The best universal remote you can buy

Juggling a bunch of remotes when all you want to do is watch some TV is a pain in the neck. A good universal remote solves this problem for you, and might even do some things you didn’t expect. We tested the remotes available to buy now and found the best one to get.

oh wait.... it's $349.99 on Amazon. that's more than my tv, yo.
the review was nice tho

350 bucks... I think I wait the 10 seconds it takes me to unlock my phone, launching the app and waiting for it to connect ;-)

I will agree, this remote is awesome. I owned the harmony one and upgraded to this model a few months ago. With Alexa (IFTTT) integration, that was the selling point for me. Also, being able control wifi and bluetooth devices definitely makes it a worthy update over to the Harmony One.

I love the battery life and feel of the Home Control Harmony. For me, it's the best of all worlds. Screen buttons on other Harmony remotes never feel as good or as fast as just plain buttons, and so I rarely used them anyway.

Have the Elite.. it's just amazing, no words to describe it really.

Hi. Thanks for your video. You know if I can control my curtains (I think they are IR or RF controlled) with the Armony 655 or Elite controllers? Thanks my friend

2:10 Actually, depending on your tv, you do get some limited functionality of the fire tv stick using the harmony 650. It seems to be communicating over HDMI with the IR receiver on my Samsung TV.

Using a Harmony Ultimate One myself, didn't realize they had a new top end model

I'm using the 650 and I love it. 😊

Phillips SRU 9600 Touch screen. 18years on and still rocking...😉

[Liltmacjizzy]

This needs to be updated yearly I always need a remote

[brandonsimmons]

I'm still holding onto my S6 because it has an IR blaster.

Who thought of that movie "Click It" 😂

My remote is the LG g3. Works great. It also makes phone calls.

[Blober]

Nothing is more painful than teaching your parents to use a new remote.

[thehellsage]

And you didn't even put the Savant Remote under consideration... Entirely disappointed.

What about the ultimate? You can get one on amazon for £80 (inc the hub) and other than the different UI has all the features of the elite. The only problem is the awkward play pause buttons
