The first generation apple TV remote is comically bad though.
Can't conceive how a team of professionals released it. it's intentionally built to not be touch-intuitive. it's a smooth rectangle with no obvious way to feel front/back. the touch pad is too sensitive and not precise so you're always always overshooting your intention. there's no back/forward button, they are "menu" and "screen" ? i have no fucking idea what they mean to this day. screen is "home" and if you press it you lose all navigation. "menu" is like select and back... but not really. i have never pressed the mic or play/pause, cuz that's what the big touch button does too. there's no mute...
i can think of this remote and laugh on demand, it's just so impressive how bad it is.
