Ok when it works, but most of the time it doesn’t

I bought this unit a few months ago, and when it works it is great - crisp video, reasonably fast processor, and the new remote is a big step up. Unfortunately, my unit has had a HDCP encoding issue, and getting it replaced or fixed has been a nightmare. Roku customer service first tried to charge me for replacing it, and then promised a replacement but never sent the exchange information when they said they would. Too bad, poor reliability and customer service ruined an otherwise great product.

Hello, Nick. We regret to learn about your unsatisfactory replacement experience. This level of service does not align with our standards, and we extend our apologies. We trust that you have successfully received the replacement and are prepared to resume streaming. If there is anything that we can assist you with down the road, please don't hesitate to reach out at support.roku.com/contactus.
Love the ease of use and voice control makes finding content so easy even a cave man can do it!! (Even a cable installer could do it with some guidance!)
Now add that “previous channel” button and you’re gold.
Only thing I wish I could do with the remote is return from the roku back to my cable box. Instead, I have to use my smart TV remote app.... but soon we will be streaming Spectrum anyway so it's not a big issue.
We paid extra for this model because of the remote features, but if you don't want those features, the less expensive 4k model will do. I love being able to charge the remote, and we like having the option of using the headphones.
This product has a constant buzzing noise every time it’s turned on. The only way to turn it off, is to reset it try changing cables and outlets, but got the same result.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this so I could watch Disney Channel. It works okay but I can't get my surround sound to work with it. Also when I watch shows on Spectrum I can't get the voice to sink up with the picture.
