This remote controls everything!November 29, 2008 I have used this remote for over six months. Every component I have tried has worked. From an xbox 360, to components that are over 10 years old. If you have the original remote, it will work. I had bought a Samsung hdtv tuner off of Ebay with no remote, hoping the Sony would work with that. The code that Sony supplied did not work. I had to buy the original remote, and program it manually, the Sony remote now works with that as well. It is large and has big buttons, but I have big hands so no problem. My wife, who has small hands, has never complained about the size of the remote. I buy chairs for comfort, not remotes! The only complaint I have is the component select buttons are lighted, but the other buttons are not lighted which is weird. For the money this is one of my favorite universals, and I have tried a bunch. I even have an expensive Kameleon remote, and I prefer the Sony hands down! I would buy this remote again in a heart beat!
Not as smart as I'd hopedNovember 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I know this unit is well regarded but I found it did not live up to expectations. I could not get the unit to operate my Sony CD-Player at all, and the so-called learning function was also hit or miss for me with several of my components. With my Sony amp for example, it did most of the functions, but mysteriously, there were a few key functions it would not do and would not 'learn'. All of my components are major brands, many Sony, and all are pretty recently built, most less than 2 years old. I was disappointed and returned the item.
Best Universal remote known to MAN or WOMANNovember 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
when I ordered this I accidentally ordered two.. well no big deal I'll just return the second one.. after setting up the first one there is NO way the second one is going back!! I have a off brand DVD VCR combo recorder that wasn't listed in the book of codes.. guess what NO problem!! set this remote to learn the other remote function.. hold that button down on the devices remote and bing!! done.. this remote now preforms that function on that device... PLUS!!! you can program SEVERAL devices under one device settings.. so the TV setting can control the TV the DVD setting can control the DVD but the AUX setting can be trained to control the TV your sound system and the cable box ALL under one device!! you just have to remember what button does what on mine under AUX I programed the volume controls to work the volume on my home theater system, the channel buttons control the channel on the cable box, and the STOP / PLAY buttons work on the DVD player!! this is by far the easiest universal remote I have ever owned or had the PLEASURE of programing!!
Nearly perfect remote for under $25October 27, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you're looking for a cheap universal remote that can actually learn commands, too, this one fits the bill!
This remote is shipped with codes for brand name components (Hitachi, Toshiba, Denon, etc.) and gives you the ability to easily learn commands for other types of components by simply pointing your device-specific remote at it and pressing a button. The wonderful thing about this device is the amount of flexibility it gives you. For instance, you can set it while it's in its satellite or cable mode to control the television set's volume simply by learning the TV's volume commands in place of the volume commands of the satellite or cable functions. Also, you can have the remote learn how to automatically make the appropriate change on your receiver as you switch among components. So when you press the VCR button, it will switch your receiver to VCR mode and control your VCR.
Another great feature it has is an increased range, both in distance and wide-angle, as compared to your device-specific remotes. I can stand an additional 10 feet or so away from the device in comparison to the device-specific remote and the Sony remote will still be able to send it commands. With this remote, you can just point it in the general direction of your equipment and it should work.
Finally, the macro programming allows you to set up an activity with a single button. This is especially useful if you need to make an input selection every time you watch a video. For example, if you use the macro programming, you can set the remote to automatically turn on your TV and DVD, switch to VIDEO1 on your TV and then play the DVD by pressing your DVD button.
Now, why did I say that this remote is nearly perfect? Well, it does have several minor drawbacks and one major one.
Minor drawback #1 - You can't program the power button to operate a macro. So if you want to turn on your system with only one button, you'll have to use one of the generic buttons (the ones that are designated as A, B, C, or D). This tends to be more trouble than it's worth because it requires you to have to explain to your guests how to turn on your system or do it yourself.
Minor drawback #2 - There are buttons it really needs that aren't there. Some DVD buttons are missing and it may require that you use the generic buttons for those functions or you use the DVD specific remote for those functions. The one glaring function that's missing is an eject or open/close button for a DVD player or VCR.
Major drawback - The one thing that really keeps this remote from becoming a full-fledged home theater remote is the absence of back-lighting for its buttons. I am fortunate enough to have a true-blue, home theater (big projection screen, HD front projector, 5.1 Dolby/DTS AV processor with a separate 5 channel amplifier, totally dark room) with a Harmony remote that, at times, is overkill, but it's overkill with a viewable control screen and backlit buttons that can be read in the dark. If the Sony remote had backlighting, it could be a great home theater remote for consumer grade to moderate high end home theater systems, so Sony, if you're listening, upgrade this remote to have backlighting!
Overall, this remote's ability to learn codes and its intuitive, comfortable design make it a winner if you use it in a well to moderately lit room. I've bought another one to use in a vacation rental that has a Philips TV/DVD combo that simply doesn't have any corresponding codes in any universal remote I've tried. With the learning feature, I can set the remote to run the TV, its internal DVD player, and the cable box by swapping the TV's channel changing functions and replacing it with the cable box's channel functions, allowing our guests to change channels without giving the remote a second thought. That, ladies and gentlemen, is the beauty of this remote. Its flexibility and simplicity allow you to do away with the plethora of remotes and brings order and sanity to the problem of controlling your audio/video system.
Great remoteOctober 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love this remote, easy to use, soft responsive buttons, quality construction, very very long battery life compare to previous brands I owned. I highly recommend this remote to everyone. Easy to set up and learning functionality is a big plus.
