BroadLink Smart Home Hub-WiFi Remote Control IR Blaster for Smart Life Home Automation, TV Remote, Compatible with Alexa, Google Home, IFTTT (RM4 Mini),black

The quality the built everything is cool. Looks amazing. But a very powerful internet connection of 2.4GHz is needed. It will not work on Phone’s Hotspot. If one is planning to do so, please do not buy this product.

Works with my Epson Projector

Works as advertised. Bought this one after reviews of other half priced items not working reliably. So far, it has been reliable enough on a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Using it with a Daikin A/C, where I had to copy remote commands into the device. It does need a reliable power connection (USB-A), and don’t worry reliably off a power bank.

Its been 15 days now and still havent received my refund for this product which was not even connecting to any mobile phones This was the first time worst experience faced in my life in e commerce ordering Amazon should look into it

Only 8 meter radius not good

Really versatile controller. Using the learning feature, I’m able to control a custom remote controller that I purchased for my regular fan. My AC has become a smart AC too. So I managed to set an all night schedule wherein my AC and fan switch on and off alternatively all night automatically! That too with fan speed control. Really cool. This is must have for any tech enthusiast and for those who like smart controls and automation. I just bought it a couple of days ago. Hope it lasts for a long time. By the way initially it took sometime to figure out how to configure it. But once I got the hang of it, it’s really amazing. Lastly, the build quality is really good.

Now I am operating my AC using this universal remote. We can program the sleep time i.e. 10 to 5. AC will switch on automatically and we set temperature, modes and fan speed for everyhour. Once configured, it will take care of everything.

It just integrated seamlessly with my HA Setup and I can easily control my AC from Google Home and Home Assistant installation.

ممتاز

producto hecho con muy malos materiales que se rompen en apenas unos meses y peor asistencia tecnica, no responden a los mails ni dan señales de vida

I use this with Home Assistant and did not touch the Broadlink app at all, so this review is only about the device itself. TL;DR: Compact device with excellent performance that is perfect for integrating my "dumb" Hi-Fi and TV equipment into Home Assistant Pros: - Small and easy to place - Good performance. Immediately sends commands when instructed and can send lots of commands quickly and reliably - It's IR so needs line of sight but has excellent emitters and aiming isn't really a consideration (at least not for my setup) - Holds the WiFi connection reliably and is stable Cons: - The power cord is micro-USB. I am sure it is an old design, but everything else I own is USB-C now, and these are an unfortunate throwback - 2.4 GHz only. I suspect that, like its power connector, this is indicative an old design. It works and works well, but if you don't have 2.4 GHz networking, it's a non-starter - It's so lightweight that it's easy to tip over or for the weight of the power cord to pull it down. You may want to mount it rather than using it on a tabletop.

ホームアシスタントで使ってます。ローカルで成立するのが素晴らしい。最初だけ登録でオンラインつなぎましたが。

07Mar2026 First, I want to say that I see some negative reviews that all seem to be from 1-5 years ago. I read through them, after I bought this amazing little device (RM4 Mini) and not one of those things seem to be problematic right now. I'm setting up a Home Assistant (HAOS) "bare metal" (which means, I've installed HAOS on a 3-year old Dell laptop that I have. It has 16GB RAM, an i5-1335U. The very first thing RM4-Mini does upon setup is to update it's firmware. WiFi connection is solid. Not once has it disconnected. Sure, the only downside with this hardware (which is older, yes) is that it doesn't have the ability to connect to 5GHz. Only 2.4GHz. But zero disconnects. As an engineer, I originally wanted something to use as a Universal Remote to replace out old, non-working Logitech Harmony remotes. As I didn't have any information on how to set these up, I engaged Google's Gemini Pro and ChatGPT 5.2 to help me set it up. One thing of note to anyone who wants to use AI to help, I highly recommend to "VERSION LOCK - FAIL CLOSED", listing the current versions of whatever you are using, i.e. HAOS OS: 17.1, Core: 2026.2.3, etc. The reason is, because if you do not version lock the AIs, they will refer to their trained data, which is from 2025 or 2024 and this will NOT work as things change too much. I have found this RM4-Mini to be so much better than I had anticipated. When Scanning the environment, it found all of our TP-Link power outlets (directly, not through the cloud, which is incredible!). It found our Onkyo receiver and made available functions that I didn't even know existed. It found all of our Google Home Assistant displays and even, when permitted, hardware details from our smart phones (let's me see the battery condition). As for some saying that many devices, when operated via the Android app, that may be true, at least at that time, but Broadlink does update their device discovery database. And here's the thing. if you do have a device that is just not listed, you have other options. For one, you can test other devices from that brand and sometimes, even a generic brand might work. But if not, this RM4-Mini has a "Learn" function, which I've had to use in HAOS, since when used within the server, it does not have the ability to gather, automatically, the devices from the web. So you can easily "learn" each button from whatever remote you have. I do recommend this device, but for those who are not afraid to research documentation (or ask the AIs what to do, after locked into the versions of whatever you use). Also, I noticed in the description that it says this uses 2xAAA batteries. That is not true at all. It plugs into a USB cable, which can be from a wall wart. Very easy. Hope this helps.
