New Symfonisk remote incoming?

Ah, just found this, more buttons 👍

It’s shown on here under home electronics

Good spot, I have been anticipating the replacement. Must admit I do like the volume control on the current remote,

Yeah it’s good but not intuitive enough, eg the double/triple tap. This looks to have plenty of buttons so should be easier to use. The new hub is £55 though compared to £20/£25 for the old one. Hopefully it will work with Hubitat though to avoid needing a hub.

I’m currently using one of these for my Sonos control, connected to Hubitat which allows me to assign Sonos command to the buttons/dial. It works but the volume dial control isn’t smooth, you have to rotate it slowly in increments

Do you have a link to the IKEA page please as I cannot find the new remote.

It’s not out yet, that picture is on the UK site though https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/new/

 

And the name of the image confirms it

Excellent, thank you

Looks like the latest iOS update confirms the name of the new device.

Excellent, I was only looking at IKEA yesterday in hope…

I haven’t got much hope of it working perfectly with HE like it will with the ludicrously priced £80 IKEA hub. The 1st version never worked properly. Volume adjustment never seems to be do-able. Maybe ‘Matter’ will change that.

I never understand why Sonos cancelled their CR200 Controller 😭 With Android i’m sure they could do something far better at half the price that was.

The CR200 was nice but mine suffered from the screen becoming non responsive, the even older CR100 were painful to search with but were bulletproof for basic controls.
