Replacement remote for LG TV

[plastic penguin]

As most of you know my daughter purchased a 32" LG TV less than 3 years ago. The LG remotes are so flimsy, it's now given up the ghost.

Yesterday, went to Currys, where the TV was purchased. Purchased a "One For All" remote for all LG TVs. The quality is far superior to the original LG. Given that modern TVs don't work without the remote, why do they cut corners on remote controls? The picture quality is still very good for a budget TV but the remote control is way below par.

Good result. Our LG remote is fine after a yr tho the trackball thing drives me crazy. As does WebOS. The only remotes I’ve ever had die have been Samsungs.

I've occasionally tried to us the 'wand' thing that ours does - hate it.

Made the move to programmable remotes about 15 years ago and have never regretted it.

We don't have a trackball thingy, must be because it's an earlier model.

This replacement remote is much more tactile than the original. For £15 it's a steal. One happy penguin 🙂
