Philips SRU8015/37 Prestigo 15 Device Universal Remote offers a control up to fifteen to twenty-five different devices. That is actually more than enough to control all the devices in my house. The remote is beautifully designed; it looks stylish and sleek on the outside.

Some people, especially I myself, would definitely welcome backlit keys, they are easy to use and easy to see too. Aside from it being fully backlit, programming is easier than usual, hassle-free. However, programming requires a whole lot of patience, as it’ll eat up much of your time. After programming and figuring everything out, things should work out fine after you connect it with your devices.
Though, for our simplicity there’s an “All Off” button available on this remote, unfortunately, there’s a catch. In order to make good use of it, you’ll need to manually add each device and tell the controller what command to send. Those aside, if you somehow do set the “All Off” feature up, don’t try it when one of your devices is off, your universal remote will automatically switch it on. When it comes to that, believe me, it is a nuisance.
The Philips SRU8015/37 Prestigo 15 Device Universal Remote does not have a wide database, it is limited, and so what’s really annoying here is that you’ll need to slowly manually program other devices which have been not included in their database. Like I said, you are required to manually program a few devices, but what really puts me off is that there are even Philips devices which are needed to be manually programmed!
There’s still much room of improvement in the Philips SRU8015/37 Prestigo 15 Device Universal Remote. Still, all the same, with its cheap price compared to others, it might still have some potential in satisfying certain customers’ needs.
