navigation skips
Navigation skips when trying to control certain streaming services through Samsung TV. Tried reinstalling but no improvement. Very frustrating. Also remote only controls certain TV functions. Definitely not a "universal" remote.

At least it looks nice
This remote came with the Bose 700 soundbar. It paired with my devices just fine but after 1 month, the direction pad (up, down, left, right) will move 2 spaces instead of 1 while navigating menus. Sometimes it moves 1 space like it’s suppose to but it’s pretty much guaranteed the next move will be 2 spaces. This causes the remote to be useless for anything except controlling the soundbar volume.
I’ve tried resynching the remote and replacing the batteries.

This is a true universal remote! Amazing
I love this remote! The weight is perfect, it replaced all my remotes and this is not missing any buttons I need. I have the apple tv and this has replaced that remote, my vizio tv remote has been replaced. And the light up feature is amazing especially at night or while watching a movie.

Breakthrough Design but it doesn't work
I bought everything Bose. This remote came with my SoundBar 700 package. I think it has a great design. It took me a while to figure out how to reset it. I think it's great to use my iPhone App to control it. It doesn't like some previous system which need to hook up to TV. I think that can minimize their cost and Bose is able to sell it at lower price. However, I couldn't make it work with my LG TV and not even my Apple TV. I can only use it as an expansive volume control remote which I can simply use my phone to replace it.

I’m struggling !
Came with Bose 700 sound bar and sub woofer. Lovely feel. Clever context sensitive lights. Backlighting stays on waaay too short and doesn’t seem to be changeable. I’ve successfully connected it to TV (which it controls well), DVD (which it has limited function) and a Virgin V6 media box (which, after apparently connecting ok, as confirmed by remote powering the V6 off, doesn’t seem to work at all. Very frustrating.

Possibly the worst universal remote ever made
Where to start... (1) it does not pair with my TV (Panasonic FZ950) - I have tried so many times to re-pair but it at best it intermittently works (2) Lights flick on and off so you can never actually see the buttons, (3) when the lights do flick on, they often don't turn off for hours (what a waste of batteries).
Such a hopeless remote, I'd love to throw it in the bin but I need it change the audio inputs on my Soundbar 700 - this is literally the only thing I use it for (if I play music from my iphone then turn on the TV on the soundbar does not automatically change inputs).
Here's an idea Bose, include a source button on the Soundbar 700, then you can stop including this in the package - it is more trouble than it's worth.

Less lights light up
Hi there, recently less lights light up on my remote. Some of the buttons i need did not lit. Previously when i first got it, all six sources buttons would light up and the one that i click on will turn blue and all other colorful buttons will also light up. Recently, only the TV and the Bluetooth buttons and a few other white buttons would light up. the numbers and the coloured ones and the TV Source buttons are dark. Is there a problem with my remote?
