Logitech Harmony One Universal Remote Control Ultimate (Accessories)

Customer Review

I replace my Harmony 885 sought which gradually gives up the ghost after 7 loyal years.
The choice was the Ultimate One, because with her, unlike the touch switches on the lights on a motion sensor and carried feedback on commands triggered by vibration.
Now after two days of intensive configuring and using a first summary.
The Ultimate One makes a very noble and stylish impression, the keys act-quality, durable and have a crisp tactile feedback. As long as you use the lower key is the Ultimate One well in hand, the touch panel or the top button should be pressed so it is used to and suboptimal by the slim profile of the upper half. The touch panel is a nice gimmick and I want it, after a short familiarization phase, no longer do without. The "My Harmony" software is no longer so Wizzard based like the old remote software and configuring the remote control much simpler. Keys, commands, and delays can be changed directly via a menu
and no longer need to search through a cumbersome, sometimes difficult comprehensible question and answer game.
The migration of my 885 configuration for Ultimate One was easy to perform and succeed.
The keyboard layout has to be bolted to the course, one place or another there is not the same, but this can not be avoided. The synchronization of remote lags sometimes, the remote control I had to reset and install the "My Harmony" Software once again once already. The favorites I like very much, something I've always missed in the 885. The IR sensor has a wide angle of radiation that must be aligned FB not exactly on the device.

Conclusion:
The Ultimate One is a class FB and close to perfect.
It is significantly high and can slightly better than the 885 mE everything.
A few things could be better, however, is whining at a high level:
The handling is by the shape a bit strange, is also the FB therefore somewhat wobbly.
The software could be a little more stable, probably this is the case when the FB is now set up and no longer so much is changed. At the loading station, there is no LED indicating a grid connection and in the dark, the Ultimate One is hard to put into it. Here you could have shed light on the "bay" discreet and would both "problems" eliminated.
