Logitech Harmony 900 review: Logitech Harmony 900

Logitech Harmony 900

Sleek design, in terms of cosmetics and ergonomics; PC programmable; excellent button layout and design that now includes new Blu-ray-centric buttons; high-resolution LCD that offers a touch-screen interface and touch-sensitive buttons for navigation...

Price will scare off some buyers; PS3 control requires add-on dongle; dearth of user-programmable multi-device macros will frustrate advanced users.

The Logitech Harmony 900 is an impressive universal remote but it loses some of its luster with the release of the Harmony Ultimate, which replaces it in the Harmony line.

Review: Logitech Harmony 900 Universal Remote

Logitechs Harmony Universal Remote feels good in hand, though you may never come to know that if the convoluted, frustrating setup for it drives you...

Beautiful build quality. Blasts both IR andRF signals. Excellent phone support has you talking to a technicianin moments. And you’ll need it

ComplexPC software installation and configuration required for setup. Manymodern (and older) A/V units missing from product database. NoBlu-ray player category. Completely befuddled by Roku’s Netflix box.No rhyme or reason behind the preset touchscreen...

Logitech Harmony 900 Universal Remote ControlReview

Logitech makes a good remote even better by adding RF capabilities so it works through walls.

Although the inability to transfer existing devices and activities from another Harmony remote is a bummer, and the lack of macro support is a bit surprising, the fact is that the Harmony 900 is the most flexible, easiest to use and simplest to program...

Universal remote with radio frequency

Many reviewers say that the Logitech Harmony 900 offers one chief advantage over the widely praised Logitech Harmony One (*Est. $180) -- the inclusion of radio frequency (RF) support. That means that the Logitech Harmony 900 can communicate with AV...

Radio frequency and infrared signals, quick web-based setup process, color touch screen, sleek design

Expensive, overkill if you only have a few AV components, glossy case shows fingerprints and dust, rF range not as long as claimed, can't create custom macros

Logitech Harmony 900 Universal Remote Review

This past holiday season, my wife and I remodeled our basement putting in a relatively nice media room with fancy in-the-wall speakers, A/V receiver, big LCD TV, Blu-ray player, AppleTV, and Nintendo Wii. All of those components having their own remote...

Well made ; Ergonomic design ; Great button layout ; High resolution touch screen ; Highly programmable via computer ; Controls up to 15 devices ; Included RF system

Logitech Harmony 900 Universal Remote Review

The Logitech Harmony 900 is the updated Logitech Harmony One, which marries a traditional button remote with a capacitive touchscreen for expanded functionality. What makes this better are the charging dock and the RF to IR control adapters.

If you've played with the Harmony One you should know what this remote feels like. The number keys are on the bottom, the navigation keys are in the middle and the activity keys are near the top. The touchscreen is responsive enough, and can scroll...

Logitech Harmony 900 Universal Remote

Setup compatible at myharmony.com ; Sleek design& excellent build quality ; Touchscreen & physical key combo ; Keys have differing designs for better touch location ; RF module included in package ; Dock for charging remote

It costs a whole lot of money ; Doesn't get along with Mac OS X ; Very glossy body, for the most part

Harmony in the home: Logitech Harmony 900

Unlike traditional remotes, the Harmony 900 can shoot through walls and around corners. It comes with a radio-controlled infrared repeater, called a ‘blaster', that can live in the next room – pointed at hidden AV gear such as a home theatre amplifier...

Easy to use; wireless repeater

Expensive
