There is no phone number to call for help. I started over the nexted day and used my laptop instead of my phone. It finally went thorough. Then it was great.

Annoying remote
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product works fine. After a couple of months, the find the remote beep keeps going off quite frequently. Not been able to find a remedy for it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendLots of long pauses while watching some shows
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm not real pleased with this device. It's not nearly as easy to use as it sounds. We get a lot of error messages and there seems to be a lot of spooling. It's difficult to navigate.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNice picture when it works.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Problems with WiFi connection even though Roku states connected. Gave up after getting disconnected with the internet provider twice. Now it’s in a drawer. Waste of $50.00. Glad it wasn’t more.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNo go roku
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never attempted to use it. started looking online at how to get it set up and so many people said that it's scrambled their TV we didn't even want to take a chance. bummer because we were hoping to be able to use it at the hotel. but that wouldn't have worked very well either as the USB port was in the back of the TV and the thing needs line of sight communication to work the remote
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood streamer but terrible remote!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Remote sucks!! Goes through aaa batteries everyday. Also only stays connected part of the time. I’ve read this is an issue but come on roku really this is the best you can do? Vet unsatisfied
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDisappointed
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Started requiring power removal & restart after 6 months. Issue has only gotten worse. My other Roku TV is great but this stick is not.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendRoku has stopped working after a few weeks.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Roku has stopped working after a few weeks. My previous Roku lasted about a year and stopped working. This is not Best Buy's problem or fault. It is a Roku problem.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendThe Roku Channel has hundreds of free movies
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used Roku for years,including several different models.The best new thing of note is Roku has recently released The Roku Channel,which has hundreds of free movies.It is ad supported.Roku has just about every app you can imagine (YouTube/Pandora/Netflix/Amazon/Hulu/HBO Now) plus tons of more apps in many different categories.Here are some points to consider when deciding on which model of Roku to buy: 1)If you need to connect by WiFi in a room far away from your WiFi router,I would recommend the Roku Streaming Stick PLUS or Roku Ultra. 2)If you have a 4K TV,I would recommend the Roku Ultra or Roku Streaming Stick PLUS. 3)To search for content using your voice,go with either the Streaming Stick,Streaming Stick PLUS or Ultra. 4)If you want a wired ethernet connection,go with the Roku Ultra. 5)If you want to connect to an old TV with RCA/Composite audio/video jacks,you will need the Express PLUS 6)The Express models have a remote where it has to be pointed at the device,unlike the other Roku models. 7)If you are only going to buy one Roku device,I would recommend the Roku Ultra.The Ultra has many unique features that the other Roku models don't such as: -Gaming buttons to play video games -Remote finder to find a lost remote control -Ethernet port for a wired connection -Micro SD card slot -USB Port -Night listening mode (this lowers the volume of loud,explosive sounds and raises the volume of soft sounds like whispers.Very useful!) -Headphone jack on the remote for listening without disturbing others
I would recommend this to a friendWhen it works, we like it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.it works, but has to have adapter because it is too big to fit in the HDMI port. Due to having to use adapter, which wont let roku always connect, had to tape to keep in place

No, I would not recommend this to a friend Dead in three months
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this on 5/21. Used it sparingly in our nursery during late night feedings. It started freezing and rebooting sporadically in July. It progressively got worse and more frequent. I tried a factory reset and it doesn’t run long enough to get through set up. FYI Roku support is a joke. I’ve had an open ticket since 8/22, it’s now 9/6. I’m officially done with Roku.
