Upgraded 2.4G Remote Control

Love having this remote to control my ER1-80 dolly. Without the remote, I had to rely on using the app on my phone. While the app is actually perfectly fine, I prefer to work without my phone being in the mix as an unnecessary distraction.This remote allows me just that - the ability to focus on what I'm doing without a phone there to distract.At only $37 at the time of writing, I think its an essential piece of kit for anyone with one of Neewer's motorized dolly sliders.Since the remote has a built-in in LCD display, anything you can do with the app you can now do with this remote. So much easier to control the movements with this.Build quality is much better than I expected - the remote feels pretty solid.Battery is built in and rechargeable via USB-C.

Don't buy no matter how many times I've done the firmware update it wouldn't connect, just stick to the app this remote is no good

This new updated and innovative remote for the Neewer VS series camera sliders is more compact and useful than the original.The instructions included are very comprehensive and walk through the process of downloading and installing the firmware updates and pairing. All the operational control features are clearly delineated in the included manual, and the remote works perfectly after following the directions.Easy pairing and operation is flawless. The display screen is clear and easy to read. Charging at 5V/1A is simple and easy with a USB-C power port.This new remote is much more compact than the brick that was the original. It has more features and is much simpler to use.I couldn't be more pleased with this new remote and it has simplified using the slider remotely. Perfect for my food and cooking photography and video production. Neewer comes through again with a great product!Unquestionably FIVE STARS for this updated remote, and a very hearty recommendation for anyone who owns and uses one of the compatible Neewer Camera Sliders. Awesome!

Although the Neewer slider can be operated from a phone app, I opted into buying this remote to avoid using up my precious phone battery charge during gigs. The Remote took a couple of attempts to connect, even thinking it was not compatible. Eventually, it did and it works well enough to operate the slider without having to use the phone.

This thing is so lame; some outdated primitive toy from the 80's. Thought it would be more dedicated than the app; I laughed when I started it up. Just use the app that goes with the slider, and save yourself the aggravation. Proof: look for instructions on the controller; there are none in the box or anywhere on the internet, including Neewer's own website. All you can find are users using the app.

I have the GVM SLIDER-80, which I think is a great product (I've never been dissappointed with a Neewer prodcut). While that model slider allows you to use a phone app to control it, I'm honestly a bit tired of all of the various apps that I need to control my camera gear, so I really welcome this dedicated remote. It's well made, intuitive to use and controls all of the slider's features. You will need to go through a quick pairing process the first time you use it, but after it's paired once, you won't need to again. I love the fact that it's rechargeable with a USB-C cable (I have too many different types of batteries in my video life already). Overall, I'm very pleased with this remote, and it makes the GVM Slider-80 even better.

The previous remote for the Neewer camera slider looked like the remote control from a 1974 television set, it was huge, clunky and cheap-feeling. While maintaining the rather cheap feeling, this remote at least slims things down and brings the technology into the.. at least the 20th century. One thing this remote has going for it is that it is USB rechargeable. Its predecessor required the same huge type C battery that the motor took, so in essence when you buy this remote, you get an extra battery for your slider.If you own a Neewer motorized slider with a wireless remote, this is a worthy upgrade to the dinosaur that came with it. It functions the same, and still feels a little cheap, but it frees up a battery and it's easier to hold and operate.

I am using the neewer ER1-100 and this remote is a must have. The app works great with the slider easy to connect and use. The only thing I noticed is that you have to disconnect from the phone to use the remote and vice versa. Now a days a lot of tech uses an app on your phone to use so adding this to your kit makes one less thing that relies on an app. Love that this recharges USB-C and how it has a premium feel. must have for this Neewer slider
