    It’s okay. I find it cumbersome to change channels while using the Spectrum Cable TV App.

    Fast, high quality streaming, and a great replacement for an old Apple TV unit without having to drop over $100 on a new one while still getting all the content I wanted.

    I had to return this due to it not being responsive. It would only work about half the time. I exchanged it for the other model that was 4k as well. I think it was a signal issues. But this is the first model I've ever had issues with.

    I’ve been a fan of a roku for quite some time. But their new 4K devices have all had major problems. But luckily this one has been pretty good but it’s on a 720p tv so.

    I've had roku in the past which is why i decided to purchase again. This time around is completely different. It takes a while to connect and it tends to freeze a lot. It will restart on its own. This will definitely be my last time purchasing

    Did not work with my TV. I had it for less than 15 days. The day before returning it, it disconnected from my internet, the remote wouldn't allow me to reconnect or reset it.

      Hi Reed, thank you for sharing your experience. The issue seems unusual. We recommend restarting your Roku device by going to Home > Settings > System > System Restart. Additionally, please check your Wi-Fi connection for stability. For more guidance, visit: https://support.roku.com/article/213122277#section-1. You might also try connecting to a different network, such as a mobile hotspot, to determine if the issue lies with your Wi-Fi router or Roku device. Lastly, for a quick fix for your remote, you can try resetting it. For detailed instructions, you can refer to this link: https://support.roku.com/article/21306145024535#section-2. If you need further assistance, please let us know at support.roku.com/contactus. Thanks! Elmer, Roku Customer Advocate roku

    Green stripes and piercing noise -

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Stopped working correctly after 4 months. Streamed various Roku devices for years and had zero issues until now. This device will stop streaming and created green lines and a piercing noise within either a few minutes of streaming or within 30 minutes of start of streaming. Googled how to trouble shoot, tested tv with another Roku device and no issues. This isn’t tv related, this is actual Roku streaming device related, and too late to return. Very annoying. Tried multiple ways to correct, nothing helps.

    Roku is Great, Just Not This One

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have been using Roku devices for years, and currently have 5 active units in my house. I bought this one to hide behind a wall mounted TV, and it absolutely will not find the wireless receiver. I have tried every configuration imaginable, including different TVs, plugs, HDMI ports, etc. I always get the dreaded Error 022. Roku knows these are mostly defective, and refuses to admit it (Google Roku Error 022 just for fun). It's going back today.

    Unreliable and failed in less than 90 days. Twice.

    I have owned many Roku devices. This model is terrible, as I've had two fail in short order. The remote control volume buttons only work sporadically. Recognized wifi but stopped connecting, even after exhausting all troubleshooting steps and factory reset. Best Buy's short return policy means I'm stuck with the loss.

    Did not work as it should with my Vizio TV. Tried all of the online help & chat help. Only works by powering devices off then on in a specific order. a lot of trouble. Only thing worse was trying to get help from Vizio. My old Roku works well with a much older Sharp TV.
