5 of 5 The same you see in stores but not for their price Friday, November 21, 2008
JRest from Round Lake, Illinois
I was always interested in getting the blu-ray remote for the PS3 but not for the usual $25-30 price tag. I never found it justifiable and was fine just using the game controller. When I checked here and noticed the low price (which no one online or in retail stores can beat), I bought one. The remote does what it's supposed to do and has all the button options you need to get the most out of your Blu-ray disc options. Was this review helpful?  
5 of 5 You need this one Tuesday, September 23, 2008

The remote does exactly what it's supposed to do. Without the remote, it's clumsy to try to view a BlueRay disc but with it, it's a snap. They should just boost the price of the PS3 to include it but until then, this is the remote to buy. Buy.com did an excellent job securing and delivering the product. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 PS3 Bluetooth Remote Monday, July 07, 2008

Works as described. A backlight would give it a five! Price and quality are great. Would recommend to buy it. Simple to use and operates without lag. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 Set-Up Was a Challenge Wednesday, May 14, 2008
John from Lake Worth, Florida
This remote must be "paired" with the PS3 before it will work. I followed the instructions, pressing the Start and Enter keys while the PS3 player attempted to find the remote, but nothing happened. I read that others had the same problem. They were told to check batteries (mine were fine) and to turn off any other wireless devices such as routers (I had none). One person said he repeated the procedure several times and it finally was recognized. I tried that. After 3 consecutive attempts (while holding the remote right up close to the PlayStation), I had success. It now works perfectly and is worth its price. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 Good Remote Saturday, March 15, 2008

Remote works fairly decent for a bluetooth. Range could be a little better. Only thing is I saved $6.18 when purchased at
W-Mart. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Solid Remote Thursday, March 06, 2008
A Gamer from Seattle, WA
If you are looking for a Blu-ray and media remote to use with your PS3 this is the best way to go. Easy to use, don't have to point it at the console, DOES turn off the console when you hold the PS button. Overall it was worth the $26 Was this review helpful?

2 of 5 Another example of Sony ineptitude Friday, February 22, 2008
nopcbs from Midland, MI
This review is for the Playstation 3 and Sony optional remote combination. Sony made a big deal out the Blu Ray player capability of the Playstation 3. That's why I bought one. Then they provide no standard remote, which would be fine if you could use a Harmony or other universal remote. You can't because Sony in their total lack of wisdom provided no IR receiver (would have cost what, $2?) on the PS3. So you get to buy this inexpensive, but poorly thought out RF remote (small buttons, no back-light) and have an extra remote you don't want. Or you have to buy a third party IR receiver/remote combination and then manually program your Harmony or universal remote. Nice going, Sony, showing contempt for your customer, again.

5 of 5 Does what it is supposed to do. Wednesday, February 06, 2008
A Gamer from Muenster, TX
This remote control works great with the Sony Playstation3. The only problem I have is that it works by Bluetooth. I have a Logitech Harmony Universal remote that will not output Bluetooth commands, so that I am not able to program it to operate the Sony system. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Good controller Sunday, February 03, 2008
Ken from Seattle, Washington
Wasn't thrilled about having yet another remote to keep track of. I wish that the PS3 would accept an infrared remote controller (like the one I have for Sony LCD TV). If if was both bluetooth and IR compatible that would be ideal. Having said all of that, the blue tooth remote controller is nice because it is not affected by line of sight problems that IR controllers can have if people are between you and your PS3 unit.

5 of 5 Very usefull Monday, December 24, 2007
A Gamer from Spokane, WA
If you want a comfortable way of using your PS3, you should get the remote. It's easy to use and no need to have the controller which is too clunky for just skipping scenes or using it for Blu-ray movies. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Nice Blue Tooth Connectivity Option Monday, November 05, 2007
A Gamer from Ohio
I wish that more companies used blue tooth wireless technology for communication. This remote is decent for PS3 and it nice to not have to POINT the remote at the device to send a signal. Infrared is a thing of the past. Let's get on with the Blue tooth remotes folks. Was this review helpful?
