Find a replacement remote control for your Samsung TV or projector

Samsung TV and replacement Samsung Remote control

Losing your TV’s remote is a pain. Thankfully, there are replacements available from both Samsung and third-party companies. Or maybe you know exactly where your remote is, but you'd rather use your phone to control your Smart TV, Odyssey Ark, or Samsung projector. No matter your situation, we'll help you enjoy your favorite shows and movies again, even without your original remote control.

You can look for the specific remote that was included with your Samsung TV or projector, or you can purchase an inexpensive alternative.

Purchase the included remote

Remotes are not sold on Samsung.com; they are instead available on our parts website, samsungparts.com. There are many models of remotes (all with slight variations), but you can find the exact remote your TV/projector came with by searching for your model number and then scrolling through the list until you see the remote.

If you need help finding your model number, you can use the model number tool on our Support Site or check out our guide to TV model numbers.

Purchase an alternative remote

Remotes can vary in price for different models; however, our IR remotes work with all of our TVs and projectors. In other words, you can pick any IR remote you like and it will work, even if your model isn't listed as compatible with that remote.

Because of this, we recommend BN59-01301A as a replacement remote. This is one of the newer and cheaper models (around 15 dollars on samsungparts.com) and offers basic functionality, if that's all you need.

Purchase a universal remote

Most universal remotes will work with your Samsung TV or projector as well, such as those found on Amazon or possibly even the remote that was included with your cable or satellite box. If you buy a universal remote, make sure the remote says it is compatible with Samsung before you buy it.


ᶿ eligible devices include Galaxy Note10, Note10+, S10, S10+, S10e, Note9, Note8, S9, S9+, S8, S8+, S7, S7 Edge, S7 Active or select iPhone and Android devices. Select device and condition on trade in step.
