ntlord Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I just meant from an effort perspective. It’s trivial for C4 to update those. It’s just a change of chips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntlord Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I assume that LOL is agreement with me. Because you can’t possibly be asserting that expanding the size of a flash chip and RAM is anything beyond trivial. But then again I actually have designed circuitry and hardware, so you know, I speak from actual experience. thegreatheed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyknight is incredibly helpful, but it does seem like he has always done everything 3 times more, 3 times harder, 3 times faster, etc... than everyone else. Maybe it's true...maybe it's not. But he is generally helpful and I appreciate him sharing knowledge. therockhr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But man he can be incredibly condescending sometimes.

Oh I haven't for sure, I don't claim to either. If anyone feels like it, I'm pretty sure I've made comments on anyone coming on a forum stating their 'special reason' to know anything better than anyone else on any matter. I can't be bothered to state it again, in no small part because it doesn't matter. It sure gave me a good laugh though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntlord Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 The next big question is what happens when you need to replace the battery? Neeo’s battery is not replaceable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Yeah, I'd be down to trade in my original Neeo lol. Would be nice if they would do some sort of trade in credit...

Neeo’s battery is not replaceable.Same as most smart phones on the market I suppose. Which also makes me think about how freaked out everyone was when smartphones started coming out without hard button keyboards... How's Blackberry doing these days?

ntlord Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Well maybe. If C4 were to start a trend. But do any other remotes have non-replaceable batteries? I actual don’t know the answer to that. I’m guessing not to many.And you can replace your battery in your iPhone for like $29 at the Apple store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Leeds UK Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 The best thing about this remote is we are now aware that we pay 100% more because it has Control4 on it - Neeo Remote £300 C4 Neeo Remote £500/£600 Thought C4 would have do a lot more with this remote Shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk This has been discussed many times. It is not the same thing. When you are using a smartphone you are looking at its screen. when you are using a TV remote you are looking at the TV, not the remote.
