It works just like the boxes and is more compact. Though it may not be clear from the pictures it requires a powered usb connection to work. A wall adapter is provided, but will work off a TV's usb source. Thus, wires remain completely hidden.
I bought ROKU device about one month ago. Easy to install, and generally fairly easy to understand, however the remote is a piece of trash. Not the fault of batteries as I have installed numerous new(premium)batteries. The remote is trash.
It's been a month since I purchased my Roku, and I love it so much I canceled my cable. I had the top of the line cable package because in order to get the channels I wanted I had to. I hated commercials, so I got a PVR to watch what I wanted when I wanted. Now with my Roku, I can do the same but at a fraction of the cost. I'm not very good at electronics and this was so easy to set up and so user friendly. I recommend it to my friends and family. I hope to see more of my shows, keep up the great work.
I was pleasantly surprised with the Roku Streaming Stick. I anticipated problems with setting up the device and discovered it could not have been easier! The user-interface is great and full featured, especially considering the relatively low price of the stick. This is a great way to get into streaming. Thanks Roku!
We love the ROKU Stick except we have bought 2 in the last 2 months the first one was fine for a couple weeks then we had to take it back and get a new one...NOW this new ROKU stick is doing the same thing as the first one. It just won't work any more. I am not sure if it is the remote going bad or if it is the stick but it could be both going bad. I have RoKu on my big screen smart TV in the living room and my husband and I have the ROKU 2 in our bedroom and have never had a problem with it. So we bought our daughter the stick for her bedroom and she also has a new smart TV. I am not sure what is going on. can you please help let me know if there is something I can try before taking it back to the store. thanks!
