How would this compare to using a Galaxy Tab 2 7" as a remote (for a few bucks more)?

As it stands right now, the touchsquid just sits in the cradle. Even my techno-savvy kids 19 and 21 don't use it. Everyone for some reason would rather use the 2 remotes than the touchsquid. My point is if you are getting the tablet just for a remote, think twice.

Not sure, the touchsquid does look more professional with it's dock, and is rugged. The support on the product has been great.

Definatly NOT a good investment. Had one and sent it back to be programmed. Got it back but could not get it to work properly. It is in my closet and I am afraid to put it for sale. No one from Best Buys could figure it out either. Would you like to buy it?

Augeydoggy,It's hard for me to offer a true comparison due to the fact that I haven't had the opportunity to use the Galaxy 27. I did however look at a unit online and based on what I read I would have probably purchased the galaxy in lieu of the Touchsquid. I like the Touchsquid but at times it is difficult to navigate. It works great and I have had no trouble with the unit functioning a advertised. The Galaxy however seems a little more user friendly. I hope this was helpful. John M.

Roku is way more user friendly, has far more program choices, a blue tooth remote, but is considerably more expensive. The Chrome cast does require a smartphone or tablet for remote control. I found the Chrome cast much more difficult to operate. Google Play does offer a lot of movie and TV series along with Netflix and others it is a good alternative.

I have a samsung Tab 2 (7") and it works with it--BUT--you have to pair it everytime you turn the Tab back on. You can use a regular wireless or wired mouse if you have the USB adapter for your samsung android.

I had never tested in the Galaxy Tab 2. I had a Galaxy S3 and used my Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse 5000 paired with ou problems. I read in forum a guy saying that any bluetooth mouse with a 4 digit pairing code works in any android. The mouse you wants uses a 4 digits code so, if the guy in the forum is right, you won't have any problem.

Not sure about the plus 7. It works fine with the tab2 10.1. If you intend to use it to view Comcast infinity on a TV, Comcast blocks it.

The TV works with any USB mouse or keyboard which works elsewhere. They are all standard. It definitely worked with mine. Keep in mind not all apps support both, I know for mouse at least it doesn't work in Youtube app for example. I don't find it useful at all over the touch remote. Instead, I would use a tablet instead for control like for Youtube which lets you search/control on the second device. The worst interface is controlling the mouse cursor by waving your hand in the air in front of the camera. Chromecast would probably be the best experience paired with a laptop.

It works great with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (GT-P5113). It's compact, yet quite stable. I'd suggest getting a 6 ft. cord for convenience sake as the 36 inch cord that is supplied is a little limiting. Good luck -James

If you click on the "Smart" button on the remote, one of the icons is for web browsing. I've used it and it works (as long as you setup your T.V. ) on your home network. Since I don't have a keyboard attached to the T.V. it was cumbersome using selecting one letter at a time from the virtual keyboard and remote control, so I hardly ever use it.

The Galaxy tab 2 has Bluetooth so I would say that it should work great. Nice little speaker!

Does anyone have a link to the dock which most highly recommended for use with the Galaxy Tab 7 Plus (which includes the HDMI out port)?

I am using it on a 7 inch android tablet and love it. Works great, any way you turn it.

If one is using the iOS app and doesn't mind the hand held device always being in your hand or at your side then go for it. I wouldn't buy the remote. BUT when I climb on an ATV to go 4 wheel'n in the rain or mud, having to carry my phone or tablet in deep mud or rain storms is NOT my idea of small and compact. I do use a tablet to set up the initial mounting position of the Go Pro, then it's back to the small remote.

Yes. I use my Samsung galaxy 10.1 tab 2 to access a Remote Desktop and the mouse works great.

i had to order mine and got it 3wks later cuz i didnt wanna pay for the extra charge in shipping. This isnt lakeshia,its her husband and i got the 60inch lg smart tv and it works pretty good. if u have a keyboard hooked up to ur tv the internet would be a whole lot better than using the remote. i can use the dongle to watch netflix and hulu without no problem. so lemme know if it works out for u. charles

Here is a link to MaximumPC.com. I am an avid techie and researcher of said devices. In this article they compare (in video) the Samsumg Galaxy S and the Viewsonic Viewpad side by side. Cheers http://www.maximumpc.com/article/reviews/7-inch_showdown_galaxy_tab_vs_viewpad_7

Don't know what exactly you have in mind in terms of use but I would consider it thin and quite flexible for everything I have needed to do. If you could be a bit more specific about how you might use this remote I would be pleased to give you more information.
