I want one that has room for an Airtag
Haha, Do people actually lose their tv remotes that often? It'll either be on/in your couch/chair... or maybe the Bed. On the other hand maybe you have a pet, or child that snaps it up and moves it to a "lost" location. Or... maybe you're like me and bought a 4 pack, and is just looking for a place to to put the extra tags (besides the keychain ones) LOL.
Cheers!
 
Just ordered one bit from her pictures it looks like it’ll be smooth silicone. There were some protective cases I got off Amazon for the first gen Siri remote that has textured silicone which really helped add some grip. Hope something like that also comes out for this remote.

This is what I’m referring to:

Here's one on Amazon which has a textured back. Ship date is about a month out. https://www.amazon.com/LYWHL-Silky-Soft-Anti-Slip-Shockproof-Protective/dp/B095WXTDPT

This one looks good.

Whoa...that case is... wow. Not for me.

Would appreciate any feedback from those who have received remote cases regarding whether the raised edges of the cases tend to interfere with the right and left sides of the remote's click circle.

I've realized that my thumb is typically all over the edge of the remote when I'm left or right clicking so it's a concern for me.
 
Doesn’t affect my movements at all. Still able to use the touch and buttons no problem. Plenty of gap around the circle. The case also seems to dampen the “clickiness” of the remote. Glad I bought them.

Fantastic, thanks!
 
Here's another question: Do cases cover the IR transmitter at the front of the remote?
 
After I almost dropped a pair of scissors on my remote I decided to look for a case. Luckily I found the exact same case I used on my previous remote. I had a great experience with this brand. I used the case for almost 3 years and it still looked brand new when I upgraded. I'll post pics after I get it.

Elago also provides one that looks good and has a magnetic back.

I'd like one that covers the buttons too.

This one is the only one I think.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B096NSDDTM
I have the Old Remote version (same brand) case in that version and I love it. It dampens the click noises in the night as well.

Just one issue, seems to be blocking the IR signal by the reviews at the minute.. hmmm
Maybe should hold back on that for a while until they work out the design better.. I'm not sure if its the black one only with the kinks though.
