It's much better than my older Roku, which is slow and lacks a lot of video streaming capability. A good thing about it is I can watch basic cable including steaming games on it. It's also convenient that it doesn't need an HDMI cable with it
The only problem with the streaming stick is it's not compatible with as many harmony remotes according to their website. Some other Roku's, appear to be compatible, however.
I bought the streaming stick a month a go for my third TV because i have two other roku 2 XS and they work very well. With the stick however the remote suddenly stop working a week a go i have no clue why i have change the battery it still does not work , otherwise everything seems ok screen comes up but i cannot do anything but before that i loved it now not so much. If not for the remote i would give it a five stars.
Bought the Roku Stick to replace the worthless and overpriced cable. Between the Roku, and a digital antenna, I have more than enough TV to watch......without a huge cable bill.
Works ok downstairs, but can be really frustrating when using upstairs, as it keeps buffering, sometimes it just gets stuck on 25%, and we land up giving up. Our provider is Sky!
