Replacement remotes, all 4 work

Returned 4 remotes as none worked and asked for replacements. We received them quickly and all 4 work! Thank you great price and quality.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Only available in black

Revainrating 5 out of 5

only one worked best in audio and video accessories

It fits one TV but not another. It works great for live TV but doesn't program the volume on my Emerson TV. Although they work at Walmart. I get stuck at 3 extra when I just don't want to change channels.

Pros
  • Rugged design
Cons
  • Volume

Great offer! fits remotes and accessories

I hate new DirectV remotes, they're just dumb! So I needed to find some remote controls like my old ones and it was a great suggestion! Replacing just one remote on the directv website costs $15. I got all four new remotes for $13.99. And they work great!

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Worth the money if you have a slow RC65RX

Upgrade from a previous version of the same remote that was slow to respond even with new batteries. A big improvement with these new remote controls. Now everyone reacts quickly. worth $15! The package even includes 16 batteries that are needed for operation.

Pros
  • Worth your money
Cons
  • Approximately

worked as expected - A/V accessories

They replaced all my remotes as they were over 8 years old and also some damaged or worn keys. Newer remotes are harder to hit initially because they're new, but after a few weeks you don't notice your thumb getting used to it and the buttons aren't as hard to use.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Annoying

50% Functionality is good for audio and video accessories

Good price for these remotes although 2 out of 4 didn't work. Two were fine and I use them, but the other two had issues. One had no RF output and the other was not set up for a TV. I'm glad I bought 4 packs otherwise I wouldn't have had enough to install TVs all over my house.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Appearance

Great replacement for the Genie remotes

Great replacement for the Genie remotes that came with my DirecTV service. I didn't like the Genie remotes because they have a better button layout and it's easier for me to find the buttons without looking at the remote. Remote controls are new with new batteries. Definitely glad I ordered them. I suppose I could have asked DirecTV to give me these during setup instead, but little did I know that I would hate other remotes.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Speed

Brilliant. Very important . See my programming notes

Almost in such condition that they will not work out of the box BUT I have found that all 4 need to be plugged into the receiver before use (uses program code 961). & last 6 #s Rid#, RID# is determined by the reset button on the front of the receiver). So, after some Googling and a little patience to follow the steps for each remote, we're done. They work amazing. We no longer have to worry about old sticky remote controls - we can now use RF instead of IR with our receivers. If you're not tech

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Only available in white
