Customer feedback describes the remote's appearance and button responsiveness favourably, and some customers say it works well with SwitchBot devices. Experiences with connectivity, setup and compatibility are mixed, with reports of connection trouble and difficulty configuring it. Opinions on compactness and value also vary.
