I think for most of us who invested in Harmony prior to their announcement of ceasing manufacturing, the Harmony Elite is still the standard and flagship for a universal remote. That being said, so far the X1 is the next best thing if you’re looking to start from scratch. Its still doesnt meet the standards of the Elite, YET…..But its gonna get there eventually I believe.

I was a Kickstarter buy-in and have had this sitting aside cause of all the negative early reviews (Youthman etc) I figured software updates were coming, so after seeing your more positive review I figured I would give it a try. I have a logitech Elite, but I refer the Companion remote cause it has hard number keys and that is a big benefit when working the set-top cable box. I have two hubs set up, the primary one also interfaces with Alexa. The bedroom set up is a TV, Set top box and Firestick and I was using an older Harmony One, but w/o any Firestick activity (no bluetooth). Figured the X1 (if it worked decently) would be idea for this. Set up was a bear compared to Harmony. As it is now, the phone app gets disconnected from the hub whenever I leave the room and wants to do a new ADD Hub/Bluetooth connect. I found shutting and restarting the app solves that. I feel the device is clunky. Getting the device menu to respond is an adventure (could be me, I don't read directions much). I did set up activities and reprogrammed some keys, so I'll give it a try and see how it does over the next few weeks. The worst part looks like using the cablebox numbers to flip TV stations. I'm concerned about getting 3 digits entered before the set-top tries responding with the first two... time will tell. For cord cutters, without the need to enter digits, this may be a non-issue. And the BACK button is HORRIBLY misplaced (upper right), while the RETURN button icon visually conveys BACK. More to come I'm sure.

Unfortunately I wasnt part of the kickstarter or beta testers so I dont know how bad the remote was at its inception, I have seen all the reviews though. But I know SofaBaton has released a lot of updates by the time I got one, and its def not perfect but it def has potential, they just need any and all feedback and they are willing to listen to customers and make improvements so I think because of that it’s only going to get better. The app does disconnect but in all fairness the logitech did the same when I had the remote as a beta tester and Logitech improved the speed at which it reconnects massively so I think that can also be improved with the SofaBaton. But functionality works really really well with the hub and ir blasters addition.
@StephenAtt797

@@hatoraidcowboy I thought I'd share my latest comments I've sent to Sofabaton: issue 1, after latest firmware upgrade - remote indicated "lost hub" not even sure what that means. What is the protocol between the hub and remote - Bluetooth? Wifi? Proprietary (over what technology)? Remote is always within 15 feet of hub. At 12:15 am this morning, when I got that message, just left remote next to hub and grabbed my Harmony One to change TV channels. Issue 2, now that I got the numbers to show up in the LED for my activities, more than 50% of the time when I hit a number, I get a double digit. I suspect it’s due to the scroll wheel moving under pressure when selecting. I tried it a bunch of times and am constantly seeing repeated numbers where 22 becomes 222. This will be a non-starter for me, cause in the setup I’m using the X1, 95% of the time I’m working the TV and cable set-top box. Using the up and down channel selectors isn’t valuable when there are 300+ channels in the portfolio. The scroll wheel and the poorly located BACK button are really downers in this design. Maybe an X2 will resolve this, but I’m hard-pressed to see where I’ll be able to use the X1 as a single controller. hard number buttons is the main reason I prefer using the Harmony Companion vs the Eilte (I have both, the Elite sit idle 100% of the time).

@@StephenAtt797 Here is the response from my contact @ SofaBaton. Hope this helps! 1. Lost hub is the remote control firmware upgrade or data synchronization when the speed is too slow, prompts after interruption, manually click the upper right corner to return. The hub and remote control are customized 2.4G, and the general control distance is 8-10 meters, but when upgrading or data updating, the longer distance will lead to slower transmission speed, and data loss or interruption may occur. It is recommended to place the remote control near the hub when upgrading. 2. If you frequently switch multi-digit channels, it is recommended to set the macro button to trigger with one click. 1). Create the device as an Activity. This Activity can be a single device or together with other devices 2). In Activity mode, edit the selected Activity item through Edit----Assign keys for X1-Remote or Keys favorites (one is assigned to the physical key, and the other is only displayed on the screen) 3). According to the prompt, choose to add Macro keys. If it is channel 1542, you can set a macro named 1542, including four commands 1, 5, 4, and 2.

@@hatoraidcowboy Thanks for relaying this... not sure if I grasp the details here ("macro button triggering"). Discovered last night that the up/down channel change arrows are actually moving the box 2 numbers at a time So from 151 to 149 and channel 150 can't be accessed. If that's a setting (like a mouse's wheel) I haven't found it yet. I'm trying to make this work, but seems like so many compromises. 3 devices/3 remotes may not be that bad. I hardly use the Firestick today and wonder if that will change even under perfect conditions. Chalk it up to "old guy stuck in his ways"! Mets/Astros World Series?

I see that your video is from 2022 and it’s right now, 2024 and I still don’t see any improvements, which is a shame because universal remote control that again manage activities is hard needed. Like I said, I have been trying to set it for one month using all kinds of combinations and all kinds of configurations and I still don’t get it to work. The language that they use is confusing. And like you mentioned there is no way that I could choose the input that the devices have to switch to The television. Truly disappointed, but yet I think I will still keep it in the hopes that they will improve they use in settings.

I didn’t have an extra Logi mini blaster, but I had lots of 3.5 mm blasters. So, I bought several different versions of 3.5 to 2.5 adapters and none of my blasters would work with any of the adapters. Is the Logi blaster somehow proprietary to the Logi hub? I also tried several different brands and styles of blasters, but no luck.

I'm guessing it doesn't have a mic on it which is a bummer as I use the voice commands all the time on both those remotes to search for movies and shows.

Why are there two different X-1’s and different descriptions on Amazons page, and also on SofaBaton’s store page???

I believe it should be the exact same remote, but different factory supplier. I havent checked the description, let me look.

I'm not going to buy this because it lacks the IR blaster. I think the company removed the IR blaster and added the hub to increase the overall cost. I don't like hubs. If they add the IR blaster, remove the hub and decrease the price I'll consider buying it. I just emailed the company telling them the same thing.

@@SRX2004 In a dedicated Home Theater setup most people have a rack or have their components in an enclosed space so kind of makes sense so you can just use the hub with mini infrared blasters. That’s just my guess though.
