Upgrading from 525 to 600.. amount of devices

[adam81]

I currently have a 525 with buttons that are starting to fail, so it needs replacing really. At present I have 10 devices on it, the 525 I think can handle 15, but the new 600 controls only 5 and the 650 still only 6.

I read that if you upgrade from a previous remote the new one will be capable of handling the amount of devices you old one could. Can anyone confirm this?

Cheers
Adam

There have been reports of one or two more devices getting transferred but you can't rely on those and another 525 or a One would be much the better option anyway.

Why do you say another 525 would be a better option? Any of the older range would be better I guess? Just because of the number of devices. I'd have a one but can't justify the expense really.

There isn't that much of an older range, and the 525 was the best of them imho.
The newer models are less good again imho, which leaves only the One, which is dropping in price.
