My trusty Harmony has just about given up, any suggestions for a good all in one controller for TV, Apple TV, amp and cable box please?

What Harmony model are you currently using?

If it's a hub-based model, I'm not sure there's anything else that's as good.

Maybe just get a used one from eBay.

Get another Harmony off Ebay.

I'm on my 3rd.

Sadly, no one else is in the market any more - at least no one who makes actual remotes, with buttons, and you don't have to pay £1000's.

Soundbars and lack of consumer "Give a fk" have killed remotes.

+3 on the Harmony.

My old Harmony packed up at the beginning of the year and so I got a Harmony Elite and hub off ebay for around £100. It controls everything and even links to Alexa, so I can't remember the last time I picked up the actual remote.

I still have a Harmony One. Stopped using it about 8 years back when I replaced my DVD player with a Blu Ray one and the new one on the list of options (and I was not going to manually program it in), TBH was still in use, but I rarely use my stereo and that was the only thing it was still used for. Have three batteries but none last long. Since then I have replaced my TV set and Blu Ray player.
Did Philips start updating the device list again? Started up the app the other day and got a message about 20 remotes were no longer supported, but the One was not listed.
