30 u/UncircumcisedWookiee 4d ago While nice for the rare times I need to type something on my TV, I hate the magic remote every other time. That cursor is just so damn annoying to me. I'm sure it's a unpopular opinion as I see many that like it. 5 u/AtheistKiwi 4d ago If you center the cursor so it's where the remote is pointing its much easier to use. With a bit of practice you do it without thinking. 4 u/Smeeble09 4d ago Just FYI giving the remote a little shake resets it's position, just in case you didn't know. Also as soon as you press a direction on the d-pad the cursor should disappear, found it useful if you don't want the cursor.
