Dropped and cracked glass on remote for new apple tv 4k. Not covered under warranty. New remote: $59.00. Why not buy a refurb apple tv 4k for More or less $150, get remote for "free" and have second apple tv? Is it useful to have a second apple tv 4k when devices include phone, iPad, samsungtv

You could buy a silicone protective cover for your precious remote. Especially if you have a hard tile floor on which the glass could shatter. (Carpet is a bit more forgiving.)


You could get a universal remote (IR) (no Siri though), or the Apple Remote (aluminum) (no Siri though), or get the iOS Remote app.


The Siri Remote pairs as a bluetooth device, so only one of those at a time.
