Don't know if I'm missing something, or if I'm just overthinking -- went on to Amazon to check out the prices of the SofaBaton X2 -- I saw multiple variants of the X2 SofaBatons (sold by Sofabaton through Amazon) -- all for the same price of $359.99

Here's where the wierd part begins...

Sponsored result 1 - X2 w/ charging dock and hub - $359.99
- https://www.amazon.com/SofaBaton-X2-Touchscreen-Activities-Compatible/dp/B0FT3D1K32
Sponsored result 2 - X2 w/ hub and R1 IR extender - $359.99 (when you click and read the description, it's actually a bundle of the X2 ($316.10) and the R1 ($43.89)

Sponsored result 3 - X2 w/ hub - $359.99
- https://www.amazon.com/SofaBaton-X2-Touchscreen-Activities-Compatible/dp/B0FYPR3KLW

I noticed that even though some of them don't mention the dock, all of the pictures of the X2 show a dock, and there don't appear any standalone charging docks for the X2 for sale.

Is the one that's a bundle a potentially older model/revision of the X2... or something else I'm missing?

[EDITED TO ADD LINKS]

Wondering whether I should consider the SofaBaton as a replacement for my dying Harmony Elite, or if there are other options I should think about when the Harmony inevitably dies. I've been unable to find a listing/database of devices supported by the SofaBaton -- at least with the Harmony, I can go into the Logitech app on my phone and pretend to add a new device to try and find it.

I currently use the remote for simple activities like "watch cable, " and "play Xbox" in addition to controlling the volume, changing the cable channels, etc. There are currently no home automation devices in the apartment - but I wouldn't necessarily rule any out in the future.

I have a Samsung S95H TV with a matching Samsung soundbar (connected via eARC). My devices (cable, Xbox, PS5, Switch) are connected to a single HDMI port on the TV via an HDMI switcher. My current cable box will be replaced in the near future by the provider, "upgrading" us to an IPTV-based solution using the SEI eSTREAM PYXIS 4K box (unsure if the remote that comes with it is IR or Bluetooth).

Thanks in advance!

Difference between Sofabaton X2s for sale on Amazon?

Sofabaton or something else?
