PDP Universal Gaming Media TV Remote Control for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Officially Licensed for Microsoft Xbox, Motion Activated Backlight, Compact Navigation Toggle, Battery Optimized

Best Xbox one remote out there. I Bought this September 2024 and the only reason I'm replacing is because I've lost the darn thing. The buttons aren't hard for me to push, the batteries last a long while before having to change them out. It goes with standard or recharge batteries. When trying to replace my lost one, I ordered the solar chargeable new version it never worked right out of the box. I charged it twice and still never worked. Then I went back to the reviews and changed the settings to newest reviews, a LOT of people had the dead remotes sent to them. I returned the newer model next day. I will just stay with the proven working model. It works my tv volume and all menu functions. Best Xbox series remote out to date.

I usually prefer using my cable box for streaming my shows, but during the summer time that’s a huge disadvantage because in southeastern Colorado we can get extremely severe storms considering we’re part of Tornado Alley and we can get nonstop weather alerts every few minutes and every time that happens it interrupts the stream and disconnects it and it takes 3 minutes to log back in, browse to the show and resume it. So during the summer I prefer using my Xbox but the controller is a huge battery eater and I prefer leaving it off but then that makes it problematic when I want to pause or rewind my show. This remote was a life saver. I was concerned about the volume buttons considering my TV is one of the earlier models of the HDTVs but surprisingly I was able to get it synchronized. The only downside is that when I want to switch from my Xbox to cable, my TV automatically turns off when my Xbox turns off too. Oh well, small price to pay for not having to use two different remotes. The backlights are also a huge advantage and they’re not too bright or too dim. But just be aware that this remote is for the media apps ONLY! It cannot be used for actual gaming (I tried). So if you’re looking for a reliable alternative to using the controller when streaming or using media-based Xbox apps, look no further!!

Ah, the classic tale of "shoulda, woulda, coulda" and the perils of skipping those crucial reviews. I, too, have been a victim of this particular brand of tech-related disappointment. It seems I've joined the ranks of those who fell prey to the allure of this Xbox remote, only to discover its infrared limitations. Let's cut to the chase: this remote is a perfectly functional piece of equipment. It does what it says on the box, providing a comfortable and convenient way to navigate your Xbox. The buttons are responsive, the layout is intuitive, and it feels sturdy in the hand. If you're looking for a basic, reliable remote for your Xbox, this will certainly do the job. However, and this is a big "however," the reliance on infrared technology is a major drawback. In the age of Bluetooth and wireless connectivity, needing a clear line of sight to your Xbox feels downright archaic. It's like being transported back to the days of clunky VCR remotes and meticulously aimed signals. Imagine this: you're snuggled up on the couch, blanket draped just so, ready to binge-watch your favorite show. You reach for the remote, only to realize that your strategically placed throw pillow is now obstructing the infrared signal. Cue a frantic readjustment of pillows, blankets, and possibly your entire living room furniture arrangement. If this remote had been Bluetooth-enabled, it would have been an absolute game-changer. The freedom to control your Xbox from any angle, without worrying about line of sight, would have elevated this product from "good" to "exceptional." So, while I can't fault the remote's functionality, I can't help but feel a pang of regret for not heeding the warnings of those who came before me. If you're okay with the limitations of infrared, this remote is a solid choice. But if you crave the freedom of wireless control, you might want to look elsewhere. Lesson learned: always read the reviews, folks. Your throw pillows will thank you.

For the price, this remote can’t be beat. It’s very good. I was wavering between three and four stars, and ultimately went with three due to the number of “little things” rather than one big thing wrong with it. First the good, the remote is responsive, it works right out of the box without configuration. It even controlled the volume on my receiver without selecting that option in the CEC settings. If you need a good media remote this is an excellent option. Especially for the price. However, I would be more than happy to pay more to address a few shortcomings. IR is nice and I wouldn’t want to lose it, but the remote needs Bluetooth as well. I’ve grown lazy and picking up the remote to point it at something feels so last decade. As others have noted the back button isn’t in the best spot. Not the worst either… It’s between the channel up/down and volume up/down buttons. Lower than most people navigating with the D-pad would typically place their thumb. It should be directly below and to the left of the D-pad like on most remotes. The backlight is a welcome feature, but it fades out too quickly and is difficult to reactivate. You really have to shake it a bit once your holding it. One or two more seconds would make all the difference in the world. The navigation buttons on the D-pad I sometimes miss when sliding from the center button. Not a huge deal but they could be designed to be more sensitive over a larger surface. On the other hand, the XBox button is quite nice to press. It’s better than the one on my Series X controller. The media remote it is clicky and the XBox responds immediately. The Series X controller is more squishy and takes longer to respond. For $20 this remote is great. I want a $50 version of this remote.

Funciona bem.

