Better speed to stream than Samsung

I purchased my Roku to improve the speed on my Samsung TV when streaming. In particular the Roku has improved performance incredibly when I am changing channels streaming FuboTV.

Great WiFi connection and great picture quality

I used the 1st generation Google Chromecast for years which has casting function only and it works great until 1 of them (I own 2) recently died which I used the most. So I bought the newest generation HD version Chromecast that also came with free live TVs and more. It was painful to get it set up as part of the reason it took ages and a few tries to pick up my wifi but Roku was a breeze. Then, just using the new Chromecast for casting Youtube videos from my phone is terrible. It has tons of ads and don't auto stop in 5 secs like with the 1st generation does, plus there is a lot of lag time especially watching free channels. After a few days, the Wifi pick up got worst, it stops every few seconds of playing. I place the 1st generation side by side and switch between them where the 1st generation Chromecast has no issue. I returned the new Chromecast and bought the Roku and it's like day and night and even better than the 1st Gen Chromecast. No lag time at all, video is clear and great quality all time. So I can confirm that Roku has a much stronger pick up signal with my Wifi which locates in my basement appx 58 ft away. As for live or free TV, movie and more, it has more and longer ads which is expected and it doesn't bother me since they are free. You can always subscribe and pay for other streaming services and perhaps that way you can avoid ads...not sure.

Good enough for the price

Does it’s job like it’s supposed to. Only problem is it constantly has problems connecting to my phones hot spot. The hot spot will be off and it will say it’s a possible internet source. It takes about five min to get it up and running.

Great, and easy interface, but the remote control is very cheaply made and the volume buttons on the side only works occasionally
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent, but the USB cable didn't work so well
on January 1, 2024
Posted by: ScipioAfricanus
from Silicon Valley
I bought this unit to replace a 5 year old model that started to have problems. The new unit plays our channels flawlessly, but our TV would not provide sufficient power through the USB cable, which seemed too short to be totally useful. We eventually plugged the new unit into the old power supply, which solved the low/no power issue.
I would recommend this to a friend!
