Gvirtue Replacement Remote Control Compatible with All Sky Q Box, Mini and Silver Box (Non-Touch, No Voice Control)

Great! Works well, the volume button didn't work at first but once you go through settings you can put it on 😁

My original remote for my 2022 Samsung TV stopped holding a charge, so I decided to try this solar-powered replacement. The setup was a breeze—I just held down the 'Return' and 'Play/Pause' buttons to pair it. The dual charging system is fantastic. I keep it on the coffee table, and the ambient room light seems to be enough for the solar panel to maintain the charge. For a quick top-up, the USB-C port is super convenient. The voice search works flawlessly for finding shows, and the dedicated shortcut buttons (Netflix, Prime Video, etc.) save me so many clicks. It feels great to never buy or throw away batteries again. A perfect, sustainable upgrade for my Samsung QLED.

I needed an exact replacement for my Samsung TV's BN59-01432A remote, and this one matched perfectly. Before buying, I double-checked the long compatibility list in the description against my TV's model number, which gave me confidence. Pairing was instant and all the functions work exactly as the original did. A common question I had was about charging: it primarily uses solar power, but on cloudy days, I just plug it in with a USB-C cable for an hour or so. It's important to note this is designed specifically for the TV; it won't control other devices like a soundbar, but as a direct TV remote replacement, it's excellent and feels very well-made.

The remote is ok in general but the 'volume up/down' button and the 'source' button don't work right from day one. All other buttons seem to be ok. Update on 18/1/2026. More buttons have stopped working making this remote useless. My recommendation is don't buy it.

I have a slightly older Samsung smart TV (from 2021), and I was worried about compatibility. I'm happy to report this universal remote works perfectly with it. The pairing process was straightforward—just point it at the TV and follow the simple on-screen prompts. The voice control is a game-changer I didn't have before, making searching for content so much easier. The solar charging is effective; I just make sure it's not left in a dark drawer. For those wondering, it doesn't have a backlight, but the buttons are clearly labeled. For the price, getting a modern voice-controlled, solar-charging remote for an older TV is incredible value.

Worked instantly with my Sky box

Doesn’t work well at all, have to really make sure that it’s pointed at the sky box to do anything and you have to press button most of the time constantly to get anywhere , it is now not working at all.

Ok for the price ! But the remote is not very responsive you have to keep pressing the the buttons - very annoying.

Funciona igual que el original, se ve igual que el original y se siente igual. De verdad no gastes en otros cuando puedes usar este más barato.

I'd been searching for a new Blu-ray player since my old one died an untimely death. Perusing a surplus shop the other day and came across a great little Samsung BD-J5700 unit, and because it's remote was missing, I picked it up for a song. It's always a bit of a gamble when buying replacement remotes, sometimes they work, or only some of the functions work, or they don't work at all. I'm happy to report that the Gvirtue AK59 is an excellent replacement unit for my "new to me" player. The remote also includes buttons to control a Samsung brand smart TV. Though I have not had a chance to test out the TV buttons as I don't own a Samsung TV. Otherwise all Blu-Ray functions work perfectly. Your mileage may vary depending on your model of Samsung device, though I would assume if your unit isn't too old, it should work. For the price it's a fairly low risk test. Construction seems solid, buttons have a good press feel to them, albeit button clearance is a little tight and if you've got big fingers it might be more difficult for you. Though most controllers these days have this problem. Runs on two AAA batteries. Back is curved instead of being flat, which makes it easier to hold. There is an indentation for your forefinger about 2/3 of the way up. Signal strength is decent, I tested from about 15 feet in a bright room, and an angle of up to about 45 degrees from centre. Reading through some of the other reviews that gave the unit 1 star. It seems that some people seem to think this is a universal remote, that can be programmed. It is not a programmable remote. It's a simple 1 to 1 replacement. You simply insert batteries and it works. No manual required, no setup required. Also, the ad lists the exact models of Samsung player that work with it so if your device is not on the list, it may not work. Can't fault it for that. I will of course update this review if I have any issues after months of use.

Funcional, buena calidad.

Está muy bien ,sobre todo que no se programa ,funciona al instante

Compré indebidamente un par de controles antes de este, y resultó ser una mala idea para controlar una TV que cuenta con sistema 3D. Éste resultó funcionar perfecto con TODAS las funciones para una LG 3D de hace unos 4 años. Buen precio.
