Crafted from silicone, Elago's Siri Remote R5 Case is designed to protect your Siri Remote from drops and drops, as well as scratches and dings.
A wide cutout on the front gives you access to all the buttons, and a bottom cutaway allows you to plug in a Lightning cable for convenient charging. It also includes an optional wrist lanyard.
The case also features an optional back that provides a slot where you can slip an AirTag, which helps to prevent losing your remote in the couch cushions. Of course, you'll need to provide your own AirTag, which will run you $25 if you purchase it directly from Apple.
This case is only compatible with the second-generation Siri Remote and will not fit other Apple TV remotes.
The Elago Siri Remote R5 case is currently available only in black and costs $14.95.

Also, remote cases with AirTag holders are available on Amazon for half the price.
Why? Serves no purpose in a remote and they've admittedly ceded the game controller market by making ATV work with virtually every controller on the market.
Overall I don’t hate the new remote but I could care less about a mute button. I can just pause it
