I've tried other remotes but this is the one.

This product may not have a number pad, but it is worth the price. I've tried Microsoft brand remotes, they light up but drain the batteries so quickly. I tried several third party remotes, they wore out in less than a week. This is my second remote for my second Xbox. The first is still going strong after 6 years.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

More convenience for accessories and consumables

We now use the Xbox One for most of our video streams. With this remote control, it became much more convenient! It doesn't go to sleep, so pausing a movie is instant, scrolling the menu is easy, and the battery life is great. I highly recommend doing this to make your streaming easier. The only downside is the lack of consistent markings, no "X,Y" to get used to. buttons, but the functionality is there.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Some problems

I love its small size

I read and looked at several reviews online before choosing this remote control for XBox One. I like its small size, extra buttons (power and eject that aren't on the original remote) and a slim shape. It feels good in my hand and has a long range. It runs on two AAA batteries and is the perfect remote control. The signature remote control has a curved back, while the Nyko has a flat back. The buttons are brighter illuminated than the branded remote control. All in all, this is a great XBox One

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Works and I didn't have to buy a $25 Microsoft Remote

Pros: works. I think it has all the features of the Microsoft version. Works well 18ft from my Xbox. I had trouble launching Netflix but now it works. (Try pressing the power button on the remote after Netflix starts up if that doesn't work at first.) Works with Blu-ray, DVD, Netflix and Revain Video, Xbox Navigation and Settings! Price! Half the cost of the Microsoft version. Cons: IR (line of sight signals) but decent transmission quality. I can't use volume buttons without a Kinect. No codes

  • Best
Cons
  • Durable

Works perfectly! Very happy.

Works great! I was a bit hesitant to purchase this item as it was not a "famous brand" but I am incredibly satisfied. This item arrived quickly and professionally packaged. It was very easy to set up and started working right away after I put the batteries in. Just point it at your Xbox One, press the power button and *puff*, done. It is very delicate and made of high quality plastic. This makes navigating the Xbox One menus much easier, especially if you are using video/streaming services on…

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Thin

Do not buy from audio and video accessories

I bought this remote so my wife can use Netflix and Amazon without opening the xb1 app. This only works if you point the remote directly at the console and hope you press the button hard enough. The remote is fine as long as you don't need to fast forward or rewind, as you'll surely spend seconds stopping functions while your movie or TV show rewinds until you go to the console and point the remote at 5ft. I had to spend an extra $12 and buy the original remote. Super annoyed. The only reason I

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Very expensive

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

Pros
  • Xbox One

  • Unbelievable price

Great, a must for streaming on Xbox.

We recently cut the cord in our house so the Netflix and Prime video is for us. We watch it a lot on the Xbox and get annoyed with having to turn on the controller every time it asks us if we're still watching or if we need a break in the show. At first we considered getting a Kinect so we could order it, but the price didn't seem worth it as we'll likely never get a game that needs it. We originally found a Microsoft branded remote that had some terrible reviews and was overpriced but this one

Awesome Remote Control

Let's debunk the distance issue first. I think it depends on what unit you have. I have 2 FLIRC IR receivers connected to a Chromebox and a laptop. The keys are perfectly programmable to my liking and the spacing is fantastic. Not only does it have a long range wherever I stand, it also has an amazing IR range. Usually you have to point the remote control at the receiver to start the transmission. However, I can put it face down on the sofa behind my back and still have perfect functionality…

Pros
  • Video Games
Cons
  • Not Sure
