Samsung TV replacement remote BN59-01301A

The no-setup design is the main draw: insert two AAA batteries and, for a compatible Samsung TV, the BN59-01301A is ready to use without programming. That makes it a practical replacement if the original remote is missing or no longer working. It is an infrared remote described as compatible with most Samsung TVs, including LED, LCD, HDTV, and 3D models. The key detail is “most,” not every Samsung set, so matching your TV model matters before you buy.

Key points

This remote is listed as a replacement for BN59-01199F and BN59-01289A remotes, as well as BN59-01301A. Examples of compatible TV models in the supplied list include UN50NU7100FXZA, UN55NU6080FXZA, and UA43NU7100KXXA. Those examples give you a starting point, but they are not a guarantee for an unlisted model.

The stated infrared transmission distance is more than 8 m/26 ft, and the listed response time is 0.2 seconds. It also has a lightweight, ergonomic design and an ABS body. These details point to a straightforward everyday remote rather than a model with extra features or a more elaborate setup process. A solid pick if you want to replace a compatible remote and get back to basic TV control quickly.

Best use cases

This is aimed at Samsung TV owners who need a replacement for a lost, damaged, or unresponsive remote. For example, if you sit down to watch TV and the original remote no longer works, the setup is simple: insert the batteries and try it with your set. From the way it is set up, it suits someone who wants a ready-to-use infrared replacement rather than a remote that needs programming.

Ten en cuenta que the listing says it fits most types of Samsung TVs, not that it has been confirmed for every model. If your TV’s model number is not among the examples, use the full compatibility information before choosing. If you need controls beyond those of a basic infrared remote, the supplied details do not establish that this one offers them.

Tips for day-to-day use

Keep the TV model number handy when checking compatibility, especially if you are replacing a remote with a different BN59 number. Once you have the remote, insert two AAA batteries and test it from your usual viewing spot. The stated range is useful context for a typical living-room setup, though the information provided does not specify how walls or other obstacles affect infrared operation.

It might not be a great match if your Samsung TV model is not confirmed as compatible, or if you are looking for a replacement with additional functions that are not listed here. The product details focus on basic infrared control, quick response, and a no-programming setup.

Questions before you buy

Does it need to be programmed? No programming is required according to the listing, insert two AAA batteries to start using it with a compatible TV.

Which TVs are listed as compatible? It is described for most Samsung TVs, including LED, LCD, HDTV, and 3D models. Several specific model numbers are provided, but the list is not reproduced in full here.

What range and response time are stated? The listing gives a transmission distance of more than 8 m/26 ft and a response time of 0.2 seconds.

When it makes sense

Choose the BN59-01301A when you want a simple, no-programming replacement and your Samsung TV is confirmed as compatible. Its appeal is convenience: add the required batteries and avoid a setup process. If you cannot verify your model, or need functions beyond those described for this infrared remote, a replacement with confirmed compatibility or more clearly specified controls is the safer direction.
