Good Remote
Bought this to replace a Black Web universal remote, which was so old the words/symbols on most of the buttons were worn off, but was still functional and worked well with my tv and DVD player. But the BW finally died and I bought this remote which I had on my Amazon list to eventually replace my BW because I couldn’t find another BW remote in my Amazon and other retailer searches.. This remote was easy to set up for each of my devices and allowed me access to all the functions and menus on each device, when the correct code was used. All the codes I tried worked to turn my tv on/off but some did not work the menu button to allow me access to my tv menu. I had to try five or six codes before I found the one that allowed this remote to work like the remote that came with my tv. Since this remote doesn’t have some of the buttons the remote that came with my tv have, I had to try different buttons to find the ones that serves the same function as those missing buttons. The only drawback is it’s not backlit, but I’m not going to take away a star because I failed to realize that until after I’d ordered it. 🤷🏽♀️

Very Nice 👍🏻
Works perfectly for our Samsung!Had zero problems connecting it.I wish I would have thought to find a rubber case to go around it, cause my kids drop it all the time. I’m definitely saving this for when I need to buy again. #kidsWillBeKids💚

Works Basics with Harmon Kardon AVR 230 and Fire Stick
Needed this to run an old Sony Bravia and Blue Ray, a Fires Stick and a newer Harmon Kardon AV receiver. It won't turn on the HK, but once on, I found a code through the code search that controls volume and will turn it off. It was actually the SECOND code that turned off the unit - NOT the first one. The first code that turned off the unit didn't actually work, though it did turn off the receiver. The second one works much better and controls the volume flawlessly. The codes in the code list for HK did not work on my unit, an AVR 230. I leave mine set to what I want and so volume and off are good enough. The Fire Stick (mine is older, not the 4K one) works fine once I am on the right input with the Sony TV selected as the setting on the remote. Apparently the Sony figures it out... The remote is not RF as far as I know, so I don't think it controls the Fire Stick directly. Exit backs you out of the menus - good tip that was in another reviewer's write up - Thanks for that one! Don't know how long it will last, but so far, so good. All of these remotes will do worse if you tend to push the buttons really hard. It can bend the circuit board and crack the wiring. So, if you want to have any remote last, press the buttons as softly as you can get away with and it will hold up better. Dropping them is also bad, obviously... Anyway, hope that helps. Reveivers are so often problematic with these universal remotes, but they sound so much better than the overpriced "sound bars" Bad Sound Bars is what I call them... Terrible sound quality, but better than the pathetic and ultra-harsh sound that the TV speakers create... Real speakers and surround make a huge difference... The HK has fantastic sound with the right speakers. I've had friends come over and actually comment on the sound quality. paired with some Polk towers and Technics speakers for the back - all found at thrift stores for a song..(except for the Polk towers) . . It replaced an old Kenwood and the difference is night and day, but finding a remote that controls the HK has been difficult. Good luck...

As expected.
Worked as expected. It was easy to program and is lightweight. The color makes it easy to find. They guide with codes listed almost every brand of TV and smart device.

Functional
It's okay. Wish there was a recharge option. It's functional, however not all buttons translate over as much as I had hoped (especially for the adaptive settings of the sound bar). Occasionally have to get the sound bar remote to modify the acoustics and such. It turns everything on and navigates content without needing three different remotes, though.

Not as advertised!!!!
This remote is advertised as:1) Best Remote Code Library - This Universal Remote Works With All Major Brands And Supports "Thousands Of The Latest Audio/Video Equipment".2) Compatible Devices: Television, Stereo System, VCR, DVD/Blu-ray Player, "Home Theater"3) Add a touch of shimmer to your "home theater"4) Simple Setup - This Remote Comes Preprogrammed For Roku And Samsung TvsNOT SO! I bought this to control my Samsung TV, my Roku Ultra, and my Yamaha "Home Theater A/V", since that is what it is advertised to do. IT DOESNT! The ONLY "Home Theater-A/V" devices it will operate, are the ancient TV/DVD or TV/VCR combos, and a VERY short list of sound bars. Seriously? Ancient technology to control a VCR????As far as pre-programmed to operate Samsung Tvs and Rokus? No, it does NOT! And get this: even when I programmed it to operate my Samsung TV, the only functions it will do (like many others have said) is turn the TV off/on and volume up/down. Seriously? My Roku Ultra remote would already do that!!!Added to that the fact it has 4 "programmable buttons" (A-Yellow,B-Blue,C-Red,D-Green) but the Instructions DO NOT mention these buttons in any way, or how to program them. So, they are useless. As others have also stated, there is NO model number stamped on this remote anywhere. Its bad enough you would have to get online for support due to poor documentation accompanying the remote.... but you cant find support for something when you cant find a model number!The remote is lightweight and not designed well. The streaming device buttons are TINY and hard to operate. I have attached a photo to prove it. Look how tiny the streaming device buttons are, compared to the Roku remote. Not to mention, the "home" streaming button is so tiny, and recessed lower than the buttons surrounding it... that its almost useless. Philips USED to be a high quality company. They should be ashamed for putting their name on this. Im sick of ordering junk that isnt as described, and decided a long time ago to just return everything that wasnt exactly as it was described or advertised, which is what I am doing with this junk remote. Dont waste your time or money.
