RC9800i - Remote Possibilities for Control Freaks

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2006
The Bottom Line: Four or five stars, it's a tough decision. The best rating I can give comes in the form of recommendations to friends and family. I highly recommend the RC9800i.
Review: The opportunity to share my experiences about a product that exceeded my expectations is a unique situation. I expected to enjoy playing with and learning to use my new Philips RC9800i Touchscreen Remote Control. The idea of replacing all the remote...

The Philips RC 9800i three men and a Mega Remote Control

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: The Philips RC 9800i is simplest to program and the easiest to use of all currently available mega remotes
Review: I really like the idea of eliminating all the typical Remote Control clutter with a single unit that can control all A/V-Media components, although I am not really a universal remote control sort of guy. Like many consumers, I am a bit intimidated...

The Philips RC9800i Multimedia Control Panel for your Home - A Not so Remote Possibility

Date of Review:  Apr 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: The latest and greatest in activity based remotes. If you're willing to program it to use all features and communicate with all your devices, you'll forget your other remotes.
Review: If you could design one remote to replace all the remote controls in your home, what features would you include?

- Controls on a large color touchscreen with intuitive button layouts for each device?
- Rechargeable batteries that...

Philips RC9800i LCD Touchscreen Remote Control Is One Controlling Device

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: Fun to use, lots to learn and if you have too many remotes it's a fine thing.
Review: I have here an item that makes the "control issues" you may have at your house go away. No more disagreements over who lost what when and who took something somewhere and just where is it now when I need it so badly.

You will no longer...

Great Idea.... Just came up short

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you don't believe my review: buy one at a place that gives refunds, after setup put your other remotes in the attic, see what happens.
Review: I have been working on upgrading my home A/V equipment and one of the things I really wanted to do was eliminate remote cluter just as every other reviewer has stated. I have a Philips Plasma, Yamaha Receiver, Sony DVD changer, Philips Tivo, and...

Replacing my laptop remote with this.

Date of Review:  May 1, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a great buy for someone with lots of AV in their entertianment system.
Review: It is about damn time they came up with a functional affordable remote to replace the gaggle of plastic and batteries on my coffee tables. So I bet you want to know what I loved and hated about this thing. Remember to visit Philips site for all that...

A much maligned piece of kit, but.......

Date of Review:  May 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: For the price a good bit of kit, yeah it locks up sometimes but its a good solid bit of kit for a modest home setup.
Review:
Ok, i bought this with much caution, many forum posts complained about the unit being junk and functions not working as advertised. Now on of the main reasons i got this was that i like gadgets and have a fetish for touch screens.

Elegance Meets Functionality - A Good but Not Perfect Universal Remote

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2009
The Bottom Line: It was a good tablet universal remote control for its time, but it was not perfect and lacked features found on similar products.
Review: Background
I loved my Sony RM-AV3100 (see my review: http://www.epinions.com/review/pr-Sony_RM-AV3100_Remote_Control/content_183117778564) universal touch screen remote. It offered features such as touch screen and user customizable onscreen...
