There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I've added my Hue lights bridge, Smartthing Hub, and Nest Thermostat. It was simple, but this remote does so much more there has to be a learning curve. I think the software is very intuitive, but it is a little buggy. Remember the old Harmonys were buggy too, but once you get something working your set. If you have a Smartthings Hub and can configure that device, this will be a snap.
Pros: Flexibility; ability to add activities from iPad and no need to connect to computer to update (uses wifi); ability to control lights for each activity (setting different scenes - although it doesn't actually use the Hue scenes); no number pad (I thought this was a deal breaker, but you don't need it - if you need you can get to it); ability to simply program Roku to launch right into Netflix, Amazon, Hulu etc; allows remote to set mood with lights even if you don't want to start TV; allows 50 favorite channels and true touch pad allows you to swip to scroll; robust favorite channel selector with most all channels already having icons (adding favorites in old remotes was a pain, and you had to find images to import for most channels); remote can finally send IR, RF, and blue tooth commands, blaster is incredibly powerful; finally - programming from the coach! (I'm sure there are many more pluses)
Cons: some will say no number pad (I don't agree, I don't miss it at all); does not support dual band wifi (I like my iPad to connect using 5Ghz A/C connection to allow 150 Mbps download, but it's only supports 2.4); favorite channels can only be tied to one 'watch TV' activity; iPad software is buggy, but again, you only need to get something setup once - then it's good forever. I'm sure there are more cons, but these are the ones I've found so far.
Love the remote. If you have comcast boxes make sure you find the hack to modify page-up and page-down to do the 30 second skip. Then add these functions to fast forward and rewind buttons. The hack is just entering a series of numbers to change the skip from five minutes to 30 seconds. Don't let people who have never worked with programmable remotes scare you off. The rewards are worth the learning curve - don't give up too soon, and call support if you need (I think you get 90 days of free support). This is plenty of time to have this remote figured out (I have mine 95% configured in one day).
As I learn more I may update this review - I'm interested what others think.
If you're having trouble and reading this, download and install the 'MyHarmony Application' for Windows. Launch it, but do not press anything other than ALT+F9 - perform the firmware update and reset procedure then proceed with the setup using the phone app if you have issues.
Since it's kind of unfair to the device to review it using a "what if" scenario, I gave it 5 stars (and avoided the "what if my mother had to set this up" scenario, and since she can't even use the cable remote properly - that scenario is bother unrealistic and again, unfair).
On to the remote itself:
Coming from a Harmony 1100, with wireless extender, this thing is night and day. I'll explain:
Convenience:
+ No more sticking RF extenders on IR ports on devices individually. The IR blaster has a very impressive range, and the hub itself is a blaster!
+ No more connecting both the extender AND the remote to the PC individually to perform updates.
+ No more tweaking, making notes and then performing said updates (the remote will tweak your settings, on the fly if something didn't setup correctly).
Performance:
+ No more lag using the buttons (which causes repeated key strokes or missing ones).
+ The new IR blasters are extremely responsive; keystrokes are registered immediately - no more repeated keystrokes either.
+ Remote can communicate 'natively' with my gaming consoles (PS3, PS4, Xbox One).
- Remote CAN'T communicate via WiFi to a Windows PC (yet?). Really big missed opportunity here since they already developed a iPhone app for remotely moving the mouse - why not integrate it here? Odd.
Usability:
+ Many more hard buttons (vs. the 1100), light and easy to use one handed.
+ Help menu doesn't just fix the remote's missing commands one time, it actually learns and adjusts the activity settings.
+ The Windows app is much more straight forward for configuring the remote and assigning buttons.
- The touch screen is nice, but the performance leaves a lot to be desired. Swiping and accidentally hitting menu items happen a lot for me. Though to their credit, the 'lock screen' is a nice touch to prevent this while you're just idle with the remote.
I haven't experienced a bug with the remote yet - I read that earlier FW had a lot of bugs, mine looks ok. This is definitely not a novice device to setup but the iPhone setup app is slick and is a huge step in the right direction. Just wished the Windows app worked just as well out the gate.
With such great core feature upgrades (software, key stroke performance, IR blaster performance and setup), I couldn't help but give this is 5 star even with the issues I had.
Unlike the original series of remotes and software, I didn't feel like I had to start from scratch every update or abandoned inside the setup if I got lost. Once that horrific pairing experience was done, the activity setup imported all of my activities and devices from my old Harmony device and running through the activities tweaked the plaguing issues I had with my Sony XBR850C TV.
So once you overcome pairing, the remote finally shines. Have a bit of patience, and this baby will pay off. Good luck!
Top reviews from other countries
Even though a few of my devices are legacy-grade, it recognized all of them. It's a real pleasure to switch from watching TV to watching Netflix on Apple TV with one click instead of multiple clicks on multiple devices. After programming, Harmony automatically selects all the settings necessary to switch from one activity to another. I'm a happy buyer.
There are a couple of annoying things. The buttons on the remote itself don't have enough of a relief profile to be able to identify by touch which button you are looking for. The differences between the raised buttons and the remote's surface are very subtle, but I suppose I will get used to that. I'm accustomed to navigating by feel and muscle memory, but this remote makes that a little more difficult.
On the programming side, I wan't able to define an HDMI1 port - of all things - for my Yamaha AV Receiver. The list started at HDMI2. Twice I followed the instructions to "teach" the remote a new control, and that worked - HDMI1 was added. But when I went to the Watch TV activity, it wasn't there; just HDMI 2 through 6, like before. I dealt with this by switching the HDMI cable to a different port. Luckily I had one available.
Final point, after using the unit for about a week, it sometimes doesn't choose the HDMI port you programmed for the activity selected. This has only happened twice. It seems to "remember" the port you last used when you turned everything off. If you start up using a different activity, the port is sometimes, not always, the last one you used. Toggling it back and forth between the original activity and the new activity seems to resolve the issue. It hasn't happened often enough for me to identify a pattern.
For me, this would be a five-star review except for these minor things. But I took the batteries out of 7 previous remotes and tossed them all in a drawer. (The wife said, can we throw them away? HaHa. Nice try.)
