Customers value the 3 Streaming Player's ease of use, smooth streaming capabilities, and intuitive remote control. Many appreciate the voice search function and the device's compact size. While some users noted shorter battery life and occasional heat generation, the positive feedback on performance and picture quality outweighs these minor drawbacks.

    This little box makes wonders for the entertainment in my house! I suggest you use a wired connection to the internet, unless your wifi is super powerful. Do not expect HD view, but you will get a very nice image.

    I've always had a wired mouse until my Dell mouse gave up the ghost. The wireless one is nice since you don't have to maintain control over a wiry snake on your desktop and you're not stuck to it's umbilical cord.

    We now have 2 roku boxes and one stick, we love them, just wish the remote was a little better, it is good quality but would be better if we could do more with it.

    Gets hot while doing nothing, doesn't play AVI

    I have pretty much every streaming device out there, this is the only one that does not play .AVI files without using another app. Really surprised and disappointed. Doesn't see any of my Windows boxes on my network either (says it supports DLNA but no luck there yet either). For some reason the device is always hot, not hot to the touch but hot enough to discolor furniture, so put something under it or have it breath some how. Overall not too impressed. Can't anyone make a good streaming device that will stream video without issues? The only reliable solution out there is a laptop and a $15 Windows remote.

    I wanted a streaming box that would also play videos on USB or other removable media. The Roku 3 is great because you can get all kinds of channels on it, plus you can use a USB drive to play videos, photos, etc.

    Have been very happy with how device works. Us it mostly for YouTube, Right now media & VidAngel. Unfortunately VidAngel had an injunction enforcement from a court case so has been shut down use it less now. Voice search could use improvement or I would give it a five star.

    If you are tired of paying high cable prices the this us a great alternative to stream only the shows your interested in. And many are for free. You'll need at least 15mbs internet speed to handle the stream smoothly.

    This product has allowed me to finally cut that cable cord! It is unreal how much programming you can find using the Roku. Pair it with a service such as Netflix or Hulu if desired, you won't be disappointed.

    Good little unit. Although it has almost no external functions and you have to have the remote at all times. The internal apps are basic and it would be good to have both Google Play and Vodu apps available.

    Lots of channels and tons of tv programs to choose from. Only negative thing about it is not many channels are free. It makes it out like there are a lot of free channels and movies but that is not the case. Must pay. Monthly fee on most options. Must have high speed internet.

    We took a look at a few of the various items to use so we could dump Bright House as our cable provider. And settled on Roku using the PlayStation Vue and saved. Lots of channels and playback capabilities.

    It is a great purchase to watch movies if you don't have cable. You will have to have internet for it to work. You do not have to put in a credit card you can skip over that unless you want to add one.

    After purchasing our roku i dont think ill go back to cable or satelite tv again. You get to watch whatever shows you like without having to spend a ton of money for channels you will never watch.

    I got this for my Dad so he could watch movies on Netflix and Amazon and reduce his cable package. He loves it. He is in his late 60's and loves being able to search old shows/movies using the voice control.

    The features of this are great. Wish it had certain channels available (i.e., CINEMAX), but otherwise has most popular channels. May occasionally have to "re-load" the content you are watching, but I do not know if that is a Roku issue, or something else.

    Roku 3 is a very small, and very intuitive package. It is a delight to use as it allows the user to stream the most sought out contents online. It does all of this while giving very nice portability.

    We have 2 Roku devices and we watch Netflix regularly. If you don't mind commercials there are a lot of free channels for movies and old TV shows. If you want to watch something this gives you variety.

    Hi. I enjoyed my roku it was a little diffrent than amazon fire stick but the same concept. I had some trouble with the Sony Playstation app . I recommend this for people who want to have better options than cable or streamers like myself. A smart investment.
