5 Things to Consider When Buying a Logitech Harmony Advanced Remote
By Jason Scofield

Currently 4 models are available in the Logitech Harmony advanced remote series, viz.

• Logitech Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote
• Logitech Harmony 1000 Advanced Universal Remote
• Logitech Harmony 890 Advanced Universal Remote
• Logitech Harmony 880 Advanced Universal Remote

So, which one will suit you best? Should you buy the ONE, the 1000, 890 or 880?

To complicate matters even further, the 880, 890 and One look quite the same. In addition to this, if you go to Logitech’s webpage or any other webpage to help you decide, you’ll still struggle to determine where the differences lie. It’s not as straight-forward as you might think and chances are you’ll end up buying the wrong one.

In this article I will help you to make the right decision for your personal circumstances.

Quality-wise there’s no difference between the four models. However, there are some differences in features which may be important to you:

1. Touch-screen or not touch-screen. Only the 1000 and the ONE have touch-screen. If this is important to you, you have to consider one of these two. This does not mean that the 880 and 890 are inferior. By no means. As a matter of fact, I’ve read many reviews of people who actually prefer the traditional control buttons.

2. Radio frequency sensors: All models use infra-red sensors to control devices, but only the 890 and 1000 make use of radio frequency (RF) as well. This is a very important fact, since with RF you can control devices behind closed doors or even in another room. If this is important to you, you should consider either the 890 or the 1000. However, this comes at a price, as these two models are considerably more expensive than the other two.

3. RF and touch-screen: Only the 1000 have both RF and touch-screen. If both these features are important to you, you have to buy this one.

4. Design: The 880, 890 and the ONE have the familiar comfort-grip shape, whereas the 1000 has a rectangular shape. Apparently this shape has not been accepted that well, but for many it’s not a problem at all. In any case, if you want both RF and touch-screen, you have to buy the 1000 model, whether you like the rectangular design or not.

5. Finally, pricing: There’s a huge difference between the 880, going for $137.43 on the one hand, and the 1000 going for $312.80, on the other hand. The 890 goes for $277.10 and the ONE for $193.41. Everybody has to decide for himself whether the higher prices of the 890 and 1000 are justified in terms of his own budget or not.
