Excellent price for this tiny little helper. Ordered one myself. Also 2p cashback from Quidco to help you save more on the new year! :p

I had one, back when they were £12, thankfully, I got refund after debating with the owner of the local store.
You get a USB dongle with it, and the remote is pretty much useless as a remote control.
As far as I remember, it's not very responsive, and you have to press the wrong button to make it do the "correct" thing. There's no rw/ffd or skipping, no power button.
As a DVD/Bluray remote it's useless - and you might as well as carry on using the gamepad or a Logitech Harmony (That does bluetooth).
Quite frankly, if you're short on cash, just forget it, and carry on using a gamepad, and if you've got a bit of cash to through about, get a good Logitech Harmony remote that does bluetooth. (I personally use a Logitech Harmony Ultimate, to control all my gear, a well worth investment)
Sure it's only ~£3 to give it a punt, but really, you're better off spending that on some cheap DLCs.
Actually, I don't - I tell people it's a waste of cash, because of my own personal experience, or I've read a shower of poor reviews! And believe me, if I could have cheaped out and just used a remote for £12 back when these things came out, I would have done, just out of ease of use for my wife. The only reason, I've now got a Harmony Ultimate, because they were cheap for what you get - back around black friday I think it was!

Or just enable HDMI-CEC on your TV and use your TV remote....

Why are they rubbish? Do you own one? What is the issue with it? Please justify.

I know mate, some people just like to talk. This was £2.99 before and posted here now it is £2.39 which I believe is a very good price with free delivery...
You get what you pay for. I have one and its not a patch on the ps3 remote. I'd advise saving your cash until Sony release a decent remote. I can't navigate round blu ray menus etc with this.

I'd have to skip. I'd spend more time searching for the thing compared to using it ><

I never owned this myself and just ordered it. Surely I can talk about my experience when I try it. I cannot find any video review of this as well to justify it myself.
Well, actually I have now read some of the latest comments on previous deal and I can see some people are having issue with their product, but I think it is a hit and miss. I am not sure what to say now really. All I think is the price with free delivery is fair, so I will just wait to see how it works myself. :smiley:
And I would never spend heavy money on a remote for a console as I believe it is a very useless accessory for a console.

If you really must have a "cheap" remote for the PS4, import the real thing from Amazon USA, http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-4-Universal-Media-Remote/dp/B00ZJRHSZO(It's as close as you're going to get to a SONY one, since they've said they're not making one, but have given license to PDP to make one for themhttp://www.pdp.com/products/universal_media_remote_for_ps4 )
