    This is my first venture into the world of Roku. I must admit that I am blown away. Transitioning from a second generation Chromecast to Roku Express was an unbelievable upgrade. The Roku has the same interface as all other Roku streaming devices. It isn't designed for 4K Tvs, and you lose some functionality on the remote compared to more expensive Roku devices. But by downloading the android app, you can utilize some of those lost features including voice commands. I highly recommend Roku and this device in particular.

    The remote works fine but they were out of the one I really wanted so I went ahead and grabbed this one not realizing it had no tv controls. My fault for not paying attention but personally I don't think they should even make one without tv controls, however, that's not Best Buy's fault. Still lovin' BB.
