Hello, @user_caec73! Thanks for bringing your equipment concerns to the community for assistance. I'm seeing your comments on other user posts as well, and I appreciate the steps you've taken so far to troubleshoot the delayed response between your remote and TV Box. This is definitely something we'd like to address, and I'm more than happy to help however I can! Have you checked the remote's battery life as one commenter suggested?

Yes I have, it was a brand new remote with energizer batteries. It turned out there was a issue in my area that has now been resolved. It did correct the voice remote function. But it is still slow in changing channels, and connecting to 3rd party apps. It's only a problem with X1 box, no problem on other TV's w/small cable box.

Thank you so much for those details, @user_caec73! I'm glad the known issue was resolved, but am still curious about the continued delay on the X1 TV Box. What other troubleshooting have you attempted for that box in particular?

Restarted box, by removing power plug, no change. Have done a refresh no change. This new X1 box is terrible. The older box was so much better.
