RIP Logitech Harmony -- So, get this remote instead!

RIP Logitech Harmony -- So, get this remote instead!
I am a very long time user of Logitech Harmony Remotes. And I was really bummed when they announced they left the remote control business because there is really nothing else like them for those of us with complex systems.I set up a new system and needed a remote to replace the growing stack of remotes that my wife was juggling. I found this SofaBaton X1S and I am impressed so far after a couple days of use.I will give more details, but overall, I can't find anything with this remote that I can't do, and seems to have all the same functionality as my trusty Logitech Harmony Elite.FYI: there are currently TWO product listings for this remote on Amazon, from similar named sellers, for the same price. I can't tell what is different between the two based on those product pages.DESIGN- Albeit a simple design, I really like this remote. It has the basic buttons necessary, feels good in the hand. Not premium, but definitely not cheap. It does not have any of the soft rubber material that some Logitech remotes had, which are prone to rotting and feeling sticky over time.- The LCD screen is basic, but I like it and there is some customization (renaming and re-ordering devices and activities, ability to add a few icons, etc.).- There is a rolling button (for lack of a better description) that is separate from other buttons, controls use of the remote itself (by scrolling through the screen). This is intuitive and feels solid.- The remote and the hub use USB-C which is welcome.- The hub does have a light that is quite bright, which I had to put some tape over since it's being used in a bedroom.- Comes with two USB-A to USB-C cables, but only one power brick; so you'll need a second one to charge your remote (or unplug the hub while charging the remote).- Comes with breakout IR leads, which I have not needed to use, but absolutely appreciated for situations where you might need them.- The room I am using this has a basic set of devices, but I browsed some other options, seems like a wide range of devices are supported.- You can learn remote commands for devices which are not working correctly (I had to do this with the power commands for my TV) or for legacy devices which may not be in the library.PERFORMANCE- After setting up 5 devices and 4 activities (which took about 1 hour, to include troubleshooting), I have this remote working as solidly as my other set ups using Logitech remotes with similar, or bigger setups.- I had no problems pairing via Bluetooth to a Sony TV (although I find that using IR for this TV works better, which I think is a function of Bluetooth being buggy, nothing to do with this remote)- I have not used any WiFi components (I do use Philips Hue, but have not set that up yet)- I don't use Amazon Alexa or Google Home, so I cannot comment on that functionalityVALUE- For $150 (with the current deal), not a bad deal compared to the original Logitech Harmony Elite price (I paid $250 in 2017 -- now they go for MUCH more than that)- Given this reasonable price, and seemingly able to do everything the Logitech Harmony Elite does (which is now unavailable) this seems like a great deal.CONS- I wish there was a charging cradle for the remote.- I would appreciate a second charging brick, and I would prefer the bricks were USB-C instead of USB-A since all my stuff is going full USB-C nowadays.- I wish there was a way in software to dim or turn off the light on the hub.- Syncing the hub with the remote is slow, but TBH, it's just as slow as my Logitech Harmony Elite.- I think other reviews have commented on difficulty programming the remote; from my experience, it is no less cumbersome than using any of the Logitech remotes. Which is to say that it is hard. If you are not savvy with these things, and have no patience, then you will be frustrated. But, TBH, I don't know how the interface could be any easier given how complex of a job you are asking these devices to do.- It would be a nice touch to have a colour screen, but not necessary.- You won't be able to use voice commands & searches for things like with Xfinity or Apple TV, but the Logitech remotes (and probably every one else) don't support that either.- I am not certain, and I am not sure if it makes a difference, but I "think" the hub connects directly to your phone for setup, and not through WiFi (and then to your phone), which I wonder if that might be a problem under some circumstances that I can't predict right now.- It would be nice to support Apple HomeKit.- No customizable wallpaper for the LCD screen, but this isn't really necessary.

  • Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024
    I bought this 7 months ago to replace an old Logitech Harmony remote. I really liked my Harmony remote, and was disappointed to see they discontinued the line. After a good bit of research, the SofaBaton seemed like the most promising replacement.

    Setup was relatively simple and intuitive. I had it unboxed and all of my equipment and activities configured in under 30 minutes. Editing activities after the fact, such as adding delays to allow time for things to power on, was easy to do. Overall, I feel the setup was on par with Logitech, just different, as it had to be setup from a phone app rather than a PC.

    I recently ran into an issue with the remote. I reached out to support and they were quick to troubleshoot. After taking a short video recording of the issue, support made the process of sending a replacement very trouble free. Resyncing the new remote to my hub only took a couple clicks in the app, and holding 2 buttons on the remote.

