Some time back our family purchased a smart TV for our home. We really love the TV, but one complaint that we have is when we go to search for a program on our Netflix or Hulu Plus accounts, it is very time consuming and annoying to have to scroll through each letter and click “OK” on each one to type in the name of what we are searching for in the search menu. Logitech had the solution for us with the Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard.
Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard Available Exclusively At Best Buy
The Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard looks just like a regular wireless keyboard for your computer, but it can be used like a TV remote with some simple set up procedures. We no longer need the remote that came with our smart TV to search for programming. We can now type it in using the Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard, and it has drastically reduced the amount of time it takes to search for a program on our smart TV! I’m talking from between 45 seconds to a minute to enter a name to less than 10 seconds, it is that much difference.
A very cool thing about this smart keyboard is that it has a “Movie” Activity button which will change your devices to the right settings with just a touch. The Logitech Harmoney Smart Keyboard also has integrated DVR and set-top box controls, playback and volume buttons, and a touch pad for cursor control on a PC or Mac. It really has everything that you need to enhance your media experience.
I never thought that I would even consider such an item for our smart TV, but it has become a real time saver at our home. With just a few minutes of familiarizing myself with the keys on the keyboard and what they control, I was up and running, and I use the Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard more than I do the regular TV remote now.
What About Compatibility And Setup?
The Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard is part of a list of several devices offered in Logitech’s Harmony line that can help make controlling the media devices in your home much easier. The Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard in particular is compatible with over 225,000 devices, including smart TVs, Apple TVs, XBox 360, PS3, Hulu, Netflix and Roku just to name a few. Setup requires a smart phone with Bluetooth capability, and the Harmony App, which can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or App Store. The Logitech Harmony Smart Keyboard is available now, exclusively at Best Buy.
This sounds great. We recently got into using our tv for Internet and it is a long often annoying process. This would be a big help. Added plus to me is, it being Logitech. I like their products.
very cool! I wish apple would make something like this for the apple tv!
That’s pretty cool. I think I would use it with my iPhone, but that’s probably all I would use it for. It’s a neat product.
This sounds really great but I don’t have a Smart TV. I only have a TV with a DVR connected to it. I know I’m way behind times!
What an AWSESOME keyboard and mouse combo!! And to be able to use with my smart tv.. Mind Blown! I need this!
This sounds like an interesting keyboard! Very cool! I will have to tell my hubby about this one!
That is such a cool keyboard. I would love to have one to hook up to my iPhone to.
This would be so helpful with our tv. It’s such a pain to select letters with the remote.
This is a great keyboard to invest in. I just might be getting one
We have one at our house and we just love it. It works great with our smart t.v.
What a great product! We dropped cable several months ago and rely on Hulu and Netflix now. I HATE having to search for tv shows or movie titles by using my tv remote.
This is so cool! I love that we will be able to use it with our TV and PS4!
I hate typing things out with a regular remote, it’s such a pain in the butt!
I’d love to have this! I have other Logitech products, this would replace several remotes nicely.
i HATE HATE HATE searching on the tv!! makes me crazy. we need this keyboard!
This keyboard looks amazing. My husband nor I are very techy, but I have to admit that it would be cool to control everything from a central location.
The rest of my family is way more techy than I am so I’m sure they would really love this!
That is a SHARP keyboard. I love the touch pad! That is so handy.
This keyboard looks awesome!! I’m a fan of Logitech products. I have one of their small wireless tablet keyboard folios and I LOVE it.
I think it would be a great time saver too, like you said. I think it’s really cool!
We love ours too! This has simplified our living room!
I need one of these for my iPad. I’m going to go to Best Buy and test them out!
I wanted one of these so bad, I think I’d get so much use of out it
I keep hearing great things about this keyboard. I’ve been resisting because I’ve had my keyboard for so long…but I feel my will bending.
I’m loving this harmony smart keyboard. I’m going to need to look into getting one.
ok, I’m seriously in love with that!! I might have to get one!
Wow- that’s wicked cool! I need something like this since we use Netflix and Hulu and some other apps a lot! Plus I like the latest gadgets and this looks like one I need to have.
I really like Logitech products. We own a wireless keyboard and mouse and they have been great.
This keyboard is absolutely amazing. I love being able to turn things on with the touch of a button.
I need this for my teenager! He would really enjoy this and think I was a cool mom for getting this for him
This would be awesome to own! I hate that it takes me forever to type something in when I don’t have a keyboard!
That looks super cool! I’ve navigated our TV with our smartphones before, but it’s not very easy, usually.
This keyboard is so awesome. I really want to give it a try 🙂
This looks like a great keyboard. I’m looking for a new one since the letters are off of mine and no one else can seem to use it.
I have such a hard time finding great gift for Father’s Day or Birthday and Christmas for the Mr. and this would make a great gift for him. He loves his Netflix and he searches all the time while complaining on how slow it is. I just had to pin this one for later reference. This is why I like blogging so much. You keep me informed of all the great new products. Thanks for sharing it.
I would love to have this keyboard. I am going to have ti do a little research on it and see if it would work with our xbox since we run Netflix and Amazon through that.
