Best LG TVs for remote control quality

#1

The magnetic remote is one of the most universally praised details. Reviewers repeatedly like being able to snap it onto the screen or folio so it is easy to find.

#2

Physical, clicky buttons are a welcome alternative to touch-based remotes for an owner who prefers tactile control.

#3

The Magic Remote combines tactile controls and a comfortable grip with pointer operation, but the revised design loses convenient numeric shortcuts.

#4

The Magic Remote pointer makes navigation intuitive and the redesigned handset fits the hand better. Missing physical controls create some frustration.

#5

A traditional button-heavy remote is appreciated by some, but the optional Magic Remote and occasional navigation delays divide opinion.

#6

Opinions vary by region and model: some find the slimmer Magic Remote useful and responsive, while others criticize its lightweight plastic feel.

#7

The bundled remote has familiar physical controls but lacks voice input and the Magic Remote pointer; ease of use is otherwise decent.

#8

The Magic Remote works effectively, but its plastic feel disappoints at this TV’s price.

#9

The Magic Remote offers helpful shortcuts, but its shiny plastic body feels dated beside premium competitors.

#10

The Magic Remote’s pointer can be genuinely useful, but many versions feel light, plasticky, and unworthy of an expensive flagship.

#11

The supplied B6E remote is simpler than the B6’s Magic Remote and misses its motion and voice conveniences; the more advanced remote can be bought separately.

#12

The remote lacks immediately obvious mute and input functions, making it feel less polished than a flagship accessory should.
