The Logitech Harmony Elite universal remote control goes below €250 at Amazon, a drop of around 31% on the price usually seen. This is currently our best value for money.
Announced at IFA 2015, the Logitech Harmony Elite universal remote control is an evolution of the firm’s previous high-end model, the Harmony Ultimate. The concept is therefore the same, with a remote control equipped with a color touch screen and the presence of a small box that serves as a relay. However, the changes are not just cosmetic and several developments are quite fortunate.
Logitech Harmony Elite
Logitech continues to evolve its Harmony range in small steps. The fundamentals are still there and the defects of the previous model have almost all been erased. The result is a serious solution for controlling both audiovisual and home automation equipment with a truly wide product base. Everything is enhanced with high customization possibilities and an activity system that has been tried and tested many times over and is still just as practical.

With a more conventional appearance than the screen version, this universal remote control does not remain a serious and complete solution for controlling up to 8 devices, whether classic or home automation. The activities, so practical, are still there and still just as accomplished. A choice dish.
