Meh. I've got both. They have good and bad but I find the app to be quicker to use. Feature menus are easier to access and I don't have to remember soft key acronyms. I do like the remote for punching buttons from memory though. I've tried the app on both my phone and tablet and find it easier to use on the phone. It's less bulky.
To each is own though. I've grown up through the computer revolution so using apps and a touch screen are second nature to me.
