    Roku is awesome. I have a older TV that doesn't have any of the smart functionality and this little unit turns the set into a fully functional smart tv with all of the streaming services and apps i would need.

    It’s nice but I don’t think all the channels are in 1080p. Some channels don’t seem really clean and clear enough!

    • Brand response from Roku Team
      Posted .

      Hello Michael, thank you for letting us know. Some channels cannot show 1080p resolution because the provider doesn't offer it. This might be due to limits in their content, technical issues, or a choice to use lower resolutions for better compatibility with different devices and internet speeds. If they have not encoded their videos in 1080p, the Roku will display them at a lower resolution. To learn more about your device's display type, refer to this link at https://support.roku.com/article/115009246867. If you have other queries or need further assistance, please let us know at http://support.roku.com/
      Thanks!

    It's very nice to be able to access my cable channels and DVR recordings without having to be connected to a cable. I'm using this on my deck to watch sports while I grill out with friends and family.

    I bought this for my parent's 2015 Vizio TV that the apps where getting so slow that they were frustrating to use. The Roku - Express HD is a nice upgrade for them that gives them access to Disney+ and HBO Max.

    Using in older tvs to elimate the monthly box fee. I am able to use the xfinity app so I can watch all the channels and no longer need to pay $8.50 a month for their box.
