Review: Decent once set up - Update: Ignore everything below. They fixed all the issues and the remote is flawless now! I appreciate them listening to my issues and actually fixing them. Their support team is incredible! Old Review, not applicable anymore: The app is an absolute disaster to use on Android. I had to restart my phone at least 5 times due to the app not loading correctly. Setting up activities takes a lot of patience and manual changes to get things to work. Remote won't directly change inputs on my Yamaha due to the remote not having that. My Harmony that my dog chewed up knew the receiver could quickly switch by directly changing. Remote doesn't know how to tell when my Samsung TV is completely on. Luckily, I don't change the input very often at all. Volume doesn't continually go up/down when held. I complained a lot there, but after I got it up and running it is pretty solid minus the flaws mentioned. It is a huge upgrade from having to use multiple remotes or my phone since my dog thought the Harmony remote would be a good chew toy. I definitely prefer the Harmony, but see the potential of this company giving us a solution well into the future. Review: Octopus of problems. If it's not one thing, it's seven others. DO NOT BUY. - I rarely write reviews, but this device is so bad, I feel compelled to warn others. Don't only read my review, though, check out similar comments, as well as the X1's low 3.5 star rating. Hopefully, you've filtered only to find 4+ stars here at desertcart. Lucky you will then neither have to read my lengthy review nor suffer through the experience that is Sofabaton. First, there are basically no instructions. That's fine, I'm into this type of thing, good with computers, I'll figure it out. Like other half baked junk these days, the app is only on the phone. I'd prefer it on the computer for a setup tool like this, but maybe others like tiny screens and limited options. My biggest complaint is that the commands don't work consistently with my preamp. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. My preamp works fine with the factory remote, the Harmony 890 blaster, and my nVidia shield remote. No problems, basically 100% of the time. But the X1 fails frequently (let's say it's a 30% failure rate on volume up/down -- totally unacceptable). I've spent hours and hours trying to figure this out to no avail. I even removed IR LEDs from a working Harmony blaster and installed them in the X1 to see if they were just using cheap parts. Yes, I have taken an extreme effort. You can guess at their codes in the database, you can learn from the original remote, you can add "repeats", etc. Doesn't make any difference. Note: all the options they give you are not described -- what are "repeats" exactly? What difference codes are you selecting when you go through the list? They just ask if it worked. They are totally guessing. Almost as annoying as it being unable to consistently control my devices is this: When you create an "Activity" and you assign commands to the soft menus on the screen, you cannot reorder them once they are in place. You can also not delete them. You have to delete the entire activity and start over. So, if you had a whole system set up and you bought a new TV, you could not simply change the TV model and reassign buttons -- you'd have to start all over. This makes no sense, of course. I and others have repeatedly asked for them to fix this, and they say they will review the request. Um, this would be one of the first things I would do if this were my project (from the start, not after probably hundreds of customer requests). The database of IR codes is a total disaster. Some commands are missing, some are oddly named, and some do the wrong thing. I suppose you could consider this some type of challenge -- like a Sudoku or a crossword -- to keep your mind active, but I just find it a pain in the backside. Between the oddball codes and the inability to reorganize the menus once they are in place, I was discouraged from creating an elaborate setup in the soft menus. If you do attempt to work with this device, I suggest setting up the *absolute* minimum until you're sure it'll work for you. If you try to set it up as you really want, you'll be met with frustration. Sometimes the hub and/or the handset will drop the connection. I don't know exactly which connection is lost, but power cycling it will fix it. Let's just say that this isn't particularly popular with my wife and kids. I'm sure there are more negative points, but I can't remember them all! Check out the negative reviews from others to get a feel. And check out the "community" section at the Sofabaton X1 website. You can see the endless complaints, along with Sofabaton's responses, which are usually a regurgitation of some type of "sorry for the inconvenience" nonsense. The external hardware and the packaging are impressive, though I have read complaints of early failures on some of the buttons. However, the app, the firmware, the electronics and the IR databases are what I would expect of a year-long graduate level four-person group project. Very, very impressive for a handful of kids that have no real work experience. But it's not ready for primetime and I'd say it would take another year or more of development with a team of real engineers for it to be at the point that it's for sale at desertcart for $189. Please, give yourself an early birthday present this year and DO NOT PURCHASE this piece of junk!

