Universal Remote's Complete Control MX-450 gets reviewed


Remember those days of programming your "universal" remote to control five or six components right on the dimly-lit, likely monochrome display? For better or worse, Universal Remote is taking you back to a familiar time with its Complete Control MX-450, which absolutely doesn't allow PC programming whatsoever. Thankfully, the included display was found to be plenty big for even the amateur AV enthusiast to handle, and the built-in UI / MacroEdit features were sensibly laid out and very user-friendly. Surprisingly, reviewers found the on-remote setup process not only adequate, but actually enjoyable to use. Overall, critics didn't have too much to gripe about (aside from the steep price for an entry-level device), but we'd still recommend hitting the read link and thinking this one over before biting off more than you can chew.
