Great Remote
- Pros: Controls multiple devices, accesses more functions than I expected with an after market remote. Lightweight, cool design. Great looking menu driven LCD screen.
- Cons: Haven't been able to program for my Aiwa 5 disc CD changer. It asked if I had the orighinal remote, unfortunately I don't. Have yet to call customer support. Not too worried, I don't listen to many CD's
- Other Thoughts: I have a very new TV and was very surprised that this remote was able find codes for some of the more advanced features that the tv has. Overall, very pleased with the remote. User tech level may need to be a bit higher than you average Wally World universal remote, but worth while if you have the patience to learn to use it.
Great Remote
- Pros: It's awesome having just one remote to control all my devices! This really makes it easier for the kids and my wife. This remote with one button (Watch TV) will - turn on the TV, set it to the right input, turn on the receiver and put to the right input. Same with Watch Blu-ray, Watch DVD, etc.
This makes having a home theater very simple for my kids.
- Cons: Some of the buttons could be better - one of them you really have to push hard. Other than that it's awesome.
- Other Thoughts: If you have a PS3 - you need another device since the PS3 is bluetooth. I got the Nyco BluWave remote for $20. I don't need the remote - just the PS3 adapter which is an IR adapter. Then the Harmony remotes and do most operations on the PS3 (cannot Power on though).
Disappointing
- Pros: Looks nice, bright back-light, nice weight and feel.
- Cons: Have to use Activities to turn devices on, unnecessarily complicated and simplistic at the same time.
- Other Thoughts: Apparently I was under the wrong impression when purchasing this remote. I simply wanted to replace an old TV remote and thought this would be more than sufficient, and have the benefit of being able to download commands from the internet instead of using an old remote (since the old one was broken). I had no need for controlling multiple devices or programming activities. I simply wanted it to work like the old remote: Power toggles the power on and off, volume up and down, channel up and down, etc. Unfortunately this is not how the remote works. The power button on the remote ONLY turns things off, it does not toggle the power on, so you HAVE to program an Activity just to turn your TV on. Very frustrating and not very useful for my needs. I'm amazed that this doesn't have an option to work like any old remote. With all this thing can do, what seems like such basic functionality is completely lacking, therefore 1 star for the lack of oversight.