    Usage of the remote has been outstanding. This one remote has replaced a table full of various remote controls. It has no trouble controlling any of my devices, other than an occasional delay controlling a Chromecast. It doesn't happen very often, and only lasts a couple seconds before it goes back to normal.

    The app has been easy to use and works exactly like the remote to control devices. It comes in handy when I forget to charge the remote.

    Overall, I most appreciate the simplicity and lack of physical buttons, while still having the ability to access the less used functions through the display and scroll wheel when needed. When I've had guests, they've been able to pickup the remote and power everything on and operate it without issue or "training". However, most will first press the display, expecting a touch screen, before trying to use the scroll wheel.

    The way the remote lights up, and the simple layout makes it easy to use during movie nights. The look and feel has a sense of quality to it, and I would not hesitate to recommend this remote to anyone looking to simplify their mess of remotes.

    I set up a new system and needed a remote to replace the growing stack of remotes that my wife was juggling. I found this SofaBaton X1S and I am impressed so far after a couple days of use.

    I will give more details, but overall, I can't find anything with this remote that I can't do, and seems to have all the same functionality as my trusty Logitech Harmony Elite.

    FYI: there are currently TWO product listings for this remote on Amazon, from similar named sellers, for the same price. I can't tell what is different between the two based on those product pages.

    DESIGN
    - Albeit a simple design, I really like this remote. It has the basic buttons necessary, feels good in the hand. Not premium, but definitely not cheap. It does not have any of the soft rubber material that some Logitech remotes had, which are prone to rotting and feeling sticky over time.
    - The LCD screen is basic, but I like it and there is some customization (renaming and re-ordering devices and activities, ability to add a few icons, etc.).
    - There is a rolling button (for lack of a better description) that is separate from other buttons, controls use of the remote itself (by scrolling through the screen). This is intuitive and feels solid.
    - The remote and the hub use USB-C which is welcome.
    - The hub does have a light that is quite bright, which I had to put some tape over since it's being used in a bedroom.
    - Comes with two USB-A to USB-C cables, but only one power brick; so you'll need a second one to charge your remote (or unplug the hub while charging the remote).
    - Comes with breakout IR leads, which I have not needed to use, but absolutely appreciated for situations where you might need them.
    - The room I am using this has a basic set of devices, but I browsed some other options, seems like a wide range of devices are supported.
    - You can learn remote commands for devices which are not working correctly (I had to do this with the power commands for my TV) or for legacy devices which may not be in the library.

    PERFORMANCE
    - After setting up 5 devices and 4 activities (which took about 1 hour, to include troubleshooting), I have this remote working as solidly as my other set ups using Logitech remotes with similar, or bigger setups.
    - I had no problems pairing via Bluetooth to a Sony TV (although I find that using IR for this TV works better, which I think is a function of Bluetooth being buggy, nothing to do with this remote)
    - I have not used any WiFi components (I do use Philips Hue, but have not set that up yet)
    - I don't use Amazon Alexa or Google Home, so I cannot comment on that functionality

    VALUE
    - For $150 (with the current deal), not a bad deal compared to the original Logitech Harmony Elite price (I paid $250 in 2017 -- now they go for MUCH more than that)
    - Given this reasonable price, and seemingly able to do everything the Logitech Harmony Elite does (which is now unavailable) this seems like a great deal.

    CONS
    - I wish there was a charging cradle for the remote.
    - I would appreciate a second charging brick, and I would prefer the bricks were USB-C instead of USB-A since all my stuff is going full USB-C nowadays.
    - I wish there was a way in software to dim or turn off the light on the hub.
    - Syncing the hub with the remote is slow, but TBH, it's just as slow as my Logitech Harmony Elite.
    - I think other reviews have commented on difficulty programming the remote; from my experience, it is no less cumbersome than using any of the Logitech remotes. Which is to say that it is hard. If you are not savvy with these things, and have no patience, then you will be frustrated. But, TBH, I don't know how the interface could be any easier given how complex of a job you are asking these devices to do.
    - It would be a nice touch to have a colour screen, but not necessary.
    - You won't be able to use voice commands & searches for things like with Xfinity or Apple TV, but the Logitech remotes (and probably every one else) don't support that either.
    - I am not certain, and I am not sure if it makes a difference, but I "think" the hub connects directly to your phone for setup, and not through WiFi (and then to your phone), which I wonder if that might be a problem under some circumstances that I can't predict right now.
    - It would be nice to support Apple HomeKit.
    - No customizable wallpaper for the LCD screen, but this isn't really necessary.
