Is there an alternate remote available for this tv? Magic remote is very hard for my parents to use. Also, is this tv able to connect to any type of Bluetooth keyboard?

The "magic remote" is not user-friendly for everyone. I had to get used to it. I have AT&T U-verse. I use that remote to select channels. Not aware of any different remote. I've not tried to find/use Bluetooth. It does work great with the Internet. It offers a lot of external interconnects. Dennis K.

I couldnt get it to show up in any bluetooth/wireless manager, thought my spectrum analyzer showed it to(most likely) be the same frequency as bluetooth/wifi/ cordless phones, but my guess would be it is proprietary, as to if it will work with your TV for me it seems very likely, it is a vizio remote and TV and similar to the original, if your TV used the same standard as mine(E3D320VX) then i would say it has a very good change of working, if not you can always return it for one that is made for your TV and call it false advertising "remote for 'Class Theater 3DTV'" doesnt work with my "Class Theater 3DTV", i bought this as a replacement for my DOA remote worked out of the box, no syncing or configuring I couldnt get it to show up in any bluetooth/wireless manager, thought my spectrum analyzer showed it to(most likely) be the same frequency as bluetooth/wifi/ cordless phones, but my guess would be it is proprietary, as to if it will work with your TV for me it seems very likely, it is a vizio remote and TV and similar to the original, if your TV used the same standard as mine(E3D320VX) then i would say it has a very good change of working, if not you can always return it for one that is made for your TV and call it false advertising "remote for 'Class Theater 3DTV'" doesnt work... » Read More I couldnt get it to show up in any bluetooth/wireless manager, thought my spectrum analyzer showed it to(most likely) be the same frequency as bluetooth/wifi/ cordless phones, but my guess would be it is proprietary, as to if it will work with your TV for me it seems very likely, it is a vizio remote and TV and similar to the original, if your TV used the same standard as mine(E3D320VX) then i would say it has a very good change of working, if not you can always return it for one that is made for your TV and call it false advertising "remote for 'Class Theater 3DTV'" doesnt work with my "Class Theater 3DTV", i bought this as a replacement for my DOA remote worked out of the box, no syncing or configuring « Show Less

Fire tv has its own remote You probably should check with Amazon fire about that

It's vizios basic smart tv remote. It has buttons go the apps and such. Does not have the keyboard if that's what you're asking about.

I think the standard remote will operate most of the features on the LN 5700. I was frustrated using the standard remote to set up the TV. It is easier for me to use the point and click feature of the magic remote rather than the down, over, enter, click of the standard remote

There must be some type of universal code or compatible TV??????? I thought I read it used a Samsung interface but I am trying to program my main Direct TV remote so I don't have to use 2 remotes. Hopefully someone will chime in with compatible info or some type of legit workaround in the mean time I'm back to hacking and trying to call the toll free number.

No not at all! The included remote allows you to access all options of the TV. HOWEVER navigating the internet and a few other things presents a bit of a challenge with the standard remote. The LG Magic remote makes things just a bit easier and faster, definitely a good addition/upgrade.

Cinda, upon reflection, I would purchase a Vizio remote through Amazon. If it doesn't work,odds are it can be returned for a refund. They are good about returns. Good luck. Hansford

I no longer have the TV to test. I do have a new Sony 65" Ultra HD TV now. It has 3 USB inputs. I tried 3 different keyboards in each input port and each time I got a message "does not support this USB device." All of my keyboards are Apple. They are from 2001, 2003, & 2008. I use a bluetooth keyboard with AppleTV but cannot get the TV to recognize it. Going thru the on screen guide I found that under "other devices" it did list USB. The only thing it had under it was external storage with the image of a thumb drive. It spoke about pictures. Try surfing to the on screen guide and see if it gives you the same info.

Sorry about that. I bought 2 remotes from Coby and they did not work. I tried to use Master remotes I had already and they did not work. I threw the TV out. It was a waste of my time. Coby did nothing!!! Don't buy a Coby anything!

I used the logictech bluetooth keyboard model y-x5A77 Logitech PlayStation 3 Cordless MediaBoard Pro it has worked like a charm, both the mouse and keyboard work perfectly, but some apps on the TV don't allow you to use the keyboard. It has to be fixed by the applicable company(hulu) and is not a flaw of the keyboard.

The TV works with any USB mouse or keyboard which works elsewhere. They are all standard. It definitely worked with mine. Keep in mind not all apps support both, I know for mouse at least it doesn't work in Youtube app for example. I don't find it useful at all over the touch remote. Instead, I would use a tablet instead for control like for Youtube which lets you search/control on the second device. The worst interface is controlling the mouse cursor by waving your hand in the air in front of the camera. Chromecast would probably be the best experience paired with a laptop.

No set up needed! I bought a $12 Vizio remote with the Qwerty key board on the back from Amazon and it work perfect on my 40" Vizio internet HDTV. In fact it is much better than the remote that came with the TV. The stock remote (no key board on back) had to be pointed right at the bottom left corner of the TV to work, while the new one just has to be pointed in the general area to work and the keyboard is sooo nice to use make searching faster and a pleasant experience.

Ours did not come with the magic remote--I thought I read a couple of reviews that said theirs did...but we've been really happy without it. I have set up my tablet to control the TV, and my laptop to be able to be viewed on the tv. It also has the USB ports, so really easy to put in a Flip Camera or USB drive to view photos/videos (or view from my laptop)

I think the remote actually connects via bluetooth. But you cannot connect other bluetooth devices to the tv.

Don't think it has bluetooth. Can use a USB keyboard. You might be able to add a USB bluetooth adapter to the TV. Good luck.

I'm sorry, I don't know either. I bought it to replace the exact remote that originally was included with my television and had worn out. How about emailing or calling Vizio directly?
