearly not an original Samsung remote, but it does what it's supposed to do. The buttons feel more mechanical than on the original remote, and there's a bit of clatter (okay, ok, don't shake the remote). All in all, it's worth the $8 or so the dollar I spent on it. My previous remote got stuck in the couch and then my girlfriend replaced the couch with my remote which was still in it and then after months of getting up to change the volume I am happy with this…
