Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works great, super simple set up, great picture, great value

We have a smart TV that is six years old. Brand new, in my mind. But it’s not as smart as it used to be and some apps were not working. For just a few dollars, we added the Roku to our TV and now it is brilliant! We can also take it in our camper and it turns that very dumb TV into a genius. An excellent bargain for us.

I needed to buy this because my brand-new Samsung OLED TV did not fully support the Paramount+ app. The setup was easy and painless. I wish you could connect a Bluetooth keyboard to the unit or configure the unit via a web interface; it is difficult to scroll up/down left/right to enter your email and password if it uses complex symbols. Other than that it works great and the picture quality is good at true 4k. The included HMDI cable is extremely short though, I had to use a store-bought one because the USB port and HDMI ports are on the back of the TV (most TVs are that way) and they should give you an HDMI cable that is at least 5 feet so you can have the unit face you. That way the remote will work correctly.

We needed such a device to make an older tv smart. Setup was quick and completed with no difficulty. All functions work as advertised and we're happy with the product.

Roku device is awesome. Works well for streaming easily connects to TV with HDMI

best product since digital tv can get tons of free channels without paying cable charges easy to navigate voice commands easy installation bought an antenna too but returned it since so many channels already through roku device local channels available by downloading app hardest part was remembering my wi-fi password

I spent nearly $1000 on our living room TV around 8 years. Although the picture quality on it is great, the user interface has really slowed down over the years to the point where you would press a button on the remote and would have to wait around 2-3 seconds before the tv responded. Solution: Just plug one of these Roku's in, ditch the old tv remote, and just use this! TV now runs better than it did when it was new! Also, I like how it gives you the ability to customize the background of the homepage and add animated screensavers.

Excellent value! great picture, easy to use, comprehensive channel options. Best value and functionality out there, recommend using even if you have a smart TV

Super easy to install and use. All the apps I love are already loaded and ready to go. I have an older tv so I was worried about it not being 4K and it wasn’t an issue. Very clear picture

My smart TV quit streaming You-tube TV. Don't know why? Purchased Roku device. Easy set-up. Works as advetised.

Streaming player was easy to install and works as advertised. Easy to use with lots of apps available. Also controls TV volume and On/Off. Excellent picture quality.

Exactly what I needed for our TV that cannot get cable connected.

Easy setup, easy to use. Love the voice remote's ability to control power and volume on the TV; I can usually keep the TV's remote safely stored aside. I use these on a couple of older non-smart TVs and it really makes them feel like smart TVs! Additionally, this little box is often a better performer than the built in smart functions on many smart tvs, so it's still a worthwhile upgrade even there! I've bought three of this model so far, and am very impressed. Little to no lag, regular updates to OS and apps, excellent streaming performance.

Works great! We weren't sure what to expect and were skeptical. We didn't realize there were so many free channels just with Roku. We watch Pluto's free programs/movies a lot, but also did add a subscription service (FRNDLY) that is very reasonable and has been worth the money. We have the midrange service of FRNDLY and paid it annually to save money so, out the door annual cost for FRNDLY was about $102 for the year, which included taxes. Roku is great streaming/on-demand equipment and even had free channels.

I had bought the 4k stick, but it somehow wasn't compatible with my tv using the HDMI eARC channel to connect the TV to my receiver. This device is pretty comparable -- the only difference is that the stick came with an RF remote, which didn't require line-of-sight, like the IR remote that comes with the express. Transmits in 4k and has a stronger processor than the non-4k Express it replaced. Plus the remote has a microphone, so you can open apps, turn on/off closed captioning, etc. by voice. Great deal at $27. For the record, Best Buy is a lousy retailer. Service is slow, online ordering is a hassle -- especially if you're trying to get something price-matched (which, in the end, they couldn't do), and order pick-up was totally dysfunctional. And managers are rude if you have the least bit of concern about their service. The rating is purely for the product, not for Best Buy as seller.

I needed to replace and older Roku in my son's room. I can certainly tell this is a newer model. The lag is noticably decreased. Picture is fantastic. Every streaming service or network is available. I have one on every TV in our home (3). The voice input works fast and flawlessly. As the title says, I have nothing to compare it to. I can't imagine another brand could be any better, especially for the price. I highly recommend this model.

Perfect little device. Easy to use and take with you on the road. Load times are fast and quality is good. Remote feels solid compared to the older versions.

I absolutely love it I watch TV everyday it's my main source of entertainment I love the microphone feature of it I don't know what else to say it's great

Great product, would recommend it to anyone. Easy to install and operate. The quality of the television movies and sports are awesome!!

This is awesome! I hesitated for years to get a Roku, thinking setup and use would be complicated, but it's really very simply and lets my kids access everything we have subscriptions to, and more. I rarely watch tv, but I still think the purchase is worth it.
