Re: Roku TV Remote Mute Button terrible Location

We bought a small Roku tv years ago. The mute button on the side which I keep on hitting is very annoying. Then I bought a Roku 4K streaming device and the same mute button is on the right side of the remote. You would think that Roku should have change the remote design years ago. But no. They keep on insisting to give us this remote with this stupid stupid design ergonomically inane surpass only by Roku's "we don't give a **bleep**" attitude of not changing its design.

Perhaps I will try putting magic glue on it and glue it permanently.

I suggest getting remote cover the kind snuggles every button, the rubber membrane is higher than the buttons themselves including the mute key. So, you have too purposely drop down into crater to press a key, so no accidental pressing of keys. I like them alot. These are mine:

My remotes are the Voice Pro rechargeable remotes, so these are the ones I purchased:

 

Amazon.com: [3Pcs] Case for Roku Voice Remote Pro 2021(Only for 2021 Released), Anti Slip|Shockproof...

 

If you have Roku tv remote that takes AAA batteries and has microphone or crescent moon key, then go with these:

 

Amazon.com: [4 Pcs] for TCL Roku TV Steaming Stick 3600R Remote Case, Woocon Silicone Case Anti/Drop...

 

If you have a Roiku tv remote that has the discrete channel buttons one on top of the other go with these:

 

Amazon.com: TOLUOHU(4 Pack) RC280 TCL Roku TV Remote Control Case Cover Silicone(Glow in Dark) RC280...

Re: Roku TV Remote Mute Button terrible Location

Never a complaint? So far it’s my key complaint. Everything else is so well thought through. Then there’s the mute button 😂
