All HDMI PlayStations can read control signals from the HDMI receiver i.e. can be controlled by the TV remote, though running third party apps (such as Netflix) would be problematic with a TV remote because for some stupid reason Sony does not allow apps to exit(3) so you can start anything with a TV remote but if it's a non-builtin player you need a PS remote or a controller to bring up the system menu and kill the app.
