THE GOOD
For those who plan on regularly using their PS3 for playing Blu-ray and DVD movies, this is an attractively styled Bluetooth remote with a generally well-thought-out button layout and design. The remote also is very responsive and faces no line-of-sight issues because it uses Bluetooth radio, not IR (infrared).
THE BAD
No backlighting; can't control any of your other A/V components; not a huge upgrade over the functionality offered by the PS3's standard controller.
THE BOTTOM LINE
If you do a lot of movie watching with your PS3, the Sony PlayStation 3 Blu-ray DVD Remote is a nice luxury, but it's not a must-have accessory for the PS3.

Works like every other remote control you've ever used except you don't have to point it at the ps3 since it's not using IR.
I love this feature. I've gotten so used to it I do all my browsing with it. It would be easier to browse with if they ha... read more »
