Rii MX3 Multifunction 2.4G Fly Mouse Mini Wireless Keyboard & Infrared Remote Control & 3-Gyro + 3-Gsensor for Google Android Smart TV, IPTV, HTPC, Windows,Networked set-top Box,Mini PC,Andriod TV Box

I never even knew such a thing existed, after I found myself in a new situation, I began using my computer with my big monitor as my main media viewer and I found out they make these really cool remote controls for your computer now. I really like how you can use the cursor and you can turn the cursor off if you don't want to keep accidentally moving it, and once you learn how the cursor actually works you can get pretty accurate with it. Also the qwerty keyboard on the back is really cool to have, I mainly just use it for the space bar to pause and play YouTube videos or Netflix etc. Great product, great deal, zero problems with it. If you have trouble accurately moving the cursor around, that's a skill issue, it works just fine!

In my time I've gone through a plethora of different wireless input devices for my TV and media PC, from the earliest arcane "universal" remotes to full wireless keyboards to mini wireless keyboards, but I think I've finally hit the sweet spot with the MX3.The size and ergonomics are great using it as both a remote and as a keyboard. The use of the 2.4g wireless and received helps insure it "just works" with the PC. No longer having to scrabble on a touchpad is quite liberating, though I think the remote could benefit from having a scroll wheel.The IR side is a bit more complicated; unfortunately while it features 5 programmable IR buttons, the rest on the remote do nothing in IR; e.g. tapping "TV" and then the volume control will not translate to the TV, even after it has been otherwise programmed. That said, with the five buttons you do have, the remote learns and imitates the signal, so whatever functionality is most crucial can be ported over, even from more than one remote. I set mine up to power the TV on and off and switch the input, and programmed another button with the remote for my artificial fireplace to turn that on and off, allowing me to cache away two remotes for the price of one.The only way I could think to improve it would be to include software for the PC that would allow you to remap the various 2.4g wireless aspects of the remote. In particular my media PC also has a 2.4g remote starter fob and card; if I could set up the remote to talk to that card I'd give it six stars.

I love it. I have yet to try to program the infrared (and I might not ever) because it does pretty much all I need it to do in Windows 10 via the 2.4GHz USB transceiver, and it does so very well.Positives:- I plugged it in and it was working in seconds.- When the remote side is up, the keyboard is disabled, thereby preventing accidental key presses.- Similarly, the remote and air mouse are disabled when you flip it over to the keyboard side.- In mouse mode, page up/down works, the arrow keys work, and there are buttons for both app menu and right-clicking.Negatives:- There is a CAPS key instead of a SHIFT key. Like the ALT key, the CAPS key is a lock mode key. So if I want to type "Spider-Man", I have to hit [CAPS] S [CAPS] p i d e r [ALT] - [ALT] [CAPS] M [CAPS] a n... which is very annoying, especially when entering a password with mixed case, symbols, and/or numbers since the characters are typically hidden from view.- Movement with the air mouse works fine until you need to stay in one spot for a few seconds in order to double-click or right-click, in which case the act of pressing either button causes the mouse to move which messes up the double or right click action.- There are no special settings specific to this device--it just uses the system's basic mouse settings. It seems to me that the method the device uses to send mouse movement needs some tweaking and, without device-specific controls, there's no way for the user to overcome this.- It falls asleep extremely fast--like several seconds. So whenever you go to pause or mute, etc., you have to hit the button, see that it didn't work (because it was waking up the remote) then hit it again.- It has no backlight, making the keyboard virtually useless in low-light situations—which seems to be when I use it most often.Aside from all the negatives, it's still very useful and pretty cool, but I would've given it three stars if it wasn't for the low price.*Jan 2019 Update*With so many similarly-designed remotes out there WITH backlights, I'm surprised anyone is still buying this one. I've since upgraded to the Ilebygo Mini Wireless Keyboard/Air Remote Mouse for just a few dollars more.

I plugged this into a USB extension cable a few feet in front of me with direct line of sight, with new batteries. The mouse worked fine but the keyboard I put was unreliable. After multiple attempts to enter my password and log into my computer, I threw the remote in the trash. I've had another remote from this brand before and it was great. This one felt cheaply made and failed right out of the box. I do not have the time or patience to return things like this, and I refuse to try to work with something so frustrating.Overall, this was a waste of time and money. Not sure if I got a dud, it's an bad design, or user error. I was unable to enter a special character with the "alt" key. It would not activate and I could not log into my PC. I'm getting really tired of low quality junk on Amazon. For future reference: if the price seems too good to be true, it is about 95% of the time.