La télécommande Xbox PDP se distingue par sa qualité de fabrication remarquable et son emballage sophistiqué, ce qui en fait une excellente idée de cadeau pour tout amateur de jeux vidéo ou de multimédia. Son design et sa construction solide apportent une touche d'élégance à l'ensemble. L'expérience utilisateur quotidienne est très agréable. Un des atouts majeurs de cette télécommande est sa facilité d'utilisation : elle fonctionne automatiquement sans nécessité d'appairage, offrant une expérience plug-and-play vraiment appréciable. Bien qu'il soit nécessaire de pointer la télécommande directement vers la Xbox pour son fonctionnement, ce qui pourrait être un inconvénient dans certaines configurations de salon, cela ne pose généralement aucun problème dans un agencement standard où l'on est face à la console. Le rétroéclairage est un véritable atout, rarement présent sur des produits concurrents, même plus coûteux, comme les télécommandes LG ou celle de l'Apple TV 4K. Cette fonctionnalité améliore considérablement l'utilisation dans des environnements peu éclairés, comme lors de soirées cinéma. En conclusion, je recommande vivement la télécommande Xbox PDP pour ceux qui cherchent à améliorer leur expérience de visionnage de Blu-rays sur Xbox, ou simplement à ajouter un niveau de confort supplémentaire à leur configuration de divertissement. Son design élégant, sa facilité d'utilisation et son rétroéclairage en font également une idée de cadeau parfaite pour les fans de la console Xbox.

Ich habe lange überlegt ob ich eine Xbox Series X neben der PS5 noch benötige. Bei einem super Black Friday Deal inkl. Diablo IV habe ich doch zugegriffen. Und das die Xbox sehr leise ist und eine 4K Laufwerk hat, lässt sie sich auch hervorragend als Blu-ray Player nutzen. Und dir Remote funktioniert einwandfrei. Ja, es handelt sich wohl um Infarot weshalb man etwaszielen muss. Aber sie ist beleuchtet, braucht 2x AAA und ist wertig. Ich hatte einen Voucher für einen Monat Xbox Game Pass Ultimate beiligen. Top!

Cool génial

Antes de la salida de las consolas Series X-S no había casi ningún mando multimedia para Xbox, los pocos que había superaban los $1,000 mxn - $50dls Era cuestión de tiempo para que salieran al mercado opciones para la nueva generación pero nunca imaginé que seria de una calidad tan descomunal y con tan buenas prestaciones. Uso mi Xbox One X (pasada gen) como centro multimedia en la sala de mi hogar y era de lo mas fastidioso usar el mando de juego para ver netflix, hbo, spotify etc sin mencionar que mis padres no entendían como se manejaba por ser un mando de juego Ahora con este mando que pareciera uno mas como de TV-Bluray esos problemas desaparecieron y ahora manejan la consola como si nada, dejo mi opinión después de 1 mes de uso Pros. -Retrocompatibilidad - No solo funciona en la nueva generación de consolas (Series X/S) si no que también funciona en la pasada gen Xbox one y la Xone X -Diseño y Material Premium - Para mi sorpresa por el precio tan económico no esperaba un diseño y material tan lindo a la vista y la sensación al presionar los botones es muy satisfactorio -Retro iluminación automática - Si eres de las personas que lo ocupan en salas obscuras o de noche, el mando tiene un sensor de movimiento que al activarse se iluminan todos los botones durante unos 3 segundos detalle que se agradece para no perder de vista los botones en zonas obscuras -No necesitas vincular/instalar - Así como lo saqué del empaque cualquier botón que presiones en ese momento tu Xbox lo detectara sin tener que vincular o instalarlo antes -Buena autonomía de baterías, a día de hoy es un mes exacto desde que le puse unas baterías recargables precargadas, nunca les di una carga completa y justo hoy se acabo la baterías, considerando que la consola esta en mi casa y permanece prendida por lo menos de 6-8 horas diarias ya que todos la ocupan, el control no gasta tanta batería a comparación de un mando que a la semana ya ocupa recargar las baterías Contras. -Tapa de baterías de mala calidad- Si bien no todo es color de rosa aunque lo pareciera, el único punto negativo es que a 1 mes de uso la tapa de baterías, se cae por si sola, lo cual no tiene mucho sentido, solo se abrió una vez para colocar las baterías y se aflojo como si se hubiera abierto y cerrado como juego mas de 100 veces, para evitar esa gran incomodidad le puse cinta adhesiva lo cual hace que se vea algo feo para el lindo diseño que lleva Conclusión. a pesar de ese punto negativo me parece una maravilla de control y salvo mi vida y la de mis mandos de juego ya que se ocupaban para ver aplicaciones y era arriesgarlos mucho a que alguien los tirara, el diseño excelente y su funcionalidad mas que perfecta, recomiendo ampliamente su compra