I would rate the Harmony as a 3.5. It was functional when it worked, but it was glitchy and I had to reset the hub every couple of weeks. If this happened when I was gone, my wife would be ticked off. I first looked at the U2 but quickly decided that I still needed a hub with IR extenders to effectively operate my equipment in semi-enclosed cabinets. Also, I needed BT for the Apple TV. I was aware of the previous mediocre reviews for the X1, but hoped that the newest version had worked out many of the early kinks out. If it did not work, it would be quickly returned. Positives: Activity button functions allow quick control of multiple devices. Backlighting is a big improvement over Harmony. Macros (once set up) allow easy changing among favorite channels with function wheel. Comprehensive along device database Negatives: Physical layout of buttons at lower half of remote makes it difficult to change channels or volume. App based interface needs to be re-worked to mirror Harmony's ease. Remote is slippery as hell. I had to order a silicone case. Current Unknowns: Long term stability of the Hub. To start, the setup was nowhere near as clear and easy as the Harmony Hub. In fact, if you do not have experience setting up old-school universal remotes, you are going to have an uphill battle. Unlike the Harmony which used an interactive questioning approach to determine how the remote needed to be coded, the X1 questions on issues such as power commands and source switching are less than clear. Plus, the total lack of in-box instructions is abysmal. To be fair, I did not look at the online tutorial video as I knew enough about creating macros for advanced functions to muddle through. The app for the setup process was pretty straight forward but could have better development for less experienced users. There is no way my less tech oriented friends and family members would get much of functional capabilities programed into this without professional help. At one point, I had a glitch in the startup where I think I confused the hub by pressing too many buttons too fast. I thought it was frozen, but one of the IR extenders simply moved and did not send the signal properly. My fault. I could not get the hub to respond and had to contact customer service for instructions on how to reset it. Once I did this, and reconnected to my wifi, everything worked perfectly. Customer service was easy to work with by chat during normal business hours. I have set up three activities: Watch Cable TV, Watch Apple TV and Stream Music. The online database had each of my four components, including my Anthem MRX720, AVR which never made it onto Harmony's database. However, the database lacked commands for the AVR's Zone 2 power and input. Hopefully an update??? For Watch TV, I was able to program (as macros) click through menu items for about 10 of our favorite tv channels. This is important because the lack of physical number buttons makes it difficult to switch across a wide range channels without multiple key presses through a channel guide. I was also able to assign macros to each of the right two colored buttons at the bottom of the remote to toggle between my tv inputs (HDMI 1 & 3 as well as between my two AVR inputs. I did this just in case a switch command at startup fails to register and one device gets stuck on the wrong input. This was a frequent occurrence with the Harmony. However, after I finally figured out the correct input switching protocol for each device (the LG OLED tv was the most complex), I have not had one instance of incomplete input settings on startup even with dozens of test commands. Very happy about this!!! My Watch Apple TV function was much easier once I figured out the start up power settings for this. I can either leave the Apple TV powered on or have it turn off when not in use. I am still testing the power off function to see if it is stable long term. If not, I will go back to the always on option. The Music function was very simple as I usually just stream Spotify or Pandora from my iPad to my Anthem AVR. With a few more clicks, I can play through Apple tv as well. Overall, I would give this product 4.5 stars if I could. I must say that the overall day to day functional use surpasses that of the Harmony by quite a bit. However, it gets dinged one star for the underwhelming setup functions. If the hub turns out to be more stable than the Harmony Hub, it will be a winner. ## Frequently Bought Together - SofaBaton X1 Universal Remote Control with Hub, All in one Remote with Smart APP Setting, One-Touch Activities,Control 60+ Devices, Compatible Alexa & Google Assistant for Voice Control - SofaBaton X1S Universal Remote Control,Universal TV Remote with Hub, Smart All-in-One Remote Customize Macro, One-Touch Activities, Compatible with 60 Bluetooth/WiFi/IR Devices --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/438774653-sofabaton-x1-universal-remote-control-with-hub-all-in-one](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/438774653-sofabaton-x1-universal-remote-control-with-hub-all-in-one) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
