    A fine option for streaming apps. Originally purchased to replace cable box, but have had some issues with the cable company so now it is used as a backup platform for streaming services.

    I probably should have done more homework before buying this Roku unit. I purchased it to upgrade an older HDTV. I don't even know if the unit will power up since it DOES NOT COME WITH AN AC POWER CORD! It only comes with a USB power cable. My older HDTV is not equipped with a USB power outlet and neither does any other component in the system I want to use this with. This Roku is not 4K and can only be used with a standard HDTV. As most TVs are 4K these days, that means that this unit will be install primarily on older HDTVs. A product design that assumes the availability of a USB power outlet on TVs that didn't have that feature yet is a fatal flaw. This means that you have to buy an AC adapter if you want to use this unit. Best Buy does not sell this adapter and the Roku website is sold out. This is my first experience with Roku and it is a complete fail on their part. This is the first time I've ever bought a product that wasn't ready to use right out of the box. Forcing people to have to go back and buy an accessory item just to plug the product into an AC outlet is an unforgivable omission and hassle. My first impression of Roku is that they are a rinky-dink outfit too chinsey to supply what you need for their product to work!

      Posted .

      Hi Bill, thanks for taking a moment to share. We're sorry to hear that it didn't work out. We appreciate your feedback. Please know that each Roku player will have different power requirements. The power adapter was removed from the 2022 Roku Express because the player is low power enough to be powered by nearly any TV via the TV's USB port. Removing the power adapter also helps reduce clutter and hanging cords. In the meantime, use a regular power adaptor that you believe works and check it. If you happen to have an issue with your Roku device not powering on, we recommend you visit us online at support.roku.com/contactus to get in touch with chat support.
      Thanks!
