how can you live with that awful remote?

not even a mute button. and it makes me earn for the old directtv remote! that's how bad it is. Everything is so unresponsive and odd.

I really like the remote. It has mute and volume and like swiping on the top rather than clicking.

I like that it’s aluminum, doesn’t take batteries, and is bluetooth (or at least doesn’t require line of site). It’s the longest lasting of any remote in my house.

You’re probably thinking of earlier versions that were different.

The new remote has a mute button. Old remote was garbage.
