Smart IR Remote – Samsung/HTC Review
A few years ago I got sick of juggling all the remotes in my living room and purchased a Harmony Universal Remote. After extensive set up and tweaking of the configuration it was finally able to replace all my other remotes, and I’ve been using it exclusively ever since.
