For your Android box or other HTPC, you can attach normal keyboard to it but it is kinda weird. It makes sense to go wireless and it makes even more sense to go small. Do you want to keep full sized keyboard on your table? No I wouln't want to. And then, that's only part of the problem. You need the mouse. OK, if your HTPC is properly confugured and stable, you'd need mouse just occasionaly. But you still need it. But you don't want to use keyboar and mouse at all times. You need keybpar only occasionaly as well. To type in a name of the movie in search box, for instance. And mouse when you play a game or need to do administration of your box. You'd ofcourse, want to use your HTPC with a remote. Because that is most convenient and simple way.


So we're up to 3 devices. Remote, keyboard and a mouse. What if we could replace all that with 1 device? It had to be small to be a remote so that means the keyboar wouldn't be that convenient as a full sized keyboard, but you won't write "War and Peace" on your HTPC.

Welcome Rii i25A. A combo device that is a remote (IR - for your TV) and remote (RF - for your PC) and keyboard (RF) and mouse (airmouse)... also with a built in microphone and earphone 3.5 mm jack!


The remote is well build. It fits nicely in the hand as the remote (portrait) and as a keyboar (landscape). The keys are good, a bit different feel on the spacebar because it probably has 2 switches cause it's longer, but nothing to worry about, just a slightly different fell when you press it in the middle as opposed on the key-end. The only thing that looks a bit strange is on-off switch which has a bit "loose" feeling, but it works OK.


The range is good, I am able to operate tvbox from across the room, let's say 3-4 meters.

The orange keys on the remote side are IR, because you can use them with your TV. All these keys are mappable, you can just read IR commands from your existing TV remote. So you can use this (if you map it logically) as the only remote for your TV and your TV box.

Air mouse takes a bit getting used to, but that's just the way it is. It is never gonna be as precise or practical as normal mouse but it is good enough for occasional use. When you turn the remote on, the airmouse is on by default so if you don't want to use it you must turn it off manually.

When off, only IR part works, for mouse and keyboard, you have to turn it on.


The battery life is excellent, for me it works 1-2 weeks on single charge, but I don't use it that much (1-2 hours a day at most). It charges pretty quickly, like 30-40 minutes.

As an added bonus, the remote has built in microphone so if you attach earphones to it, you can use it to talk on Skype etc.


There is nothing to setup on the software side. The problem with KODI is that some keys are not mapped. I tried mapping with KODI built in editor, but it didn't work. I don't know about windows, but on Android you need to be rooted and edit system files in order to map these keys, and for me it is not a big deal - I am always rooted on all my devices :)


So here is short manual how to remap the keys if you have this problem...
