I appreciate the simplicity of this universal remote (which is incredibly close to my "dream remote"). It works well for me in managing primary activities such as "Watch TV" or "Play a Game." It handles the essential tasks like navigation, power, volume, and play/pause for these major activities, which typically make up 99% of my remote usage. This keeps things simple for me and my family. For the occasional 1% of unique situations, I resort to using the original remote.
