Where to get a media remote

JoyPad · 15-02-2021 11:39AM #1

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a media remote for XBone. Got a Series X for the son, and his old XBone will be repurposed as a media player for Netflix/Prime/DisneyPlus. As such, it would be great to have the media remote instead of a controller.

However, I seem unable to find one to purchase. Have these gone out of style completely? On amzn, I see only one model in stock, and it's bigger than my TV remote. All the small sized ones are out of stock, including the Microsoft original one.

Should I go second hand?

Thanks for any tips.

My Harmony remote works with the Xbone X. I'm sur a cheap universal IR remote would do the job for navigating the xbox OS

I've had a couple of these and they work grand. Markings come off the buttons eventually but it functions and is cheapish.
