Normal TV remote, or backlit?
Sony TV remotes remain identical compared to those from 2022, except for the addition of the direct access button to Crunchyroll mentioned before. The company has two remotes, one for the high-end TVs, and one for the mid-range ones. The difference between the two, apart from the aluminum or black plastic surface finish, is that the premium version has backlit buttons.
Simply lifting the remote in your hand or pressing a button is enough to conveniently light up the buttons in the darkness of your living room. The premium controller also beeps if we ask Google Assistant to locate it for us using our voice. Useful for when the damn thing sneaks between the couch cushions.
