We got the Roku Streaming Stick so we wouldn't have to disconnect our Roku3 to watch AcornTV on our other sets. So far it has worked as described with no hitches. (Except that it seems to take a little longer for the stick to connect with our wifi than the 3 does.)
I bought one of the original Roku sticks and loved it. I bought another one for a different room but this one is slow and glitchy. I can't tell if its just this one or the new rev of the Roku stick is cheapened from the original. Either way, not happy this time around.
I have owned the ROKU for about one month now. It as very easy to install but I had to go online and add more apps. It is ideal for cord cutters as it responds very quickly and offer the best of the premium channels.
My remote from Roku has not worked properly since I bought it. Whenever I try to use it for Netflix, it freezes up. Sometimes changing the batteries around helps for getting to another screen but then it freezes up again. I'm sorry I don't have anything better to say.
I bought this a couple of months ago to enhance my decision to cut cable. The variety of program options has been great. The stick works very well and is fast enough in processing that I have not noticed any significant buffering slowing and the remote responds quickly as you would hope.
