From Phillips Lights, Sonos Speakers and Nest Learning Thermostats (and much more), this remote is a one-stop-shop for all of your digital needs. Just think \u2013 one solution that controls everything in your house.<\/p>\n<h2>Yes, it can find itself<\/h2>\n<p>It isn\u2019t just smart either. It\u2019s rechargeable (with a mountable base) AND it features localization technology. Let\u2019s break that down \u2013 its 3 connected sockets allow the remote to locate itself within your home. Yes, Sevenhugs has answered your prayers individually. Stop spending hours hunting for what seems like thousands of different remotes associated with your TV, stereo, cable box or HD Player. Because it\u2019s rechargeable, you can also forget needing to replace batteries.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, this small gift from the gods operates lights, surround sound and thermostats, and well, that\u2019s really just the tip of the iceberg since it has an open SDK. Putting it plainly for those of you who don\u2019t speak tech, this remote has the potential to be compatible with virtually anything. Say hello to longer smart phone battery life (because you aren\u2019t trying to control everything in your house with it). Can I get an amen?<\/p>\n<h2>Control literally anything<\/h2>\n<p>If that wasn\u2019t enough to encourage you to scramble and get yours, you can also forget having to type, scroll for letters, pick from a list of options or go through a multi-step process. Simply point the Smart Remote at whatever device you\u2019d like to control and click. Yep, it is really that simple thanks to its adaptable touchscreen. In the quick, 2-minute video below, you\u2019ll even see the remote being pointed outside, then reflecting the weather updates.<\/p>\n<p>I have even more good news\u2026 you can get yours 50% off (for a limited time). Since the remote is currently in development, Sevenhugs is selling the first remotes for half the price. According to the Smart Remote\u2019s press release, the company will start shipping this September.
