review

By PJ Jacobowitz

Exit Logitech Harmony Remote 880, enter Logitech Harmony One. The welcome replacement to the excellent 880 keeps everything we loved (easy remote programming via computer software, ability to control multiple components/inputs with one button, and a color LCD display) and fixes the 880's biggest problem: button shape and placement. Logitech has completely revamped the keys by making them larger and easier to use, and the remote feels more comfortable in your hand. The $249.99 (direct) Harmony One also loses the 880's tiny buttons alongside the display and gains a higher-resolution LCD touch screen.

  • Price as Tested: $249.95 Direct

Bottom Line

Logitech's newest universal remote features better ergonomics and adds a gorgeous color touch-screen display, but still offers dead-simple programming and one-touch control over all your home-theater gear.

Pros

Excellent setup software. Color touch-screen LCD. Feels lighter and more comfortable than its predecessor. Better buttons.

Cons

Pricey. Touch screen requires you to look at the remote to be sure you hit the correct buttons. Glossy black finish shows fingerprints and is prone to smudges.
