I am the proud owner of 2 Roku2s and a Roku Stick, They're wonderful, if they worked a little faster it would easily be 5 stars. Occasional app hiccups occur as well, but over all I am extremely pleased with all of my Roku products
I am from southamerica, I bought it on a trip to California last month and it took me by surprise that I cannot see netflix despite it is available in my country. Similar devices from apple and Google do work here. I wish I knew this before.
I own the Roku3 and love it. I bought the Roku Streaming Stick as a present for my in-laws and got to set it up for them. It is half the price but certainly not half the value. I purchased a second Roku Streaming Stick after using the MiraCast feature with my Windows Surface Pro on my Roku3. It worked so well that I wanted a portable version and love it now on the road with my Roku Stick.
I bought this about a week ago and was SUPER excited because I had gotten a Roku box for Christmas a couple years ago; sadly, it was misplaced.. When I got my Roku stick I thought it would work in comparison! But it hasn't! I'm so disappointed! It is taking anywhere between 30 min to an hour to open a single app like YouTube and Netflix with my router in the same room!! What in the world?! I don't understand what's going on... Roku used to be such a fantastic product. What has happened?
I had purchased both the Roku stick and Chromcast at the same time. My Chromecast is now collecting dust for the most part. (The only thing I use it for is to cast my phone) Roku is so user friendly that my 4yr old can use it to watch Netflix, Hulu Plus & Disney on her own. Using the Roku App as well as remote is a plus.
There are so many channels to chose from! I don't have cable or satellite and after purchasing the Roku I'll never return. Always a clear picture! I'd recommend to anyone
For the past 2 1/2 years I have had a roku, as a matter of fact, just bought another. It is the only TV I have and I love it! Saves over $100/month in cable bills and I can watch almost anything I want. I would recommend this to anyone on a tight budget.
