Replacement for Samsung BN59-01292A and BN59-01259E smart TV remotes
Covering a family of Samsung LED 4K UHD remote codes
Rather than serving one television, this handset substitutes for a whole cluster of Samsung remote part numbers used on LED 4K UHD smart screens. Listed codes are BN59-01259B, BN59-01260A and BN59-01270A, together with 01290A0, 1292A and 01274A. Samsung shared remote designs across many screen sizes within a generation, so one replacement unit like this restores control to a wide range of sets. Flip your faulty remote over, find the code on its label and compare it with that list to confirm the match. Shared designs were a deliberate Samsung strategy, keeping manufacturing simple while the televisions themselves changed panel sizes and features each year.
Why IR remotes make the easiest swaps
Infrared is the connection type here, which works in your favour: an IR handset never needs enrolling with the television, so there is no setup or programming of any kind. Slide in a pair of batteries, sold separately from the remote itself, and the smart hub, volume, source and channel controls respond on the first press. The box contains a single remote control. At this price point many households order one for the main screen and a second for the rumpus room set sharing the same remote code. That zero-configuration behaviour also makes the handset immune to the software updates that occasionally break app-based control methods.
Sorting between the Samsung codes in stock
When the label on your original shows a different number, there is almost certainly a dedicated listing for it. NU7170-era screens use the Samsung BN59-01303A remote for UE40NU7170 smart TVs, older plasma and LCD generations lean on the Samsung BN59-00863A BN5900863A smart LCD OLED remote, and anyone wanting voice control on a recent QLED can step up to the Samsung BN59-01357A voice remote replacement. Three different eras, three different handsets, one storefront. The store's Samsung section is organised around these part codes precisely because screen model numbers alone rarely identify the right handset.

Frequently asked questions
What part numbers does this Samsung replacement remote cover?
The compatibility list names Samsung remote codes BN59-01259B, BN59-01260A, BN59-01270A, 01290A0, 1292A and 01274A, all used across Samsung LED 4K UHD smart televisions. Because Samsung reused remote designs widely, matching the code from your original handset's label against this list is the most accurate way to confirm it suits your screen.
Is there any setup involved with this IR remote?
None whatsoever. The connection type is infrared, the same as the factory handset, so the television accepts its commands immediately without pairing, code entry or menu configuration. Load batteries and it is working. Note the package includes the remote control only, so a pair of cells needs to be on hand when it arrives.
Will all the smart hub buttons work like my original?
Yes, on compatible sets the layout mirrors the original remote, so smart hub access, source switching, channel and volume control and menu navigation all function as before. Nothing is remapped or approximated the way it can be on generic universal handsets, which means no relearning for the household and no missing functions during daily use.
What does delivery look like for this Samsung remote?
Every order is dispatched within 24 hours, and standard shipping typically arrives within one to five working days around Australia or two to eight working days in New Zealand. If the part number proves wrong for your television, the 30-day return policy applies; contact@theremotefactory.com.au handles returns and can suggest the correct code before you reorder.
