Worked out of the box

Came with batteries and installed with no problems. It recognized the Toshiba TV and gave me screen codes to set it up. Yes, it has been renovated. I could see it when I opened the battery cover. Outwardly it looks better than my old one.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Piggy bank price

My favorite remote control is remote controls

This is the best remote control for Comcast. I got one without voice control when I installed my second TV and I've missed it. I like the fact that it lights up when you pick it up, although that makes it a "battery hog". I just have to remember not to hold it and wave it around.

Pros
  • Wow
Cons
  • I really don't like it everything is fine

swell remote good for remote controls

this remote replaces another xfinity which eventually broke after a few years of use. after unpacking everything was ready. To be on the safe side, program it according to the instructions that came with the device. no problem and also no problem with charging the batteries, the cover just slides out. Also, I like the lighting function when the room is dark. a large!

Pros
  • sequins
Cons
  • hard to tell

Works if you have the right version

Update Bought two remote controls as spares. One works great and the other doesn't connect to a TV but works with the Xfinity box. Works XR5 v4-R. The only one that doesn't is the XR5. The big difference between these versions is how easy they are to program. Have now contacted the seller with an offer to exchange or return the money.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons

Xfinity Comcast XR5 RF Remote Control X1 Backlit - V4-U Version

I purchased two of these refurbished XR11 remotes to replace the Xfinity XR15 remotes that came with my Xfinity X1 system were delivered. My wife and I both hated the XR15. Both XR11 remotes did not come with batteries, so you will need AA alkaline batteries for each. Both remotes paired easily with on-screen instructions for cable boxes, a 55-inch Hisense Roku TV, and another 40-inch Hisense TV.

Pros
  • I'm Keeping My Fists
Cons
  • Worries Me

Good upgrade best in remote controls

The XR5 v4-u remote is a great upgrade to the standard X1 (XR2) remote. The Enter key alone reduces the use of the other TV remote and Blu-ray player remote. The backlight is ideal for a dark or dimly lit room. Remember to pair the remote with the X1 by holding the setting for 3 seconds and then pressing the Xfinity button. So you can drive without line of sight and save the battery. Ordered from ProtechTrader who got me the remote in record time for only $8.50 compared to over $20 direct from…

Pros
  • Not just useful for intended purpose
Cons
  • Negative impression

Much better than the standard XR2 remote you get from Comcast. This remote has a rubberized finish that feels comfortable in your hand compared to the XR2's hard plastic. The backlight is unlike anything I've seen before. The backlight only turns on when the remote is picked up, unlike other backlit remotes that only turn on when the buttons are pressed. This feature alone is worth it. The side/last and info buttons are a little wide apart due to the large silver directional buttons, but I'm…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure
