  • Touchscreen works best with two hands
  • Requires more direct line of site than previous models
  • Some buttons are difficult to reach with one hand. Charging station is not well designed.

  • Great ergonomics and button placement, cool and very usable color touch screen, tons of device support.
  • A little pricey.
  • 250 can sound like a lot to replace your current pile of remotes, but once you try it, youll never go back. This is Harmonys best remote yet....

  • Easy to use once programmed, Tons of programming options, Works well, Backlit buttons
  • Deep custom programming can be difficult, Components can get out of sync with activities
  • Unless you can’t live without the full touch screen coolness of the Harmony 1000, the new Harmony One remote is the best remote in the Harmony line. The MSRP of $249.99 may seem high until you realize how much the Harmony One simplifies your home th...
