Broadlink RM Mini3 – Universal Remote Control for Home Automation, Infrared, Wi-Fi Function (Only 2.4GHz), Black

I was pointed towards this product on the Alzheimer's UK forum. My Mum has dementia and is now struggling to remember how to use the remote control panels for her TV and Sky box. This has been an absolutely brilliant addition and works perfectly. It sits alongside the Ring indoor camera, so I can see her TV across the room clearly enough to use this device to change channels for her. I have it set up with: - her Samsung TV - her Sky box - her Roku player, for Prime, Netflix etc I can change the source of the TV, to switch between the Sky box and the Roku player and the ability to map buttons individually means I can also adjust the volume, pause, rewind, browse through the TV guide menus etc as well. For £23 this is a real game changer for me and my Mum. I just watched a couple of tutorials on YouTube to get it setup, which didn't take long. I'm also going to map it to her electric fire as well, so I can turn that on and off for her as needed, when I'm not there. Would highly recommend!

Bought it just for gadget sake but was surprised the amount of things it will control. It was reasonably priced and works well with Alexa. Can program all tv and cable box remotes into the app which is handy. One phrase to Alexa and all devices can be turned off at once. Only problem Iv had was one device keeps dropping from the list. Other than that it’s well worth the purchase.

Bloody awesome, integration with alexa is poor but this is ALL on amazon..Maybe update ALEXA?? from the app it can learn remotes but also has huge number of pre-installed templates for huge number of manufacturers. Alexa supports basic on/off play pause vol up down. I have bought two and would buy more(if needed) love this product just wish AMAZON would use an ANYMOTE(6 times more expensive when it was making IR boxes) type skill, as with the ANYMOTE skill ALEXA could understand many more TV/Fan type commands.

At first all went well, even though it coped well finding Samsung TV, Yamaha AV and Humax Freeview, it was a pain to set up. Once working it was fine, though Alex could only handle basic commands, such as turn tv on, change channel on TV, she was unable to do anything with the Yamaha AV and would only turn on Freeview box. Decided after a couple of days to add a New AV device (Sony), and the nightmare begins, to add device you have to put it in pairing mode, then all of a sudden it can no longer find Network, even if it was sitting 2 inches away from router, no matter what I did it wold no longer connect. Emailed support for help 5 days ago, still awaiting for some form of response from them Decided it was no longer worth the effort and binned it Good if it worked, but utter rubbish when it does not, and Broadlink support is the worst I have come across in a long time.

As a user of various smart home products, I recently added the RM Mini3 to my setup, and I'm genuinely impressed by its capabilities. It is tiny and you might miss it if you didn't know it was there. It is compatible with a wide range of devices, including TVs, air conditioners, DVD players, and more. It acts as a universal remote control, making it easy to integrate your existing non-smart/dumb devices into your smart home ecosystem. It has all the functions for my TV, 4k Blu Ray play and air con unit and a "community" user had uploaded the commands for my Xbox. You can create "routines" from with in the app or via your smart home eco system (Alexa, Google etc.) The main reason for buying it was a a back up to my Logitech Harmony Elite, which Logitech no long make and provide limited support for. I have started using the Broadlink app more that the Harmony app. Also the IR learning is better than the Harmony hub. The only negative I have so far is, there was no plug/adapter supplied.

This product was released in 2016, and it would've worked perfectly in the market... in 2010. Once you connect the device to your network it works perfectly well, and integrates well with Google Home, but the problem is getting it connected in the first place. The device comes with a USB cable (but no power plug), and has one of those reset holes you'll need a SIM tray eject tool for (not supplied) several times. If you have a 2.4GHz/5GHz combined network you MUST disable 5GHz before you begin setup. If you don't your device will get itself into a state and need to be reset with the SIM tool. If you type in the WiFi password wrong your device MUST be reset with the SIM tool. Your PHONE must connect to the same 2.4GHz device that you want your Mini3 to connect to; if you have multiple access points (e.g. several Eero) then your phone and Mini3 must both connect to the same one, or it'll need to be reset with a SIM tool. When I got all of these steps down... it still couldn't connect to the network and told me to connect to the device itself using its own WiFi network; I had to reset the device with the SIM tool several times before this showed up, and then it tried to take me through a different journey before it got back to this one (more resetting). After about 40 minutes and 15 resets, I finally got this thing on my network. I am a technical professional, and this is one of the most frustrating setup processes I've ever seen in a finished product. 3 stars, simply because in the same modern networking environment, someone less technical is likely to just give up and ask for a refund (read the other reviews!) As for the functionality itself, the app is beginning to look a bit old BUT it does work, and added devices show up in Google Home with no other configuration. Now when I say "Hey Google, good morning", my TV turns on (via this Broadlink), the amplifier it's connected to turns on (Tapo plug), my curtains open (Somfy), and the lights turn on (Hue). One step closer to full automation!

It very easy to install. Works with Amazon alexa No problems

Wouldn't work, I think my husband may be just plain lazy

Çok iyi

Was wel even knutselen met een 2,4ghz netwerk aangezien ik die niet heb. Maar eenmaal verbonden kon ik snel alle knoppen van de afstandbedieningen instellen. Werkt ook goed met Google Assistent.
