IR Remote for Roku TV Remote & Roku Players, Not for Roku Stick, Compatible with Roku 1 2 3 4, Express, Premiere, Ultra/LT Models Listed, Power and Volume Require Learning Old TV Remote to Setup

I have purchased 4 of this remote. All work with my tv and Roku if I sync it correctly. This current one is not going well but not because of the remote. I forgot to say the reason I have purchased 4 replacement remotes is because I have a puppy who thinks it is cute to chew up anything I try and keep from him. This last remote he chewed up the on/off button and I am having issues. Except for my dog chewing them up, they are pretty great remotes. I actually like them better than the original ones that came with the Roku. The replacements have all of the channels I stream so I do not have to go to the main screen and scroll to it, I just hit the button and bam! The app shows up. How easy is that?! It is easy to set up if you have a little patience. The first one I had I did not have patience the first time I tried to set it up, but tried again later and realized the problem was me, not the remote. It is not too expensive unless you have bought 4 but tvs will not work without them. If you need a remote to replace an original Roku, I would give this one a try.

This remote works very well with my two Roku Ultra LT boxes and two different Samsung TVs. I stopped watching cable TV 25 years ago and OTA TV 10 years ago. The main source of news for me is now YouTube and Rumble on Roku. To limit the exposure to obnoxious and tasteless advertisements, I use the mute button that is located on the side of the remote and close my eyes for about 5-10 seconds before checking again. This remote has the mute button that works perfectly with my TVs and I could not be happier. I consider the original Roku Ultra LT wireless remote (with alkaline batteries and a built-in connector for headphones) absolutely the best because I can watch TV when my wife has a teleconference and I can replace batteries immediately, without waiting for the device to be recharged. Unfortunately, one of those LT remotes stopped working and I could not find exactly the same (non-rechargeable) replacement. The second best remote for stand-alone Roku players is, in my opinion, a device that uses line-of-sight infrared (IR) signal and sends correct IR codes to TV-s to mute sound or adjust its volume. Obviously, such a remote will not accept headphones but no pairing will be required to make it work. This remote is exactly what I was looking for. One important warning. This remote is very poorly packaged by the manufacturer. The remote is not put in a rigid box for protection; everything is shoveled into a zipper bag. Unsurprisingly, the first remote I ordered arrived with the IR window chipped. The replacement arrived without this defect but no batteries were present in the plastic bag. The bag was slightly opened and I guess batteries slid out of the bag somewhere. This is not a good customer experience. I did not want to initiate the second replacement request so I used my own AAA batteries. The remote is very easy to program for a specific TV. This is done in two steps: * First, press a combination of two buttons: the power button plus some other button described in the attached instructions for your TV brand (Samsung TVs are supported by the device but Samsung is not mentioned in the Amazon product description). A small hole next to the power button is not a microphone but a tiny LED. After 2 seconds, this LED should be lit continuously. * Next, you need to press the blue “OK” button to complete programming. It appears that this configuration procedure needs to be performed only once. No need to repeat those steps after batteries are replaced. The remote has a less rounded profile and it is less comfortable to hold than the original Roku device. The remote is remarkably light. The battery cover is quite thin. I hope the device will hold up somehow. I am not a fan of dedicated shortcut buttons on Roku remotes. I prefer not to have this feature because I accidentally press those buttons from time to time. The “source” button pops up a menu on my Samsung TV and there is not way to get rid of this menu, except for turning off the TV set.

Our Roku remote suddenly stopped working so I purchased this one as a replacement. (Included pics are the OEM remote compared to this one.) This is one of those items I'd like to use half stars on because I'd really like to give it 4.5 stars due to the difficulty of setting up the remote with our TV. The remote worked immediately with the Roku, which was good, but we had trouble linking it to the TV. The main reason we purchased this specific replacement remote was to get the power button and volume controls that were not present with our original Roku remote. The instructions with the remote explained the setup process for several common TV brands, but not ours (which is not an uncommon brand at all). It turns out there *is* a way to set it up with other TVs as long as you have the original remote, but that is not explained in the rather skimpy manual that came with the remote. We messaged the seller, but found the answer deep in another person's review before we heard back from them. Long story short, we eventually did get it to work with our Roku and our TV, but it was way more difficult than it needed to be. I believe this remote is also IR rather than radio control as we have to be pointing it in the right direction to make it control the system. Overall the remote works, but they made us work for it.

It worked for about a day.....than it screwed up my Roku! My Roku started going crazy....I had no control of where it was going (Up Down Left Right, Volume...Up Down) So I unplugged the Roku & plugged it back in....& now this "Remote" only Uses the Volume...Up & Down, Mute, & Power!?! I already have a TV Remote....I needed the Roku Remote!!! & YES......I'VE DONE THE "STEPS" FOR "SONY + ROKU PLAYER"....& STILL NOTHING!!!!!!

Really easy to set up. My only issue is that the volume buttons are a bit stiff and click loudly. I'll get a silicone case for it and hopefully it'll be quieter.

This is working with my ROKU Ultra, and I have taught it to comunicate with my insignia tv controlling volume and mute by teaching it. I've had this for over 1 year and I just replaced the batteries that came with it. The instructions are very clear. Still works great.

Outstanding. Easy to use with multiple one button access, easy to set up. Very surprised and very pleased.

This was frustrating to set up as it did not pair with the Ultra 4802X using the instructions provided. I came across another review where the reviewer stated: I was about to give up but got it to work with my Ultra by following the pairing directions for a Roku soundbar. I almost gave up myself and was considering returning it until I read the tip in that review which also worked for me. Reminder - This remote is an INFRARED remote—not a WiFi remote like the ones that ship with the Roku Ultra. So, you must point it at the Roku. It works well once paired and within line of site of the Roku Another issue with this remote is that the instructions and description don't stress enough the difference between use of infrared and WiFi remotes or how to pair with the Roku Ultra. Users could easily think this remote doesn’t work. since it doesn't pair with the Ultra using the provided instructions. Instructions should be updated.
