Replacement remote for X90K - stick with TX800U or try TX910U?
I have an XR-55X90K and I’m looking for a replacement for the original RMF-TX800U remote. The right D-pad button doesn’t always register inputs. I already opened and cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol but this didn’t help.
I’m in Canada and haven’t been able to find any reasonably priced options locally. AFAIK, RemoteControls.com sells genuine Sony remotes and I’m looking at two options:
RMF-TX800U - $29.99 https://www.remotecontrols.com/product/RMF-TX800U.html
This is the safe option and I know it will work with my X90K but I don’t necessarily love the quality.
RMF-TX910U - $29.99 https://www.remotecontrols.com/product/RMF-TX910U.html
This is the more premium remote, so I’d rather get this one for the same price. My only hesitation is that the TX910U is meant for newer Sony TVs. I just want to make sure I won’t lose any regular TX800U functionality. I don’t want issues with the TV, voice controls, Bluetooth connectivity, app buttons etc. I know it has a find my remote function but I’m okay if that doesn’t work on the X90K.
Does anyone have first-hand experience using the TX910U with an X90K? Or is there another genuine Sony remote option that works well with the X90K?
