RMT-TX300E 1-493-314-11 remote for Sony Bravia W660E and X7000E series
Built for the 2017 Bravia generation
Sony's W660E and X7000E televisions shipped with the RMT-TX300E, also identified by part code 1-493-314-11, and this replacement serves that generation directly. Compatible screens include the KDL32W660E, KDL40W660E and KDL49W660E, along with the 4K models KD43X7000E, KD49X7000E, KD55X7000E, KD65X7000E and the KD60X6700E and KD-70X6700E. Both hyphenated and unhyphenated model formats appear in the list, so a KD-55X7000E owner is just as covered as someone whose sticker reads KD55X7000E. Matching this handset to those sets restores full factory control. This generation marked Sony's push of 4K into the mid-range, so plenty of these sets remain daily drivers in Australian homes nearly a decade on.
Light, comfortable and simple to live with
The design brief for this handset was ease of use: it is lightweight with an ergonomic shape that sits comfortably in the hand, and the soft buttons need only a light press to register, with good elasticity and a crisp response. That combination makes it particularly friendly for children and elderly users who struggle with stiff or cluttered remotes. No programming, tuning or code entry is needed at any point; insert batteries, which are not supplied, and the remote transmits commands to a compatible Bravia instantly with solid, reliable response. Robust construction matters in homes where remotes get dropped, sat on and buried in toy boxes, and this unit is built to shrug off that treatment.
Variants and neighbouring Sony generations
The same part is listed in another format as the Sony Bravia RMT-TX300E 1-493-314-11 replacement, worth comparing before checkout. There is also a universal remote to suit Sony Bravia RMT-TX300E for buyers who prefer that option. If your television belongs to the X8500F or A8G generation instead, the Sony RMF-TX310P IR remote without voice function is the one to match, covering the KD-65X8500F, KD-55X8500F, KD-49X8500F and KD-55A8G. Three listings, three slightly different purchases, but all anchored to the same 2017 Bravia remote family, so the deciding factors are preference and price.
The Remote Factory, in brief
Behind this listing is The Remote Factory, an Australian specialist store dealing only in replacement remotes and key fobs, which is why obscure Sony part codes like 1-493-314-11 are searchable in its catalogue at all. All orders are dispatched within 24 hours; standard delivery then takes one to five working days around Australia and two to eight working days for New Zealand. Pay by Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Shop Pay or Apple Pay as it suits, knowing a 30-day return policy applies and contact@theremotefactory.com.au answers compatibility queries. A lost remote stops being a household problem within days rather than dragging on for weeks.
Frequently asked questions
Which Sony TVs does the RMT-TX300E 1-493-314-11 suit?
It fits the 2017 Bravia generation, specifically the KDL32W660E, KDL40W660E and KDL49W660E full HD sets and the KD43X7000E, KD49X7000E, KD55X7000E, KD65X7000E 4K models, plus the KD60X6700E and KD-70X6700E. If your TV's model code matches any of those, with or without the hyphen, this remote will operate it fully. Hyphenated and unhyphenated code formats are both listed, so either sticker style confirms compatibility.
Do I have to program this RMT-TX300E replacement to my TV?
No programming or tuning is involved. The remote works without complicated codes; you simply insert batteries, which are not supplied in the box, and it controls a compatible Bravia straight away. Transmission quality is solid, with commands registering from a light button press, so the experience matches the original handset from the first use.
Is this remote easy for elderly users or kids to handle?
Yes, that is one of its strengths. The body is robust yet light with an ergonomic grip, and the buttons are soft with good elasticity, needing only gentle pressure to respond. Those traits make it particularly suitable for children and older family members who find heavy or overly complex remotes frustrating to use day to day.
How soon will this Sony remote arrive after I order?
Dispatch occurs within 24 hours of purchase from the Australian warehouse. Standard delivery usually lands in one to five working days within Australia, or two to eight working days for New Zealand addresses. Orders carry a 30-day return policy, and the support address contact@theremotefactory.com.au is available if the remote needs exchanging for a different part.
