I had to buy this on release with my PS3. These remotes are the best ones for the system they are simple to use and totally help the PS3 experience,especially in the media section. Now this remote runs on 2AA batteries, and I have only just had to replace them 2 years on. The remote itself is blurtooth and super easy to configure to be ...  Read the complete review

I had used my Playstation 3 as a Blu-ray for 2 years before I finally decided to purchase one earlier this year and only then because I bought PlayTV. It is a standard remote control - play button, pause, fast forward etc but it uses blue tooth technology so you don't need to point it directly at a light sensor to use it. ...  Read the complete review

This is undoubtedly a must have purchase for any PS3 owner. This brilliant remote can control everything from TV channels (with PlayTV) to playing the games themselves (even though I wouldn't recommend it). And at £15 it's a steal! For starters the design of this remote is nice and fits in with your tech set up. Even though it's slightly ...  Read the complete review

I have had my Playstation 3 since December when I bought it on sale from Woolworths. I do use it's Blu Ray function & it is my only & main Blu Ray player. With this in mind, I decided that I should use my first DooYoo miles to buy this remote. It is a sturdy item that fees quite solid although even with the batteries in the ...  Read the complete review

This remote control was a godsend after a year of using the controller to try to skip through adverts and scenes in movies and not getting anywhere fast! We use the PS3 predominantly as a dvd player these days and felt a bit lost without a 'dootdoot'. This remote resolved that! Runs on 2 AA batteries (which come with ...  Read the complete review

Let me just preface this review by telling you that I bought this item as part of a movie bundle. It contained a blu-ray, HDMI cable and the remote itself. It was a great bargain and cost me about the same as the individual price for the remote itself. As such it was a great bargain for me but I can't say if I'd find it as good value if I'd just ...  Read the complete review

The PS3 remote is an essential accessory if you watch a lot of Blu-Rays and DVDs. I basically use mine as a Blu-Ray player so this was a must-have. Using the PS3 controller is very limited and annoying. I hit buttons on accident all the time, especially the triggers which made it fast forward or rewind. The remote has all these functions and ...  Read the complete review

Im glad i got the BD remote because tonight my Play TV was posted to me, after a week. It was Brand ...  Read the complete review

How much better is life with a dedicated Blu-Ray remote? I hated the functionality of the standard control pad for DVDs. I searched for ages until I managed to get one in my local Game store. It was just under £18, wwhich is about the normal price, give or take a pound. The remote is very normal looking in black and I quite often get it ...  Read the complete review

Sony do it again, they release another console with DVD/Blu ray playback and encourage the consumer to fork out extra reddies to get the best from it. The PS3 will play Blu ray out of the box with a standard six-axis contoller however it can be a bit cumbersome navigating around menus and trying to remember which button is fast forward ...  Read the complete review

If you use your PS3 for watching films, this remote is an essential purchase as it changes the PS3 from a games console that happens to play films to a fully featured media centre. Using this remote to control playback options is much more intuitive than using the PS3 controllers, and gives the PS3 a higher acceptance factor for all our non games ...  Read the complete review

We ordered one of these remotes when we ordered our PS3 so they both arrived together and we are so glad we did. It can be a bit expensive but it is worth it. The remote control is very good quality and well built. It feels good in your hand and all the buttons are easy to press. You get 2 AA batteries included with it and they last a long ...  Read the complete review

I brought this product after my dualshock control wasn't very good when watching DVDs. The sixaxis always fast forwarded the film when put down (the triggers were knocked) and the buttons weren't displayed. The remote is much better and is a must buy for every Playstation 3 owner who watches video or Blu-Rays on their system. The ...  Read the complete review
