So it seems Anderic sells off-brand replacements in this regard. At least for this particular remote. This is evidenced by the fact that once paired to the TV there is a bug that persistently attempts to update the software of the remote. The problem is it will always fail because it's not an actual OEM Sony. And so now I'm left with an ever-present prompt every time I turn on my TV telling me to update the software on the remote that will always fail when acted on.
Receive product in a timely manner. Product worked right out of the package and is exactly as advertised.
I needed a replacement remote for my very old Onkyo receiver. I had an online chat with an Anderic bot who steered me to the correct product. It arrived quickly. I loaded the batteries et voila - it worked like a charm!!!
It doesn’t pair with our fan/light combo and despite multiple attempts customer service couldn’t help.
I purchased this remote to replace the original solar remote for our Samsung TV. It worked perfectly right out of the package.
