3. The Harmony 880 Advanced Universal Remote
The Harmony 880 remote is designed for anyone who is tired of juggling a plethora of remote
controls in the living room, and for those who frustrated by universal remotes that require a
lengthy sequence of steps and buttons to launch any activity. It’s also designed so that people
can easily configure and update their remote without a technician to program it for them.
Because the activity-based buttons are easy for everyone to understand, not just for the master
of the entertainment center, the Harmony remote is simple to use for all family members – even
the babysitter.
