what does the magic remote do that the regular one that comes with tv does not?

It works like a mouse with a computer. Just point at the tv screen and selectcable, internet, netflix, hulu plus, etc. Also can point at letters or numbers when searching and click the middle button on the remote instead of having to scroll through all the letters and numbers. Also can click on a button on the remote to show your cable remote and use it onscreen. Definitely worth the decrease in remotes.

Don't have a regular remote so it's hard to answer But - when it's working (iffy @ best) there's the voice search function (only does Bing- can't make it do google and only searches VOD can't seem to see netflix). If you prefer a wave moved cursor to arrow keys i guess it's worth it. There may be games that the magic remote is needed for but so far I haven't seen any games that look worth the trouble of downloading.

The main thing is that you can control a cursor to type on screen and select different functions. You don't need it to operate the TV screen but it does make it much easier and quicker.

It combines more than one remote. Exp. LG TV remote, Dish remote, Sound bar remote instead of having 3-4 remotes they are combined into one remote for all.

No it does not. Not a big deal because after you connect your phone, or other device, it becomes the remote.

it doesn't work with openers that have the magic button. it only works with openers that are programmed via dipswitch

TV remotes are usually IR Line of sight (non visible light). If there is another remote on the same frequency might interfere with the unit. According to another review, there is digital code for each set, so the possibility of interference is low, but can happen.

we are using the lg an mr200 magic motion remote with good success. We use it on your lg smart tv with play games as well and normal tv channel selection.

I am not familiar with the magic remote cursor, but likely not. This remote can only learn the basic keypad functions of the remotes, and does not appear to feature an accelerometer like the previous version. You'd have to find a remote that supports touchpad input AND probably motion control....probably designed specifically to replace that remote.

Mine did not come with remote, I do not remember if it said it was supposed to or not though.

Of course it comes with a remote, are there any TV's that don't have one these days.

No, it doesn't. If your using the the TV remote, that's the only emitter that will be transmitting. So, in other words it only works when your using the remote that you want to use. Hope this helps you.

just the magic one, still if you have a cable box that uses hdmi you can control the tv with the cable box remote without problems

The remote has a little light bulb on it that you press and you can change the color of the light. The lights are not that bright, its more of a background glow type of thing.

Thanks, M. Squires - much appreciated. I expect that I'll be using a Harmony remote, but presumably that just replicates the TV remote's own signal. If you find definitively that this either does or doesn't work, I'd love to know.

It can control TV1 or TV2, you just change the key on the bottom of the remote depending on which TV you want it to control.

The regular wii remote is fine, the classic remote works also and is more comfortable in your hands.

No there is a full feature remote that comes with it. There is a button on the magic motion button that you can press, it brings up a smart tv screen where you point the cursor to the input selection where you can swith inputs quickly.

When I bought the remote it didn't come with the manual. It looks like the remote for your tv is a little bit different as it doesn't have the button for the 3D on it.
