I needed an updated version of a streaming device and always used Roku and have always enjoyed the products. And it was on sale so was a great time to get it.
I have fire stick, and I love my fire stick, but there are some streaming apps that are only on Roku. My Roku has tons of really fun streaming apps it has boomerang and I love watching cartoons and just being a kid again. my only regret is, I didn’t buy a Roku sooner.
I was given this as a gift and didn't use as I have a smart TV. However, this awards season for movies and TV is not using screeners so I plugged my Roku in and downloaded the app. It's been fantastic.
Your product is disgustingly slow and non responsive. I consider it a waste of money and use my built in service on my Vizio TV.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
