A: Thank you for reaching out. The best buy title shows "DisplayPort USB" which means the DisplayPort protocol running through a USB-C connector. You can also read it as Type C DisplayPort Alt mode. This means it has the USB-C physical connector with the DisplayPort signal.
Q: Will this monitor work with Roku stick in the HDMI port
A: The monitor is equipped with a mini HDMI port and comes with a cable to full size HDMI. If the device only has male HDMI then you would need to adapt the connection to work with mini HDMI. My guess is this won't work out of the box with a "stick" device unless you can find accessories to adapt connection. This could work with a streaming box that has full size HDMI via provided cable but then you will have to power monitor over usb-c. Using a phone charger USB-C cable has worked for me (mainly I've used the USB-A to C cable from my laptop for power and provided mini HDMI cable for video from my laptop). The cleanest way to operate the device is power and video from laptop or device that supports video and power over USB-C. The provided USB-C cable in the box will allow that functionality.

A Great Choice
When working on spreadsheets I need a second monitor for my laptop to make it easier to move between applications. So far, this is a great choice. It is the same size as my laptop monitor, which makes it easier to move windows between monitors. It is also very light weight so I can travel with it when necessary. Comes with a protective sleeve and needed cables.
