    Meets my minimum requirements, but does not have volume control. The USB plug-in works great for my limited space tv receptacle.

    • Brand response from Roku Team
      Posted .

      Hello, Allen. Thank you for choosing our products and sharing your feedback. Some devices have a Simple Remote that doesn’t have TV controls (Power and Volume), so you'll need your TV remote for those functions. The only new Roku devices available are the HD Roku Express and non-plus(+) models that typically come with a Simple Remote. We recommend the Roku Voice Remote if you want to control your TV's power and volume with the Roku remote. For a comparison of remote features, please visit https://www.roku.com/products/accessories/compare. If you have further questions or need assistance, contact us at https://support.roku.com/contactus. Happy Streaming! Bernie, Roku Customer Advocate roku

    It is NOT easy to set up the Roku TV to sync with this device. We STILL cannot get local Hawaii TV channels. The instructions are confusing online and we don't have the prompts that they indicate. We've tried for days a few weeks ago and gave up. We can only watch special channels like Roku, Netflix since we have a Netflix account. I don't recommend purchasing this brand of TV.

    Bought this for my mother-in-law. She could not complete the set up on her own, a bit complicated with the different accounts (assuming you want Hulu or something). But after a tedious start, she is able to navigate and watch her shows.

    Had to return the first one but they had a replacement delivered with express shipping. Haven't had any problems since. Sometimes the adhesive tape unsticks from the tv not often.

    I had a coupon, so got this for around $10. It worked as advertised, I am able to get all my streaming services in HD. Worth every penny!
