With proper support, it can reach impressive size indoors while maintaining manageable care needs.

Much Easier to Handle
Color: Black
First let me say that I didn't want to have to buy a case for my remote. It's such a beautiful device that I hate to hide it but unfortunately I have to because it's just not very practical to use. First, it's so slim that it's hard to pick up from a flat surface. Second, it's so slippery that I was afraid it would fall out of my hands. And third, I have tile floors so if it ever fell, I know it would shatter. The Fintie case solves all of these problems. It gives the remote just the right amount of thickness and grippiness to make it easy to pick up and use, and I feel like it if ever fell onto my tile floor, the Fintie case would protect it from chips and shatters. Admittedly, the case does detract from the beauty of the remote, but it does make the remote more usable day-to-day. And in a sense it protects the beauty of the remote because a shattered one wouldn't look very nice now would it?

Perfect Fit & Actually Glows!
Color: green-glow, Color: green-glow
We recently replaced our old Apple TV remote and decided to switch up the cover this time. We had a red one before, but chose the glow-in-the-dark lime green for this remote — and I’m so glad we did. It’s much easier to find in the dark now! The case fits the new Apple TV Siri Remote perfectly and feels snug without being difficult to put on. The silicone material seems thick and durable, like it won’t tear or stretch out easily. The honeycomb texture also makes it less slippery, which is great since these remotes are so slim. And yes — it really does glow in the dark! If you leave it near a window or under a light for a bit, it glows well enough to spot quickly at night. Overall, it’s a simple but very practical upgrade that protects the remote and makes it easier to find.

Feels Great & Easier to Handle
Color: Green
The cover is exactly as described. It makes the slender remote much easier to use & easier to find. It is a perfect fit, feels great and very easy to handle. I bought multiple covers in different colors for each remote so now it won't get mixed up or lost.
