Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Enhance Your Xbox One Experience with the Nyko Media Remote by Charles Butler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Keep your controller charged for gaming, great for multimedia use!

We use the Xbox One as a gaming machine, but even more as a multimedia tool. We use it most often to watch Netflix or SlingTV. This remote worked right out of the box - no syncing or setup required. There's a slight learning curve, but the buttons are easy to pick up on with minimal use. The remote is a little light and cheap, but still feels solid enough to withstand falls from low heights, like waist height. The light on the bottom flashes every time you press a button and as a man I find the pretty light effects amusing. applications if they are not working properly). While I see many complaints, the unit had volume buttons and it worked out of the box with my Phillips Magnavox home theater system. I didn't use the channel up/down buttons. The biggest benefit is that I can leave my Xbox One controller on the charger for actual gaming use. The main disadvantage is the sensitivity. I'm about 6 feet from my Xbox One with few if any obstacles and sometimes it takes a few clicks to get it working. For the price and functionality, I'm still a satisfied buyer.

Pros
  • Xbox One
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
