Reviews around channel (4.37 of 5)

  • When you have connected your remote to your cable box/provider, you can select a list of favorite channels
  • The issue I have been having with it is the preset "favorite" channels
  • Setting up the remote was a breeze, and adding favorite channels was incredibly easy.
  • Love this remote, but the touchscreen sometimes detects a swipe when none was intended, which means you end up not being able to enter the channel number etc.
  • 4 stars because the Ultimate does not support the PlayStation 4 as of

Reviews around work (4.02 of 5)

  • Absolute garbage, the remote will suddenly quit working, or they will force an update on you and you're starting from scratch.
  • The remote works well with all my devices but without the ability to upgrade firmware, devices or to just sync it means that will only work for the current setup I have
  • This remote works perfectly 60% of the time... which lulls you into a sense of technological bliss... and then everything falls apart... leaving you feeling despondent, angry, frustrated and alone.
  • This is a remote of the good - works devices well, and is fairly simple.
  • Connectivity has been great so far with the RF working great

Reviews around setup (3.96 of 5)

  • Setup was a little finicky at first, but once you get everything programmed, it's all pretty intuitive after that
  • Setup is brainless and, it worked pretty good until I upgraded my stereo
  • Initial setup was difficult because the program kept locking up my computers.
  • Probably the easiest setup I've had with any Harmony product.
  • I have a pretty complex home theater setup that had a Universal Remote Control programmed professionally.

Reviews around harmony (3.94 of 5)

  • Overall, this has not been the best Harmony remote at all
  • (Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard) and a secondary remote for guests or
  • This is my 3rd Harmony remote and by far the most annoying to setup.
  • I tried the Harmony Smart Control first but that unit would not work because I needed a remote with a built-in IR blaster to control the TV
  • Our Harmony 880 finally started to die on us after years of service

Reviews around feature (3.87 of 5)

  • Controlling your PS3 with the same remote is great but for me the most valuable feature is the Android or iOS
  • I would like to upgrade my 900 to this new modern version of a Harmony remote but the missing feature is that "favorites" are no longer tied to an Activity
  • The Ultimate has a vibrating feature that alerts you when using the touch screen functions letting you know the command was received
  • But, aside from the loss of sync, the worst feature of the remote system is that it is actually difficult to use.
  • The universal remote features always work (once programmed)

Reviews around tv (3.81 of 5)

  • Love this remote, works all my smart tv functions and very easy to use.
  • Online set-up/macros were easier than on the first Harmony I had, and the only hiccup came when I set the wrong TV input on one activity...operator error
  • I spent three days trying to configure this remote to control my new Samsung smart TV and Samsung sound bar
  • Had a logitech in the past but upgraded to a whole new tv and sound system and disaster hit.
  • I have a new Samsung 75 inch Smart TV and a pioneer receiver

Reviews around control (3.79 of 5)

  • This remote includes an IR transmitter right on the remote (not found on the Logitech 915-000194 Harmony Smart Control with Smartphone App and Simple Remote - Black), so you can have the remote use RF for some components and IR for others.
  • The RF hub solved my problems with IR remote signals giving very inconsistent control
  • Now the remote control doesn't work at all, just a screen with the model number on it and all the buttons are dead
  • Really all you get for $200 that I can tell is a touchscreen on the remote and a bulkier remote control with a battery you have to keep charged.
  • The less expensive Harmony remote that I first tried Logitech 915-000194 Harmony Smart Control with Smartphone App and Simple Remote - Black didn't have an RF transmitter built into

Reviews around product (3.66 of 5)

  • Overall this is a great product and everything works flawlessly
  • This product may be great, but it useless to me and going back.
  • so I think its a great product, but I liked better the old designThanks
  • The IDIOTS who work at Logitech need to bring the Harmony One back, and get rid of this terrible terrible product
  • I've had this remote for over 3 months now and it is hands now the worst product I have pruchased from Logitech

Reviews around screen (3.36 of 5)

  • Biggest complaint is I do not like the touch screen for the Fire TV functions
  • The screen on the remote is responsive and works like that of an iPhone with fingertip control
  • The screen is gorgeous and I like the lighter feel of the remote
  • I do like the favorites screen, unlike some others here, I use that a lot.
  • The awkward touch screen and the somewhat confusing menu made it hard for me to recommend it

Reviews around thing (3.16 of 5)

  • The BEST THING EVER about this remove is the free app to also work the remote from your smartphone.
  • The setup is super easy, one of my favorite things about this remote is how easy it is to setup and to add to...the most painful thing is to get the model numbers of your equipment
  • One thing I really like is that I do not have to point the remote at any equipment, or even be in the same room
  • all past remote control issues have been resolved, and my guests can operate things without creating headaches!The only thing I don't like, and I REALLY don't like it, is the method of programming and organizing your channels.
  • Another thing I wanted to give you a heads up on , if you use custom channel logos it may look like it did not work on the remote (you might just see numbers at first

Reviews around change (2.38 of 5)

