Amazing product hat had so much more than I expected. Still so much more to discover. I only have one complaint. I really wish the remote included the headphone jack as featured on one of the other generations. Would have paid more for the stick edition if such a choice was given.
I've owned a Roku streaming stick from the day it was made available. The Roku ended up completely replacing my Chromecast, it just had so much more to offer at the time. Chromecast has since added more channels but it still can't compete with the Roku. The Roku comes with a nice little remote as well. Only downside is that it takes a little time to load channels, but it's not even that bad.
I had recently purchased another product that was harder to set up but the ROKU was so easy. Takes up no space like the other item that is this box and hooks to my modem and has wires. I would highly recommended this product to anybody out there.
I have both the Streaming stick and the plug in version. The Streaming stick is very slow to download. It is all but impossible to get Netflix's to download, Hu-Lu will download as well as the now canceled Aereo
Love the convenience of the Roku streaming stick, but the interface lags frequently - not sure if it's the software or some problem with the remote control
