I have the ROKU 3 as well as the stick, the only difference is that I don't have the voice search ability in the stick as I do in the 3, but I use it on my secondary TV, and I still get everything the 3 has, an I love it
i bought this having already purchased a amazon fire stick. i really like both of them, plus side of the roku is the vudu app. the down side is that the remote keeps freezing up on me and i have to take out one of the batteries and put back in, usually 2-3 times while viewing different apps. it is bothersome but not enough to not buy another one for our other tv's. i really like the sticks, they work better than a smart tv. my smart tv always buffers no matter what i do. the stick does not do this and they are connected to the same wifi. i will not buy another smart tv for this reason. so it's a hdtv with a roku stick for me.
I have had my Roku stick for a month now and love it. Every family member has there own account and offers plenty of shows and movies. Wish I purchased one sooner.
Easy, simple, works great and the wifi remote makes it very useful since my TV is just connected to the HDMI cable (the Roku stick connected to the Audio/Video Receiver is in a closet).
I bought this a while ago and love the streaming tv!!!! My only complaint is it cuts out, looses the channel off and on. It comes back, but takes a minute or so. When watching big football games this can be VERY frustrating. My other complaint is the remote. Since day 1 it sometimes will not work. You have to take the batteries out, put them back in and then it works. We have tried replacing the batteries with no luck. But this is the lowest model of Roku, so we are considering upgrading.
I bought the Roku specifically to watch old tv programs on youtube. However once I purchased I was amazed at how many options there were for tv watching. I love my Roku Streaming Stick and it was definitely worth the purchase
