Headphones in the remote is such a brilliant idea!

  Would love this feature on a standard universal remote.

    The problem is that the standard universal remote has one-way communication with the devices it controls. The Roku remote uses bluetooth to control the Roku, so adding audio was no big deal.

      The Roku 3 remote uses Wi-Fi Direct instead of bluetooth.

        Would love a smart tv that has the capability to send sound to my phone.

  Seriously. I have a smart TV, but I might buy this just for the remote headphones. Nice wireless headphones are at least as expensive as a roku box, but I already have nice wired headphones.

  Depends on the battery life of the remote. Most people wouldn't be too happy if they were changing their batteries every few weeks because they watched a few movies with headphones.
