I did like the simplicity of the USB stick over your standard Roku. After having it for some I did notice that the stick will get hot and that at times it would make Roku freeze. It's something as simple as disconnecting and reconnecting but it's a small hassle.

This is an upgrade to a Roku stick in our bedroom TV. We have three other Rokus. I got this one because it has the built-in audio jack, which is great for whan I want to watch TV while my wife reads or sleeps, and because it includes TV remote functions (power and volume) so I don't need a TV remote anymore. Performance is much better. Starting up, responsiveness, time to start playing - all feels very snappy and a big improvement over our previous Roku stick. It comes with everything you need including Duracell batteries for the remote, and headphones. Installation was a breeze, took 5 minutes including a super simple process to get it to control my Toshiba TV. This Roku feels solid, very well made. Other Rokus were good, this one feels heavier, made with better quality materials, For the first week of use we have had zero problems streaming HD content. It's a great buy, highly recommended.

Bought the Roku Ultra HD 4K HDR earlier, but needed another for my other smart tv. The Streaming Stick was the only one left on the shelf, yes only(1) so much for timing uh? Anyway I took it home and hooked it up without any hindrance and believe me it worked just as good as the Roku Ultra-perfect!

This gave my regular TV more streaming options than my smart TV,. Easy to use and I like the earbuds jack built into the remote. The design of the remote makes it easy to use without looking. I love it! https://youtu.be/gyqzQn9OrLs

These things work great! Had a couple of 43" HD TVs that were not smart tv's but the kids wanted Roku TVs, well I can tell you right now these were the perfect solution! They connect well to the wifi, even from the back bedrooms, the setup on them is probably one of the easiest electronic setups I have ever done (including programming the remote). The only thing that could possible even be improved on is that on one of the tvs there is BARELY enough clearance to fit it into the port so possible an adapter or extension like the one included for the power supply only to connect the device to the tv may be useful (there is a recessed portion on the back of one of the TV's where the ports are located and they face downwards and the stick is touching the angled portion of the plastic but it did connect and works fine so Im going to leave good enough alone). 10/10 highly recommend. **not a paid for add or free thing, I am really just super impressed and for $30 (christmas sale I think) you cant beat it lol
