People can be drawn to this remote all they want. You can’t buy what’s not for sale 🤷♂️This is completely missing the biggest reason that people drawn to this particular remote: that it has the Siri button and microphone.
For my part, I hate everything about the ATV remote except the Siri button. The trackpad is annoyingly fiddly for edge clicks and apps are wildly inconsistent about what clicks and touches actually fast-forward and rewind, it's too easy to hold upside-down, there's no mute button, so on and so forth.. I'd be really happy if I had some way to purchase this new UE remote.
PS Though you might consider Siri essential, I’d guess that puts you in a very, very small subset of AppleTV owners. Sorry you can’t make use of the item I posted, but I’m not sure how else to help you so I guess you’re on your own at this point. Appreciate your thanks, but it’s enough to know I’ve helped! 🙂
