Philips Prestigo Remote Controls All Your Gadgets

Universal remotes are nothing new but some are a little easier to use than others.

Philips is pinning its flag to the ‘ease of use’ argument with its new Prestigo SRU8015 Universal Remote and its cute, 2in, 176 x 220 pixel resolution colour display.

The remote, complete with rotary wheel control, is capable of handling up to 15 different home entertainment devices [from a choice of 25 categories] and the company promises that set-up is simple, requires no PC access nor complex manual – bold claims indeed.

The colour screen no doubt complements the inclusion of more than 400 icons which users can assign to devices or their favourite TV channels, removing the need to remember channel numbers.

Philips says the SRU8015 universal remote supports almost any product, and can learn the codes of new remotes by pointing it at them and giving them a little zap.
