Finally a Smart Keyboard for Your Smart TV

How many remotes are currently setting on your coffee table or shoved into the cracks and crevices of your couch? It’s a bit ridiculous when I stop and think just how many remotes are in our home. The console remote, game controllers, cable remote, sound and amp remote, TV, Blu-Ray Player, Roku… the list is endless. We are constantly losing them! The act of digging through the couch cushions and sliding the sofa from it’s current position is a common occurrence in many household. I know we can’t be the only ones arguing over who had the remote last?

Wouldn’t it be great if we could ditch the remote all together? Many of us have tried universal remotes before and they haven’t worked because as it turns out, many of them aren’t all that universal – are they? But I think Logitech may have produced the first universal Keyboard. In addition to your TV, the Logitech Harmony Smart keyboard can also communicate with your laptop, cable, Netflix, Hulu, Xbox – and over 225,000 other devices!

The Harmony Smart Keyboard delivers the full Harmony control experience for TV-connected Internet and home entertainment devices. The specially designed keyboard allows text entry on internet-connected entertainment  devices. For instance, how many of you have a Smart TV remote that looks like this? While I love it’s simplistic, intuitive design, the one place it is really lacking is when I need to type something in. Whether it be a password or searching for something to watch, the slide/hover/click method is tedious, time consuming and annoying. This is where I love having the Harmony Smart Keyboard – it makes the perfect companion!

For example, press an Activity button on Smart Keyboard, like “Watch a Movie,” and all the right devices automatically switch to just the right settings. In addition to these buttons, it has integrated DVR and set-top box controls, playback and volume buttons, and a touchpad  for cursor control on a PC or Mac.

You can even turn your iOS & Android smartphones into personal universal remotes with the Harmony App.  Because honestly, while I may not know where the remote is – I always know where my phone is.

You can pick up the Logitech Harmony Smart keyboard now at Best Buy. This would make a great Father’s Day gift for the man in your life that already “has everything”.

  1. I need this! We have a google TV but our keyboard that came with it quit working so we’ve been using an app on our phone but it doesn’t always respond to touch very well.

  2. Love this! Hubs has a whole entertainment system hooked up in our basement that also connects to his computer. We have a wireless keyboard to use with it, but it is not very good or reliable which just leads to frustration for all of us. I will have to show this to him.
