LG Magic Remote MR20GA Replacement Remote for 2018–2020 TVs

The LG Magic Remote MR20GA (AKB75855501) is a replacement smart remote for select 2018–2020 LG OLED and NanoCell TVs, with dedicated Netflix and Prime Video buttons plus Google and Alexa voice control compatibility.

If your original LG pointer remote is lost, damaged, or no longer responsive, the MR20GA offers the same Magic Remote experience—point-and-click navigation, wheel/OK selection, and built-in voice activation—for many LG sets from 2018 through 2020. This model fits a wide range of series (GX, CX, NANO models and more) but will not pair with LG TVs manufactured in 2021 or later, so confirming your TV’s model year before purchasing is essential.

Which LG TVs work with this MR20GA remote?

The MR20GA (AKB75855501) is designed to pair with LG Smart TVs produced in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Compatible families include OLED (ZX, WX, GX, CX, BX), NanoCell (NANO99, NANO97, NANO91, NANO90, NANO85, NANO81, NANO80), and specific UN series like UN85 and UN73.

What controls and convenience features does this remote provide?
