The Harmony 670 is an updated version of one of the original Harmony remotes, the 659. Coming in at just under $150, it is easily in reach of even the most modest of home theater fans. Harmony didn't skimp on this remote, though it doesn't have some of the glitz of the higher-end models, such as the touch screen or color LCD display. The 670 has a smaller black and white LCD display that can have up to six additional functions on it, in addition to all the hard buttons the 670 sports. Four macro buttons sweep along the top.

Conclusion
While not as flashy as some of the new remotes in the Harmony stable, the 670 is a competent controller, and one easily capable of handling large, complicated systems. Sure, you'll need to replace the batteries from time to time, but the battery life is measured in months, so that really isn't a big deal. It lacks some of the coolness factor of its big brothers, but for the money, this is a great remote and one to seriously consider if cost is a limiting factor. It's cheaper, but still has all the power of its bigger siblings.
