We have an LG C1 OLED TV. As wonderful as the TV is, right from the start I hated the remote that came with it - the pointer was ridiculous and the shape and ergonomics were terrible. It broke after a while (almost) thankfully.

I've tried a few replacements from Amazon, and they are also not great. They either don't have all the quick launch buttons, missing other functionality, infrared is not powerful enough, or poor ergonomics.

Can you please recommend a replacement remote? Doesn't have to be fancy, but quick launch buttons (Netflix, Amazon, Disney) and nice ergonomics is important. We don't need a remote to control multiple devices, as we only have a TV and soundbar (connected via eARC).

Just use the standard infrared LG remote. They all work the same and with all LG TVs.

I like it as it's small enough you can reach all the buttons with one hand without changing posture.

Edit: you can even buy an official one direct from LG:

I've got one of these - the ergnomics on this thing are just completely ridiculous. Try using it in the dark and see what happens.
