But if you are in the market for one, and care about parental controls, I would recommend buying the longer 8BitDo remote with the number pad.
I bought the shorter 8bitDo remote without a number pad (even though it was more expensive than the bigger one at the time, cause I figured the smaller one will be more convenient). I regret that decision now, and it's too late to return it.
There are two issues - if you are using a number lock on the Xbox startup log in screen, you cannot enter the number without the actual controller. So I have to go pick up the controller, log in, turn it off and then use the remote. Xbox UI doesn't allow you to navigate to the numbers with the remote. 8BitDo remote has the ABXY buttons but it does not have the trigger buttons, so you cannot punch in all digits.
The second issue is that on most streaming apps, if you lock out profiles via a number lock, without having numbers on the remote you have to navigate to the numbers and press enter; which makes the code decipherable. On remotes with numbers on it you can simply enter the number without your choices showing up on screen.
Again - this is an issue only applicable to folks who care about parental controls. But thought I'll share my experience in case anyone finds it helpful.

I have a fire 4K. My Xbox series X is faster and does not have annoying amazon ads.

I needed this since my Xbox is my only 4k Blu-ray player but disc controls using the gamepad is unreasonably terrible on Xbox. This has made the experience much nicer to the point that I'm actually watching my discs again.
Can your Fire 4K play Blu-Rays?

It has better field of view in my experience. Plus, it has allowed me to place Xbox on far side of my entertainment center while maintaining usage of my Xbox media remotes.

Does it work for Series X? I found this in the QA section (copy pasting below) -
Q: Anyone know if this will work with the xbox series x and the universal remote control for xbox one, xbox one s & xbox one x,standard ir remote?
A: RESPONSE FROM MANUFACTURER-CABLE MATTERS:
No, this IR repeater cable will not work with the Xbox Series X or the remote control for Xbox one.

I verified the all of the numbers are accounted for when I decided to keep this remote. But the numbers are certainly more convenient. And that's reason enough to look into the 8bitdo Long Remote for $20.
