    Rokus are great and they run a little smoother than the fire stick.

    When the Roku works, it is great. We have older TVs that are not smart TVs that we put these on. They give error messages frequently, and then can't be used unless you unplug the TV and reboot. When they work, they are great!

    A Mind of Its Own

    Volume control doesn’t function properly. It has a mind of its own. No matter what button you push it will randomly go in the opposite direction. It’s infuriating, but you won’t be able to test it until you’ve spent the time to enter enter all of your streaming sources.

    After every power startup and showing the home screen, then it takes about 10 seconds for the roku unit to respond to any remote clicks. This is the 2nd unit with the same problem. Tried many support/community suggestions including batteries, resets, cache clear, etc. but nothing helps. It's annoying every time I go to use it.

    The remote sucks. The battery life is horendous. I've never gone through so many batteries on a remote like this. It's really really bad. Not sure why it drains the batteries so fast.

      Posted .

      Hi Patrick, we appreciate your feedback and we're here to help. Please be aware that if you are using private listening, it will typically drain the battery on your remote faster than when not being used. Be sure to always unplug your headphones when not in use as this will help to preserve your remote's battery life.

      Alternatively, it may also help to utilize a different power source. For example, if the USB power cable from your Roku player is currently connected to the USB port on your TV, we would recommend that you connect the USB cable directly to a wall outlet or power strip.

      And if you continue having trouble, don't hesitate to connect with a member of our support team directly at support.roku.com/contactus so that we can assist.

      Happy Streaming!
      Roku Customer Advocate roku
