The Verge covers pretty much all the details, including some burgeoning machine vision innovations to “smartify” the whole thing. And somewhat more optional voice control. And the total package runs significantly less than the Harmony Express. But Caavo, a recent entrant into this space, is tackling this problem in a somewhat different and perhaps more compelling manner.īeyond just wireless network hub functionality, the Caavo “control center” also has a television interface and acts as a 4K HDR HDMI switch – which has great practical value.

Not to mention my three year old would surely be flummoxed by what looks to be a conspicuously absent power button. Such as, I suspect, running one’s entire entertainment center.

Harmony Express diminutive proportions belie its expense, running a fairly lofty $250.

Just a few short years ago, Logitech attempted to jettison the entire Harmony product line.
