I am constantly having to pull the batteries out and put them back in to get the remote to work rlght. The functions on the remote work about half the time and will correct sometimes if I tap it on the table or remove the batteries or reboot the receiver. It’s like it has a mind of its own. The first Roku device I bought never really worked correctly either, but was better than this second one. There’s got to be a better alternative than this junk. I won’t be buying a third Roku. Fool me once……
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good grief you gotta look carefully at everything before you buy. This unit will not function out of the box because it only includes a usb power cable. The power adapter is NOT included. Im returning it
I got this through the Marlboro rewards I really like it better than the Firestick. It’s a lot quicker going from app to app and using the app. The thing I don’t like about it is sometimes it just comes on automatically and changes to that input on the TV
On YouTube, if I don't use it. It losses it picture on YouTube. I have do a hard reset to get to work again. It seems it is not use everyday it misses up.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
