Five remotes scattered around the lounge. You grab the wrong one, fumble for two minutes, and just want to watch a show. The Essence 8 kills that. One remote handles your LED/LCD/Plasma TV, set-top box (satellite, cable, DVB-T2), streaming stick or Apple TV, Xbox One or 360, DVD/Blu-ray player, and your soundbar or amp. The learning feature copies any button from your old remotes so nothing gets left behind. Three dedicated shortcut keys put Netflix, YouTube, or Amazon Prime one press away. Setup takes under 30 seconds — three steps, done. If you're stuck, ring 1300 888 298 and someone who's set up a hundred of these will walk you through it
