Thought I would add a few comments about the remote itself.

The MX4000 feels good in the hands, there aren't any sharp edges and the sides where your hand rest are textured nicely and provide good grip. The volume and channel rocker on the remote could be a bit taller as I find myself having to hunt a bit to find them in the dark, but I am sure I will get used to it.

Battery life so far has been good. I use it mostly in the evenings, but I think I am going on 5+ days since it has been charged. The IR emitters are powerful, so you don't have to be careful about pointing it at specific components. The screen looks great and is responsive to touch actions, and moves to new screens are fast. One thing to note, the screen doesn't seem to support swiping, so you have to use the hard buttons to move between pages in a device unless you add an onscreen UI element to do that. Swipe would be nice to have if possible.

If you are used to programming in CCP, setting up the MX 4000 is very straight forward. The set of graphics and icons that come with CCP are nice and there are expansion packs available on the dealer portal. I am sure that someone who is experienced in Photoshop could come up with some really cool graphics for the MX4000 like we saw back in the MX3000 contests. I have not played with the mic functionality including Alexa yet but do plan to.
