My family cut ties with our monthly cable bill right before Xmas 2015. At first, there was an adjustment period with the Roku 3 Streaming Stick. We weren't able to scroll aimlessly through our channel line up to eventually find something that we agreed upon. Boy, did that get mindless. So many channels and nothing on!! Now, months later, we have 57 channel apps to choose from. Within some of the channels, there are add'l channels within the app to watch specific shows. With the Roku 3 channels, we are never at a loss to watch a show, movie or stream local tv using my smartphone apps (using 'mirroring' setting). Love the Roku 3 and the expanded ability to enjoy TV viewing again!!
I love the Roku Stick!! I purchased it for my second tv. My only issue is the remote it is small and it doesn't grip well in my hand, but it wouldn't stop me from purchasing another one.
Installation is simple! Set-Up is displayed on tv and walks you through each step! This model's response time is a 'bit slower' than the other Roku models...but I chose the inexpensive and easy to install model...and am pleased. (Why does a person need instant response anyway)?! Relax and enjoy all that Roku offers!
I am still getting use to it I had cable and satellite and the set up is different but I really do like the Roku if I can't watch my shows when There on I can still watch them at a later time I love that.
I purchased the Roku about 6 weeks ago, and so happy that I did. I saved quite a bit of money to ware I was paying for Cable which is so out rated!!!!!!!
In am totally disappointed with this purchase it will not retain info or return to next were you left of on a movie or series will discontinue using this and go back to the old devise
