Roku Streaming Stick 4K - HDR & Dolby Vision Roku Streaming Device for TV with Voice Remote & Long-Range Wi-Fi - Free & Live TV

Our cable bill had become astronomical, like a car note. Oddly enough, a customer service representative at our cable company was the one who suggested the Roku Stick, saying that he owned one. I returned the cable boxes & purchased the Roku Stick. The instructions were detailed & simple. I had it installed in about 5 minutes. The rest of the setup of login & app downloads is also pretty simple. There’s a variety of free apps available offering a range of shows, movies, documentaries, etc. Some of the free apps I’ve downloaded actually allow me to watch shows that weren’t available on the car note pricey cable. Having the Roku Stick actually requires you to be intentional about watching tv because you have to actually choose something from an app instead of just being able to turn on the tv & let whatever just play. I recommend it.

I have owned several different Roku devices over the years. Love them all. The content that is available on them is amazing. I wanted to add a Roku to my Samsung 65” smart tv. I have a digitalcable box but wanted to add some more content to the tv that was not available thru the Samsung apps. This was real easy to set up and love that I was able to connect the power directly to the tv, thus avoiding trying to connect it to an outlet. Everything is behind the tv and out of sight for a clean look. I have found no lag time in streaming any of the content from the Roku and the picture quality and sound is great. I couldn’t be happier with my choice.

I had a few friends and family who have been using Roku for a few years and had been trying to convert me for a while. I have been in the Amazon ecosystem for a long time and was very hesitant to abandon my Fire Stick... however, I was noticing that I had to replace my Fire Sticks about every 1-2 years because they would slow down and get very glitchy. Even with updates and full factory resets, nothing would bring them back to functioning like new. When it came time to replace my third Fire Stick within a 4-year span, I decided to make the jump to Roku.All I can say is, I SHOULD HAVE SWITCHED SOONER! Upon setting up the Roku Stick, I started falling in love with it almost immediately. It was quick, responsive, easy to use... and it just "worked." All of the apps that I am used to were easy to locate and download, plus I was excited to see the amount of no-charge content available to supplement my streaming apps, such as the Roku Live TV Channel.Best of all, I have had this streaming stick for months now and I see no slow-down or degradation of performance like I used to experience with the Fire Stick. This thing feels just as snappy as the day I started using it, and as corny as it sounds, using my Roku makes me look forward to turning on my TV when I am relaxing at night. As a side note, I have found that the Roku is also great for my AIrbnb because it features a "Guest Mode" so that I can allow guests to log in to their own accounts, while my own "main" profile remains protected and ready for me to switch back to once guests leave. I also love that when guests log out, it automatically wipes all of their personal log in and downloads of any apps that they used. What a smart feature.All of this to say, I am so glad that I made the switch to Roku. I hope that they maintain this level of quality and keep innovating, because this is the kind of rare product that is a joy to use and truly enhances my entertainment experience.

I have an older TV that I was ready to get rid of and upgrade to a smart TV until I found this device. My TV runs fine with the exception of slight yellowing in the middle of the screen but when you’re watching your favorite show, you really don’t care about it. I will eventually upgrade to a smart TV, but for now this device is amazing! It took me literally three minutes to set up and all I did was sign into a few apps which was easy as well and I was ready to go. The picture is decent and the sound quality is decent as well. This was a great buy.

I love my Roku sticks, however I do have a lot of issues with them! Batteries on the remote burn through like crazy and there is no warning when the battery is about to go out. You push a button on the remote and go to press another and the battery is dead! Also have a lot of problems with the remote losing connection with the device. Same problem works fine one second then have to reset and reconnect remote. So very frustrating. This latest model seems to be worse than the others I have. I still would not give up my Roku but I wish they would fix these issues (I will be purchasing a rechargeable remote at some point maybe this will fix the battery problem)

Spectrum every like 6 months raise their prices and my dad at some point said, enough with this so he started looking into lowering the price. We called them directly and they worked with the price, but when my dad started paying attention to the bill, he noticed a fee for the DVR box, which he was not told at any other time he has called before, so he called and he requested information about the DVR box, fee, and how to remove it from the bill. He found the answer from the rep "remove the DVR box, get yourself ROKU, set it up with your Spectrum account and that's all, you'll save every month because the DVR fee will be removed". I believe my dad told me it was like $28 a month. Anyway, he not only purchased 1, he end up getting another one for a different room where he had another DVR so you can understand the DVR fee DROPPED drastically. I do recommend the Roku Streaming Stick 4K. We needed the adapter so we emailed ROKU with the serial number for each box we own and they sent us the adapter for FREE. Read the instructions to find out what needs to be done to order the adapters for free! Since my family wanted to watch Telemundo, then ROKU worked, because my dad has a cable subscription with SPECTRUM, but if you don't have a cable subscription, you still can watch FREE TV using The Roku Channel, Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex, and Freevee. Also, you can use ROKU to stream apps like Netflix, HULU, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+ and more when you have a paid subscription!
