This works pretty well when playing video, but navigating windows and the various interfaces is a real pain. The going is so slow, and I know my wifi connection is strong and excellent. The videos play fine with very, very little buffering. I do like the specific-to-Roku interfaces for certain channels, like YouTube for example. Overall, not bad, but there's room for improvement.
Received the Roku Streaming Stick as a Christmas gift. It was extremely easy to connect to the TV and set up with Netflix which we already subscribed to. The remote is lightweight and easy to use. All in all, a very enjoyable experience. I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in streaming and wants to to it without a struggle. Also Roku offered many choices and several free months of several sites.
I bought the streaming stick to replace my old roku that was about 5 years old, nothing wrong with the old one, just wanted to upgrade. I love that I don't have to have the remote pointed at the tv/roku in order for it to work. I also love that I can use the roku app on my iPhone as a controller too! The roku is unbeatable! Easy setup, easy navigation and everything I want to watch is right at my fingertips! I cut the cable cord a few months ago and bought an antenna. The antenna, coupled with roku, has been a very easy transition and I'll never go back to cable. I recommend roku to anyone I know and anyone that will listen!
