    Great portable streaming device. We take it everywhere with us. I would buy one with volume control next though.

    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!

    This is my forth Roku device. The first of the newer express models. Other than the physical change on the outside, I can't see that big of a difference in performance. My family and I really enjoy using our Rokus.

    It's not an Apple TV. It does what its designed to do well, but not best in class. We got this for a guest room TV and it works well.

    Added another TV in the basement over exercise equipment, giving us something other than the wall to look at.

    I purchased this in place of a cable box to watch spectrum. It buffers more than I want but that’s probably due to the structure of the cable lines in my neighborhood. That said, it was worth the $29.99.

    I just unplugged and switched to all streaming. Utilizing 4 Roku's, each on a separate TV. What would make this product even better? I wish the keys were back-lit and I wish we could customize the preset buttons!

    Not very good to other Roku devices I have purchased. It seems like it loses wifi signal easily and the receiver must be clear and visible for the remote to work.
