    I do NOT recommend this Roku, because it lacks the microphone feature. Do yourself a favor and spend a tiny bit more to get the upgrade. You will not regret it. I had to upgrade, so this purchase turned out to be a waste.

    This Roku streaming device is not user friendly. It has no volume control. You have to use the TV remote to turn on and turn off the TV.

    Had Roku and loved it.Remote quit working so had to buy the whole new set up, not just the remote. Got this version and it was a dowgrade big time. Remote is cheap and you have to point it directly at the little tiny box or it wont work at all. Not as good of quality as original. Disappointment was big with this purchase.

    Its pretty awsome for watching movies, however, they do lose connection alot, it is nearly impossible to miracast to them from a pc, so the quality of the product does not equal to its value.

    We find using this device extremely confusing but it is saving us a monthly cable box rental fee, so it is cost-effective that way.

    It was nice having a bunch of apps I could use but it was very annoying having to login to each individually especially when the keyboard is on screen and you have to use the up, down and left, right keys to get around.

    Does not include any control for tv. No volume, on/off, slow connecting software… No charger included and it takes at least the 2.5 watt. Personally, I don’t recommend.

      Hello! We appreciate you choosing our products and sharing your thoughts with us. Please be advised that some devices come equipped with a Simple Remote. These lack TV controls (Power and Volume), so you must use your TV remote to control these functions. The current line of new Roku devices is limited to the HD Roku Express. In addition, in Roku model releases, the non-plus(+) models are generally equipped with a simple remote. However, if you wish to have functional access to your TV's power and volume buttons using the Roku remote, we recommend the Roku Voice remote.

    I needed a product that would Supply basic channels as well as streaming apps on a tv not connected to cable. I got half of what I wanted. It allows for some basic channels but not all.

    It works better than the phone app. Sometimes it doesn't respond and we have to reset. May not be compatible with older ROKU devices.
