Buy them now while they are still for sale. As they state that the platform, updates and support will continue. They will only end the sale of new devices.

I have 2 Ultimates, 1 Elite and 1 hub. Think i will try to score a 2nd Elite 2nd hand before the prices go sky high…

Same here. Bought an extra hub and Elite today. Purely as a backup since there’s no real alternative.

Does it have the same functionality? Is it ‘smart’ like Harmony so it knows what devices are on/off when switching between activities?

nope…  
The problem with the broadlink is that is only a hub, there is no remote.  
You have to control it by an app (or homey), for me the main thing is that i still have a decent actual remote control with REAL buttons for controlling my multimedia devices.

I don’t want to change channels using voice or my phone etc, i want to push a real button to zap around and control my volume…

The home automation should support my actions, not control it.  
So when i change my activity then it may react on it (dim lights when watching movie etc) but i am in control of the screen and sound using a real remote. (a touch screen does not work great on daily use of a tv)

Until my knowledge harmony is the only brand which actually do this…

Luckily i got 2 hubs and 2 remotes (elite and ultimate), so should the most important one fail (the one in the living room) i always can replace it with the one from my bedroom (which i hardly ever use).
