Neither fish nor fowl

I already own a Harmony 895 and as this already has some age suffering (some keys no longer go, bloated Battery) I wanted to look for a replacement. Of the features ago the Ultimate sounded very much speaking.

However, I do not as I unpacked it and configures the very unfortunate new key assignment had equal noticed disturbing. Especially as the control buttons for video can now be found at the top of the FB, one-handed operation is hardly possible.
The fact that the number keys are accessible only via the touchscreen liese still get over, but however also compared with 2-year-old mobile phones touchscreen responds the very sluggish. This is no longer appropriate especially at the price. Zuguter last then read my Teufel Concept S Magnumg no longer operates properly with the FB, which still had no problem with the previous model 895. The setting for the fine tuning of the infrared signals was circumcised at the otherwise fairly good my.harmony software as opposed to the old incomprehensibly, so I could bring about not a good setting for the devil speaker system. Also in general I noticed that the FB is very dependent on the angle, the old 895 has allowed from impossible positions to control the devices, again a minus point.

Zuguter last also the WAF (Women's Acceptance Factor) fell out badly, my wife was annoyed by the arrangement of the video control buttons on the touch screen. Thus, the FB went back to Amazon and I have reactivated my 895 with a little skill and craft a replica battery. It's a shame because the particular feel of the FB is very valuable. The FB is otherwise well in hand, the keys have a good pressure point, the software of the operation here in order. But when the price has just fit everything, I was not convinced of the FB.
