One for All Comfort URC-7960 Remote Controller

USAGE

I use it to control following:

- IGO TV using Onida code: All functions get mapped perfectly

- Tata Sky: All functions got mapped correctly but after setting up other devices it ended up with non-working power key (all other were functional). Copied the value (learn) of power button from Tata Sky remote and it is good now.

- Sony DVD player: The first listed code worked and got most of the buttons assigned perfectly. Had to copy few buttons and its good now.

- Yamaha 371: Tried couple of codes but only volume button worked. Tried smart search feature but it also did not help. Finally, did copied all buttons manually, and now I have all buttons I need on this device.

- Did not find smart buttons and macro for any great use for my purpose.

PROS

- In my case 50% things worked out of the box
- Remote looks nice
- Build quality is pretty good though a bit on delicate side
- Has manual copy feature, which I believe is a must for these remotes

CONS

- Dust magnet
- Scratches will find way pretty soon if not covered
- Ergonomically not as comfortable as Tata Sky remote
- Manual is not complete
- No default keys mapping to AVR

VERDICT

- Buy it if you are looking for a VFM universal remote which is easy to use

First of all appreciation to the Flipkart team for packaging and service. It is amazing.

Now the product. I am using it for almost 2 months, mainly with TV and tested on vcd and audio player.
Pros
1. You can configure any appliance (tv, video player, audio players, etc) in few seconds. Took me 7 secs to configure my LG TV which is 9 years old. It has a HUGE coding Library and can take on any manufacturer.
2. The feel and looks of the remote is great.
3. Range is quite good as mentioned, around 20-22 feet, but limited(discussed in cons).

Cons
1. The channel changing number keys are at the very bottom, making it difficult to operate by single hand .. you have to use both the hands to go directly to a channel number.
2. The angled approach of the range is limited. I would say at max 20-30 deg. deviation from the center of the TV. So if you are doing some work and want to do anything with remote, you first align yourself straight in front and then it will work .. a little annoying.
3. Fingerprint magnet. Not much of a drawback for me but maybe for some users.

Overall it is a great product as its got looks and main feature is to control multiple appliances single-handedly and it works quite well in that.

A very good product for the price you pay. The fit and feel of this remote is very nice. A rubber rised back with a crom bodder running all around the remote and black hi gloss front. With a good feel to the buttons. I love that its a learning remote and u can sink it to any make or type. ITs just that u have to get use to the function options of this. Its a bit different then the Orignal remote. You can set any button to and option u like for the orignal remote but the print matter on the remote is very limted but sure u can live with that. As you are paying only a fraction of some of the hi end programable remote price. The call support is also very good. I was impress as I could not get through. The company has a voice mail option u leave ur name and number and the guys from the company call u back. And help u out with all there pacents. Very helpfull.

Very Good Products as specaily if u are using a good setup like a AMP, SETTOP BOX, LCD/LED/TV, DVD/MEDIA STREAMER, ETC. You dont need all these remotes with u when u are watching Tele. Just one Rich looking Classy looking remote.
Very happy with this products.
There are a very bad points . they dont give any batteries with the remote but be sure to use Alkine not the cheep option. and sometime programming can be a pain.
BUT that will happen with any programmable remote with such a setup.
But Support is good.

i bought this product recently. got the product with in a day of booking. that too with Rs.100 discount. if you buy at any stores, this discount is not available.

this remote can replace 6 remotes & add another 3 multi functionalities.

at the begining it was quite tough to understand & get your correct code for the remote to operate your things.
i wanted to replace by Haire 40 inch LED tv , Dish Tv STB , Phillips DVD , Koryo Home theater.
managed to get dish tv code only. all other i have used the learning function & copied the original remotes functions. it is easy to do this even.
the customer care of "One for all " given us option to find the codes of the remotes & update them if you send the picture of the remote.
i have covered the remote with clear wrap to beat the dust attraction.
it is working well & i recommend strongly to avoid playing with multiple remotes.

Let's face it, if you're looking at this stuff you probably are like me and don't want to spend that 5K on a Harmony remote. I've used this and here are my conclusions:

Pros:

1. Works with EVERY device. (Even if your device is not listed, there is a "learning" mode which will help you set it up. No hassles, just a one time process)

2. Easy to set up. (Seriously, no PC syncing, no recharging, no updating softwares)

3. Decent quality for the price

Cons:

1. Poor build quality (what did you expect for the price? Not a deal breaker though)

2. Setup can be confusing at times.

3. Manual not upto the mark. Strongly recommend going through the updated manual on their website (Google "One For All Remote manual")

Overall, superb value for money. Just dont expect anything extraordinary and you will be immensely satisfied with the remote.