  • Easy integration with every device we had, easy one button changes between TV (cable), Roku, Pandora, AppleTV, anything.
  • As an example of the ease of use, one touch of the screen item titled "Watch Apple TV" automatically switches on the Apple TV unit and the TV, as well as changes the TV input to allow viewing.
  • This one will extend to wherever my wifi is and works pretty much anywhere outside the house as well as in
  • Touch screen is too sensitive causing accidental function changes from just grabbing the remote that can ruin a movie especially if your watching something you had paused and now you missed the last 20 minutes
  • Finally I have been able to program a single button to switch modes to my DVR as well as to reach Netflix

Reviews around lack (2.35 of 5)

  • Some of the times when it did work, commands stopped working as if the activity was forgotten and had to start over.
  • First off, the lack of an easily accessible number pad is inexcusable.
  • I failed to ask sufficient questions so the lack is my fault
  • To remedy the lack of hard buttons, Harmony has provided the ability for the User to designate two commands for each hard button
  • Finally, the lack of a hard "Skip" button is a pain; it has been replaced by a long press on the rewind/fast-forward button, which, if you aren't paying attention, will inevitably lead to unwanted actions.

Reviews around bite (2.12 of 5)

  • The old harmony 900 required a bit of a "push" on the screen to get things to activate.
  • I highly recommend this for all techies out here looking to simplify their life a bit.
  • The replacement works a little bit better; however, there's still intermittent issues which make this remote only friendly to the most technical of folks.
  • I was a bit ..weary and had difficulty installing the last device.
  • I was a bit skeptical about the remote being touch enabled but it has worked out great so far

Reviews around pad (2.00 of 5)

  • Now that the remote is working as I'd hoped I rescind my first entry and raise the rating to 4 stars.
  • The number pad is now on the touch screen which is totally annoying.
  • Job number one for Logitech should be to provide a firmware update that makes the number pad an additional tray like the one's detailed above ASAP.Second, I sometimes want to have two activities active at the same time, for example, have my Xbox and cable active at the same time so that I can toggle between the two.
  • This one will extend to wherever my wifi is and works pretty much anywhere outside the house as well as in
  • Some of the times when it did work, commands stopped working as if the activity was forgotten and had to start over.

Reviews around connection (1.75 of 5)

  • Of course, some clever folks might find just the right battery for this remote, and figure out the proper connection to make it yourself at home, but that's a technical job and most users aren't going to go that far for a remote control
  • The remote unit itself works great, unfortunately the hub loses its connection with the wifi every 10 minutes.
  • I have it connected to my amazon Alexa and the connection is very cool!I had a small issue with the configuration where it was turning on my tv and fireplace all at the same time
  • Switching to the right HDMI connection when you select the new activity
  • With this one it losses connection with the device too often

Reviews around finger (1.69 of 5)

  • Programmable buttons are also small, requiring precise fingering.
  • Then the screen itself allows you to drag your fingers left and right to fast rewind/forward or skip rewind/forward (if you don't pick up your finger right away)
  • I'm now on day four and fingers crossed it will not crash on me
  • My husband’s only complaint is his “fat fingers” accidentally hitting other things on the screen.
  • All the ffwd, play, rewind buttons are above the screen and require and awkward finger walk or hand trick and a quick glance to access.

Reviews around people (1.61 of 5)

  • Sure it can do brilliant colors, but the clever people at Logitech chose to make the default as difficult to read as possible
  • People are complaining about the buttons separated up top, but I have not had any issues with them at all
  • Bluetooth is not that thats important to me but to people using PS3 as media server it a big bonus.
  • I got used to it but other people would always have problems.
  • people are complaining about the lack of hard buttons and the fact that the transport buttons are on the top of the remote

Reviews around review (1.60 of 5)

  • I had read negative reviews on the Harmony Touch and this feature seems to address those complaints.
  • I read some of the negative reviews before purchasing the Harmony Ultimate remote with hub
  • Reading the reviews this either works or it is problematic

Reviews around key (1.44 of 5)

  • I like the small charge cradle, compact/ergonomic feel of the remote, and the option of using both hard keys and the touch screen
  • It takes upwards of 4 seconds to change a channel by using the screen, and easily that long if you use the up/down channel rocker, and you can't enter channel numbers directly as it doesn't have any number keys
  • As I tend to use favorites for the channel guide, it isn't a big deal, especially with the speed improvements, which make the 0-9 soft keys easy to access
  • One of my biggest challenges is not having the hard number keys.
  • Cons: no hard keys for numbers, screen only swipes on main section which can result in accidentally hitting a key

Reviews around piece (1.33 of 5)

  • What a useless waste of almost $200... do not waste your money on this cheap piece of plastic garbage.
  • We had a professional do the install and program our initial remote- a $400 irritating, marginal piece of crap (genesis or something)
  • This is the poorest physically designed piece of Logitech equipment I own (I own and use quite a few)
  • It is the most aggravating and worthless piece of technology I have ever purchased
  • Nobody seems to make the one piece remote I would like.

Reviews around model numb (1.18 of 5)

  • Software downloaded perfectly to a MAC and then you have to select the devices you want to control, you search for them with a model number and it found every device perfectly
  • Now the remote control doesn't work at all, just a screen with the model number on it and all the buttons are dead
  • You can search for devices to control by their exact brand and model number instead of trying 20 codes that might or might not work.
  • With this set up, you do have to input the model number of your device
  • It wants the brand name and model number of each component
