DO NOT RECEIVE THIS REMOTE CONTROL

This remote sucks, it won't connect to the TV until I press the buttons a billion times. I think it should reconnect to the TV every time I press the idk button. I got this as a replacement and it has only made using my TV that much more frustrating. Don't buy this remote just download the stupid app because you shouldn't have bought it.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Some trouble

Works without programming 😁😁😁😁😁

After months of use, you have to press the buttons damn hard for it to respond to a command. It's not about the batteries as we have used several new batteries from different brands for several months to fix them. It's already programmed, which is handy, but if you have to click your finger to get it working, then what's the point.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Volume

Works perfectly! Worked as soon as I put the batteries in.

New remote left (old right). Annoyed that my new Toshiba TV remote stopped working after less than a year. The new remote works great! I unpacked it, put the batteries in and it worked right away. Very happy with this purchase - the only difference is that the new primote doesn't have a voice control button. But for the price you need it!

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Uncertain

Works great with my Toshiba Fire TV.

I ordered these because the remote control that came with my Toshiba TV when I bought it (2 years ago) showed sticky key syndrome. It still works and I hung up on it (in an emergency) but now I mostly use it. I agree with most people that sometimes you have to press the buttons more than once to wake up the remote and then perform the function, but if anything it's just a minor annoyance and not a deal breaker. And it worked great as soon as I turned it on - no pairing/configuration required…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Great replacement!

Update: 8 months old and still works if you break your fingers pressing the buttons. Even then, you need to press hard and hold for a few seconds. Very frustrating. While it seemed like a win for the price, we'll now have to look around for a better remote. Disappointing. On Sunday we adopted a new dog. On Thursday she was chewing on the original remote control from our Toshiba Fire TV. Using the Fire TV app on the phone made watching possible but annoying so this remote saved the day and was…

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Almost never

"Remote Not Recognized "

I bought this remote to replace the original remote that came with my 49" Toshiba Fire TV as several reviews suggested it was becoming less and less out of sight slipped. Not so; anyway it's smaller! It's easier to use; The mute button is much more accessible and very responsive. However, every time I use it, it works great and my selected program plays for maybe two minutes, then quits and "No remote detected" comes up on the screen. This happens every time I use it, and even though the show…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Working

Worked immediately! Excellent purchase!

Nice surprise, looks and works better than the original remote that came with my Toshiba FireTV Edition. I can't stay on a channel without switching to Netflix. I've tried resetting the TV to factory settings and wiping it completely, but that still didn't help. Luckily I had another Toshiba FireTV in another room in my house so I thought I'd try the remote for this TV with the one that behaves. I had to manually program the remote and pair it with my broken TV (because I couldn't access the…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Speed

No pairing! Literally works instantly!

For reference I have a Toshiba Fire TV model 50LF621U19. Long story short, a few weeks ago the batteries on my old remote control (right) died and I kept getting a notification on my TV screen letting me know. I decided to just wait for the rest of the juice then I'll change the batteries when they run out. Well, my remote had other plans, and one day the remote literally exploded on me. The back end bounced and it sparked and it made a loud noise. Needless to say, the remote barely worked…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things
