The shape of the Harmony One remote has been ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand. By helping position your hand in just the right spot on the remote, the distinctly shaped grips give you easy access to key buttons.


Rechargeable Lithiumion Battery with Sleek Recharging Stand
The Harmony One remote is rechargeable, so you won’t need to worry about buying new batteries. The battery indicator lets you know when the remote battery is low, so when it needs recharging, just put the remote into its cradle.

Logitech Harmony One Universal Remote with Color Touch Screen Comments:



4.0 out of 5 stars A slick rechargeable touchscreen remote from Logitech,
January 26, 2008 Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What’s this?) Length:: 4:27 Mins

A video review of the Logitech Harmony One, focusing on a few fun features like the motion sensor, rechargeability (with included docking station), and ability to replace 5 of our other remotes, including the specialized Tivo remote. Easy to program and easy to use touch screen makes this a very cool remote control.



5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Remote: Simple to Program, Even Easier to Use!,
February 3, 2008 This review is from: Logitech Harmony One Universal Remote with Color Touch Screen (Electronics)
4.0 out of 5 stars Logitech’s Best Harmony Yet…But Could Still Be Better,
February 1, 2008 This review is from: Logitech Harmony One Universal Remote with Color Touch Screen (Electronics) The introduction of the new Logitech Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote has really raised some eyebrows and produced a lot of chatter in the electronics gadget market. Once you see this remote and try it for yourself you will understand what all the buzz is about!

The Harmony line of universal remotes has become the most popular among average consumer grade remotes here in the U.S. Although not cheap, the Logitech Harmony series offers great functionality, easy computerbased programmability, and stylish looks at a somewhat affordable price. I already owned two other Harmony remotes, including the Logitech Harmony 550 Universal Remote and the Logitech Harmony 880 Advanced Universal Remote Control, before deciding to buy the new Harmony One. The 880 model has proven to be a wonderful but somewhat frustrating remote to own. It has very small buttons, a smallish color LCD display, and I had problems with the charging feature working properly when sitting the remote in its charging cradle. The Harmony one improves on all of these aspects. This new remote has much larger buttons, which have unique shapes that make it easy to determine function of most buttons by feel (so you don’t have to look at them before pressing). The LCD screen is bigger, brighter, and has a much higher resolution; not to mention the fact that it is a touch screen. The newly designed charging cradle is formed precisely to hold the new Harmony One snug, so it cannot wobble and lose connection with the charging contacts. The Harmony One is a slight bit larger than the Harmony 880 and 890 series remotes, but feels more balanced in the hand; likely due to the remote’s wonderful contoured body. Setting up the new Harmony One could not be much easier, using the same USB interface and Harmony Remote software that all of the other Harmony remotes utilize. If you already have a previous Harmony remote, you can copy over all of the activities and devices onto the new Harmony One. However, doing this will cause you to lose any custom button settings. As could be expected, the Harmony One also has an IR learning capability, so you can teach it IR commands from other device remotes that you have.

Although some of the features of this new model are not unique from other Harmony models, here are a few of the perks you get with the newly designed Harmony One:

Beautiful 2.2″ LCD Touch Screen Display (220 by 176 pixels)
40 Essential Backlit Function Buttons, With Unique Shapes That Make Them Easy To Identify By Touch
USB Interface Allows Easy Setup via Computer With Included Harmony Remote Software
Harmony Remote Software Currently Includes Database Of More Than 5,000 Manufacturers and 175,000 Devices.
Activities Can Be Programmed For One Touch Control Of Your Entire Home Entertainment and/or Home Automation System (i.e., Watch DVD, Listen to CD, etc.)
Up To 15 Devices Can Be Programmed, Meaning You Can Essentially Replace 15 Remotes With The Harmony One
Logos Can Be Added For Favorite Channels Or Device Functions (although setting this up can be rather tedious!)
Rechargeable Litium Ion Battery Powers Remote For Several Days Between Charges
Up To 8 Photos Can Be Uploaded For Slideshow On LCD Display (resolution and file size limitations apply!)
Ergonomic Body Fits Well In Hand And Feels Light And Well Balanced
Included Charging Cradle Holds Remote Snug And Keeps Remote Charged And Ready For Use
IR Learning Feature Allows Custom Teaching Of Specialized Device Remote Commands
BuiltIn Motion Sensor Automatically Tuns On Backlighting When Remote Is Picked Up Or Tilted

With the good you always have to expect some bad, and the Harmony One does indeed have a few flaws that nick my overall score of this otherwise awesome device:

Glossy Surface Of Remote Promotes Ugly Finger Print Smudges And Accentuates The Appearance Of Dust Particles
Only 3 Activities Are Displayed On LCD At One Time (you can flip pages to display other activities in sets of 3)
No RF or Bluetooth (IR only!)
No WiFi for Remote Setup (must be plugged directly into PC via included USB cable)
Photos and Custom Button Icons Can Be Painful To Setup and Configure
Remote Wobbles A Bit When Sitting On Hard Surface (counter top, night stand, etc.)
Cannot Customize Order Of Device List
No Tactile Response/Feedback for Touchscreen Buttons

Overall I am extremely pleased with my new Logitech Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote. It is definately a step up from my Harmony 880 model. However, with a $250.00 price tag this may not be a practical choice for everyone. Many of the cheaper Logitech Harmony universal remotes offer most of the same capabilities; just not with all of the bells, whistles and hightech style as you get with the Harmony One. I definately wish Logitech had designed this remote with a matte finish, rather than the finger print attracting gloss finish. I also wish they included the ability to customize the order in which it displays the device list. I have 15 devices programmed into my Harmony One, and I find myself flipping through page after page in order to find the device I want (since the LCD only displays 3 per page). These design oversights, and those listed in my cons list above, as well as the hefty price tag prevent me from giving this wonderful remote a 5star rating. Still, the Harmony One is one of the best, affordable, fullfeatured universal remote controls you will find on the market today (IMO). Since this remote has firmware that can be upgraded via the Harmony Remote Software, I am hoping that Logitech tweaks this device a little over the coming months. Still, there is no way for them to add features like RF, Bluetooth or WiFi without introducing an upgraded model in the future. This means that buying the Harmony One today may leave you wanting a newer (improved) model, which is sure to be released by Logitech in the near future (as they did when they introduced the Harmony 890 after many of us had already purchased the Harmony 880!). If you are looking for a sleek, one remote solution for your home entertainment and/or home automation needs, and you can live without RF and Bluetooth for the foreseeable future, then I highly recommend the Logitech Harmony One. It really is one amazing remote control device!
