Remote broken? Did the dog decide it's his new chew toy? Or maybe coffee spilled on it... it happens.

Original or Clone? Let's Break It Down
Many people ask where to buy TV remotes in Israel that won't rip them off. The market is flooded. From cheap plastic that falls apart in your hand to smart remotes that cost as much as half a screen. Now, in 2026, our screens are super smart. So, the best TV remotes to buy depend on your needs, not necessarily the most expensive.
For example, do you have an LG TV in the living room? You absolutely need an original Magic Remote. Period. The voice search, the mouse that moves on the screen - alternatives just don't do it well. Same goes for a Samsung TV remote. Look for the original with Bluetooth. But... if it's a screen in the bedroom or kids' room? A cheap alternative remote will do the job perfectly. It does what it needs to do, and these are generally cheap TV remotes that do exactly what's required - change channels and adjust volume.

It ranges from 30 shekels for something basic and universal, up to around 200+ for original ones from top brands.

Quick Comparison: Original vs. Universal/Alternative
| Remote Type | Model Compatibility (How it Works) | Coding and Setup | Voice Search and Mouse | Average Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Original Remote (Official Importer) | Works perfectly for your model. 100% compatibility. | Not needed. Usually, just insert batteries and press OK. | Yes (if supported by the screen, of course). | Relatively high (but worth the peace of mind). |
| Alternative / Compatible Remote | Designed like the original, adapted for a specific brand (e.g., all Samsung screens). | Usually works immediately, rarely requires a long press for synchronization. | Usually none. Standard infrared. | Low - Medium. Recommended TV remotes for those looking to save. |

Questions and Answers (FAQ) - Everything You Need to Know Before Adding to Cart
How do I know which remote fits my TV?
Easiest way - look at your TV model (there's a sticker on the back with letters and numbers). Here at TopMarket, we detail in each remote's description which series it fits. It's always best to search by brand (LG, Hisense, etc.) and compare a picture of your old remote to the picture on the website. Looks the same? It's probably the one.
Do the remotes come with batteries?
In the vast majority of cases - no. Manufacturers don't include batteries in the box to prevent acid leaks during long storage. In short, when you come to buy, just add a pack of AA or AAA batteries to your cart so you don't end up at home with a new remote you can't use.
What's the difference between an original remote and an alternative remote?
An original remote is manufactured by the TV company (official importer) and has all the smart functions - Bluetooth, microphone for voice commands, durable plastic. An alternative is designed almost the same, costs much less, but usually transmits only via infrared (you need to point directly at the screen) and without voice search.
How long does delivery take?
We know you need the remote now. That's why we have options for fast delivery to your home or to collection points near you. Usually, it's a matter of a few days. Those who are really in a hurry can also check the self-pickup option if available in local stock.
How do you program a universal remote?
It's not as complicated as it sounds. The remote comes with a sheet full of brand codes. Press and hold the setup button (SET), type in your brand's code, and that's it. There's also an automatic scan method where the remote searches for the frequency on its own until the TV turns off.
Is there a warranty on TV remotes?
Of course. Original remotes get an official importer's warranty as is standard in the market, usually for one year. Alternative ones also have a basic warranty. And if you bought one, got home, and realized it's not the right remote? Our return policy is simple - don't brutally open the packaging, talk to customer service, and we'll exchange it for the correct model.
