Will it work with my Sony TV?

Only with select Sony models. Check your TV's model number against Sony's compatibility list before buying, since it is not a universal remote.

Does it need to be pointed at the TV?

No. It pairs over Bluetooth, so it works without a clear line of sight to the TV once paired.

The RMF-TX520U is the newer replacement part. If you are replacing a TX520B, Sony points to the TX520U as the substitute.

No. Units can ship with different shortcut buttons, so the streaming apps on yours may not match the ones shown.

No. This model has no microphone or voice search; it is a button remote.

The remote only. Batteries and pairing instructions are not included.
