Review on Samsung Smart TV Remote Controller Case - BN59 Series, Slim Silicone Cover Protector, Shockproof & Anti-Slip Remote Skin Sleeve - Green Glow in The Dark by Jose Schweigert

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Turns the TV on/off on some models

Pros: Lid looks very nice, fits the remote control* as advertised (but see below), feels good and has a good grip and keeps the remote clean Children's fingers (on in any case the parts it closes). One of the reasons we bought these is because our little ones broke the front cover on our previous remote after repeatedly dropping it. It seems to work just enough to keep it from slipping out of your hands so easily, although I don't expect it to offer a ton of protection then. (Again, this is a $4 flexible silicon, not an Otterbox.) However, it does keep the back cover and batteries from flying across the room in this case, so at least it's a win! Cons: My only real complaint/warning is that our particular remote (Samsung OEM version, BN59-01241A) has buttons (play/pause, back and power) that are flush with the remote body, meaning that they are not a separate raised button like many similar models and generics. . They have a small Braille-like protrusion, and in the case of the power button, you basically press the top-left corner of the remote to turn the TV on or off. This results in the case accidentally pressing down on that small protrusion all the time, which is incredibly frustrating. (For example, you reach for the remote, but this action shifts the body just enough that it sometimes pushes against the cornice.) I'm sure this isn't a problem for remotes with raised buttons, as they all look far enough away from the edge for the case to grab the edge but not touch the keys. So be aware that if you have this type of remote control, it could also be a problem for you. If not, I am sure you will be very satisfied!
