LG Magic Remote Control for Smart TV

Amazing product, it really is magic! Easy to setup (just click the OK button), works like a wii remote, saving time rather than clicking the arrow keys (especially when entering a username, email or password). Also programmed it to control my Samsung Blu Ray player, it had a barrage of other manufacturers on the list when I was setting it up. It can also control set top box's, home theater systems and sound bars too (that are not LG). One remote for all.The voice command feature is amazing, you can say 'BBC' and it will pull up all the BBC channels in a list, it's especially handy when browsing the internet through the built in web browser. I really would recommend it to anyone.

.We bought this as an additional magic remote for our LG 40UF770V 40-inch Ultra HD 4K TV as spare, as it is a key accessory to have. The design is ergonomic and sits well in the hand and the function on each button/ symbols are well laid out & having only a few buttons you soon learn what they are – really how often do you actually read the, manual, on your remote? this is not one of those “busy” remotes where there are tons of input buttons - it is clean, simple and functional. That said it was a slight learning curve to get used to the remote, other reviews I have read said it was a “breeze” to use straight from the box. As a family we found it works a dream with no real issues. It makes using WebOS so much easier and navigating web pages. If you're not sure whether it will work on your model just log onto the LG site and put in your model number.This is an essential, piece of kit, for some games on the smart TV, and you can just point and click at the screen to select & navigate, it is great for entering text on the keyboard scroll wheel is pretty neat too.All in all a good remote that does its job well..

After using the standard LG remote that came with my TV for several months, I was dubious if this Magic Remote would be worth the money to effectively do most of what my old one did already, barring the cursor functionality. But I must admit it's a joy to use, and the fact that you don't even have to point it straight at the TV in order to get the cursor to work is great. It has made navigating the various menus a joy, and the buttons all have a nice solid feel to them. If you fancy getting the most out of your LG TV then you can't go far wrong with "upgrading" your remote to match.

If nothing else at all this remote is brilliant for my wife and grandaughter. Ill explain......I bought a new LG tv and anything more than an off and on button my wife goes into meltdown, so with all the other remotes there needed to be an answer and this was it.....press a button and say " HDMI 1 " or " HDMI 2 " or whatever you have labeled your inputs........say " netflix " say " amazon " and it finds it ...........briliant.........and as far as the granddaughter is concerned she thinks its fun and can manipulate the tv without a problem............first class product 5 stars all round .

Worked straight out of the box alongside the new TV.Didnt even have to use the original remote that came with the TV.It does have a voice search option like IOS Siri or Ok google, makes life alot easier for my mum and dad.

Item did not work for my LG TV

We have used the stock remote control and one of these for a year with no issuesUnfortunately the original (square) remote was damaged so I bought a second one of these.What isn't mentioned is that it will not work!If you have one of these it seamlessly pairs with the TV, when you pair the second, it replaces the first so the original no longer works.Great fun if you want to have fun by gaining TV domination by deleting your partner's control, but prativcally a waste of time and money

Everything works fine, except it does not have the play, fast forward and rewind buttons. For these functions I have to use the original LG remote. Note that you can download an app for android which will do everything that this remote can, for free. Still, it comes useful sometimes, so 3 stars.
