Yes, all Roku products have the Xfinity stream app.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I just got my first Roku, and I elected to get the Express because I wanted to be able to use my Logitech Harmony 665 remote with it; the Harmony is an infrared remote. According to Roku, all their streaming devices use the same software, so the streaming capabilities should be the same for all of them. The sticks do not use infrared, but instead use what Logitech calls an Enhanced “point-anywhere” remote. This remote communicates via WiFi, which is how you are able to plug the stick into the rear of the TV, out of sight. So, if you only use the Roku remote, you can get either the Express or the Stick, since they all use the same software; If you want to use a third party universal remote, most of those are infrared, so you would not be able to use any of the Sticks.
