    The remote with this version is very basic. It was easy to set up and works fine for the guest room TV I installed it on. For a more often used TV I would recommend spending the extra $10 and get the 4K version.

    Purchased for my son who is starting out on his professional career. He uses this every day and finds the use easy. For young professional who don't want to invest in expensive cable TV service fees.

    Kids had recently cut the cable and lacked viewing options. Simple inexpensive purchase coupled with an older tv (no apps) and an already existing Amazon account a instant content to watch.

    Smaller and better than before. An excellent product. I would definitely purchase another one for all the other TVs in my home. The price range was very good too.

    Roku vs iPhone vs SwitchLite

    After my family added another TV to the house, the existing ones got handed down to our 2 kids. The youngest child got a Samsung TV that was not a smart TV and she always watched YouTube from her phone or SwitchLite. So we decided to get the Roku so she could stream other content and watch it comfortably from her bed in her room. She loves watching Disney+. This item was so easy to use and setup. We did it in less than 5 minutes. It has a remote control app that you can install on your smartphone which she prefers to use it over the roku remote. Great product.

    For not a lot of $, my small TVs are now “smart”. Easy to hook up and operate and doesn’t take up space. I had a small TV in my kitchen and couldn’t find a smart tv small enough for the space but was trying to get away from cable. This is a great alternative.

    Easy to set up. We don't like voice commands to watch TV so this worked plus it was very inexpensive. The quick buttons for Disney+, hulu, and Netflix are nice touches.

    Bought this back in December so I could stream Disney + to watch The Mandalorian. My 2015 Samsung smart TV didn't support Disney + even though it was fine with Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. Salesman talked me through what to do once home with my purchase but I actually found a You Tube video on this model so just followed along with it and installation was a breeze. I was watching my shows in no time. Have used it quite a lot during the pandemic so very glad I purchased this. I would highly recommend.

    I bought this Roku to replace the old box style Roku I had. It wasn’t updating and so, I replaced it with this compact version. Very happy with the capacity and how well it works.
