Technical specifications for the Acoyer Roku replacement indicate a strictly analog IR device. It lacks the 2.4GHz RF chipsets found in official "Voice Remotes," meaning it cannot support non-line-of-sight functionality or private listening via a headphone jack. The internal logic is based on a one-time programmable (OTP) micro-controller that does not allow for firmware updates. Performance data identifies a narrow IR transmission cone, which requires precise alignment with the TV's sensor for reliable command registration.
Material analysis reveals a "Chip-on-Board" (COB) internal PCB design, typically used in mass-market manufacturing to reduce assembly costs. The button actuators are made of conductive rubber, which can be prone to carbon wear and oxidation over high-cycle use. Aggregated reports suggest a potential for membrane collapse in the "OK" and directional buttons within 3 to 6 months of active use.
- Communication: Infrared (IR) Only.
- Compatibility: Roku TV (TCL, Hisense, Onn built-in); incompatible with Roku Sticks.
- Features: Lightweight ergonomic profile; hard-coded shortcut buttons.
The Acoyer 2-Pack provides a low-cost redundancy solution for households with Roku TV displays where voice search is not a primary requirement.
This hardware is grouped with other universal smart remotes designed for IR-based television control.
