Did not like it at all... ALL of my USB ports are behind the TV's... so you can't use the "REMOTE". Would only recommend the STICK if you can directly see the ROKU.
I bought the Roku streaming stick when we switched to antenna TV so we could stream Amazon and Netflix. It is very easy to use and even easier to set up. The navigation is easy and simple to use. It is easy to find and add apps. Our only issue has been the remote control. It appears the remote stops responding at times.
I bought this 2 months ago. I love the features but the remote control sticks. And I have to buy a USB angle connection because the long stick didn't fit well with the connection of my TV.
I have 25 Mbps internet speed and my streaming is slow even if I'm not using other devices in the house. I can be watching a channel and then it freezes for anywhere between a few seconds to a few minutes and sometimes it freezes all together where I have to unplug the power to get started. The platform is easy to use and but the streaming makes it frustrating to watch live TV, especially sports. It doesn just fine with Netflix and Amazon Prime but watching cable through Sling TV is truly hit or miss because it always seems to be freezing.
I like the ease of use easy to hook up I am not happy when it freezes up while I am trying to watch a sports event or a show happens a lot in the evening during prime viewing time very frustrating please fix asap.
