    The sensor to remote connection becomes weak after a few hours. I’ve had this remote for less than a month. Overall it’s alright.

    It’s an inexpensive way to get streaming but the wires seem to have to be adjusted frequently to get it to work properly.

    Multiple units emitted a high pitch noise when no audio was playing, when audio played it was fine. After returning units and new ones also did the same thing, I decided to just live with it. I hooked up an old Roku unit to the same TV and the noise was not present. It's the units defective in my opinion.

    This is a Roku stick that provides streaming cable, free, however, without strong, fast, reliable Internet this product will not perform well. Making frame rates very slow but only recommend buying if fast Internet with new TV.

    There is one critical thing wrong with this device, it doesn't work on 5ghz wifi channel. I didn't know it when i bought it and not I'm outside my returnable period and it doesn't work to stream during peak hours. I like it's functionality all around, but it doesn't matter if you can't use it all the time.
