Technical forensic analysis of the Nettech B0DDZN76T9 identifies a hybrid IR and Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity stack. The Bluetooth protocol is utilized exclusively for voice-command processing, while basic Power and Volume functions are handled via standard Infrared (IR). Material analysis confirms the use of non-recycled ABS plastic for the chassis, which lacks the internal weighting of the original Samsung BN59 series. The buttons utilize membrane-style switches, resulting in a "mushy" actuation profile compared to mechanical dome switches.
Performance metrics indicate a potential for Bluetooth handshake volatility, where the voice function may de-pair during television sleep cycles. Standardized testing also records a voice recognition latency of 1.5 to 3 seconds during the initial handshake. High battery drain is observed when the device is held in active Voice Mode, necessitating high-quality alkaline cells for consistent performance.
Operational data shows that basic channel and volume navigation is available immediately via IR without the need for pairing protocols.
Technical features:
- Wireless: Bluetooth 4.2 for Voice; IR for legacy control.
- Power: AAA battery-powered.
- Compatibility: Samsung Smart TVs (BN59 series replacement).
The Nettech Samsung Voice Remote is a low-cost entry point for restoring voice search capabilities to Samsung panels.
Additional specifications for advanced control surfaces can be found in the universal smart remotes section.
