Logitech Harmony Elite Universal Remote with Alexa and Google Home Compatibility! @BestBuy

When I was younger I’ve always been fascinated with gadgets. Whenever our telephone would break down I was the one who would fix it. There’s something about electronics and technology that highlights my day! Even now with all these new smart home tech devices, I love seeing what each one can do.

With the use of Alexa in my home I seem to rely on her a lot to control certain devices in my home, I’ve even have her play my favorite tunes and tell me what the weather will be like for that day.

So, when I saw the chance to check out the Logitech Harmony Elite Smart Remote from Best Buy I became so excited! That’s because this remote is compatible with more than 270,000 devices. Just about every device can be controlled by this remote from your TV, cable and gaming console, to your AV receiver and Roku® media player—all the way to your smart lights, locks, thermostats, even your Alexa—Harmony Elite works with just about any device!

The Harmony Elite + Amazon Alexa can control your entire home entertainment experience with just your voice, that’s what excites me the most! Plus, I like how comfortable it sits within my hand. It’s not like all my other bulky remotes. Now I can get rid of those bulky remotes and control everything from my Harmony Elite remote!

Remember, you can add any device and have full control of them all. Now there is a compatible Harmony app that will sync up with the remote. This control can even help set the tone for any occasion, let’s say you want a movie night with your love one, you can have this remote set the mood with your lights dimmed so you both can cuddle and enjoy that movie.

With the Harmony Elite Universal Remote, there’s nothing to it but to preset your scenes with just a push of a button. I love to relax and listen to jazz when working and everyone is sleeping, that will be the perfect time for me. I had a ball sharing these settings with the kids and it was an easy one, two , three app setting!

I just actually received a new lighting system that I will try out this weekend, I would love to set a nice, pleasant tone for a dinner party we are having soon. I wonder if the Harmony app will help me achieve that, heck I know it will!!

The setup is pretty easy , grab your remote and accessories and plugged in. Next, set up the software and remote just make sure your remote is in its charger to make sure it has the charge you need when in use.

The Harmony Elite and Alexa let you start your favorite activities no matter what they are. Start an Activity like “Sports Night” to turn on ESPN, dim the lights and even crank up the subwoofer to make it feel like you’re practically at the game. When it’s time to switch gears and turn on “Date Night”, just say the word. With the Harmony Elite sleekly designed and featured color touchscreen with motion-sensing backlit keys, and one-touch automation, Harmony Elite makes universal home control intuitively magical. Leave the chaos of multiple apps and remotes behind, and let peace reign supreme.

  • This would be a huge help to our home in many ways. For example, we have 3 remotes to just turn on our tv in our bedroom because of DVR and surround sound. With this remote, we could just use one remote to control everything. I would also love to control the lights and fans in our home with this remote.

  • We don’t have Alexa, but a universal remote that REALLY works would be great. Right now we have to use 3 remotes for Amazon, Netflix/TV and BlueRay.

  • We used to have an universal remote. It was a hassle st first because we didn’t have all the codes and had to contact the manufacturers for them. The Logitech Harmony Elite sounds the the king of remotes! It can control your entire home’s entertainment center with just your voice. It is also rechargeable & can be found at Best Buy – one of my favorite stores! Thank you for sharing!
