Comment on Recommendations for a universal TV remote?
Humanius@lemmy.world 1 day ago Thanks. I’ve been looking to a proper remote to carry the torch of the Logitech Harmony. This seems like a great package

The sofabatons are imperfect, but they’re as close to harmony as you will get
I checked some reviews to see how they operate. It looks like the main difference is that the Sofabaton does not have “activities” where the remote keeps track of the state of a device. That is a bit of a shame, but other than that is seems like a pretty close match.

The U2, which is the one that is portable, I.e. no base station, doesn’t have activities, but you can fudge activity behaviour with macros. Its handy to just throw some codes onto it from the app and go.
The x1s and X do have activities but they are more expensive and need a base station.
I’d love it if they’d release a base station-less version with activity capability. I see no reason why that wouldn’t be possible (other than potentially cannibalising their own sales with a cheaper and similarly capable model)
