Review on πŸ” Enhanced MINIX NEO A2 Lite Backlit QWERTY Keyboard for Android Devices with Six-Axis Gyroscope Remote, Directly by MINIX Technology Limited. by Lenny Sullivan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best remote/keyboard I've found

I have both a Raspberry Pi3 and an Android box connected to my TV and wanted a good RF USB remote to control them and After reading many, many reviews and offers I just settled on the three that looked the best: the Minix Neo A2, the Rii i25 and the OSMC remote. After using all three for over a month I keep coming back to the Minix A2 now. The front has large, easy-to-use buttons and doesn't feel overly cluttered like many other designs, leaving you with only the buttons that get constant use. On the back is the best keyboard ever, with plenty of room for all the keys and really good tactile feedback. The airmouse works pretty well but the remote control is a bit too big for long periods of time but I don't use it often and find it overkill. Pros: Good Face - All the buttons you don't need, nothing you don't need. Amazing keyboard and feels very good in hand in the landscape. Good range - I've used it out to 30ft. Cons (all very minor): IR power button cannot be reprogrammed for use with my TV. The size is a bit big if you only use air mouse. The function button is more of a toggle switch than a momentary switch. So when you press it, it stays pressed, which can make things a bit worse. I would recommend this remote to anyone who is looking for a USB remote with a built in keyboard and bought three more for friends. If you are looking for a good remote control WITHOUT a keyboard, I would recommend OSMC Kodi Remote Control.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are new competitors
