The remote freezes most of the time unless I get it right next to the tv.

Channel selection as I anticipated. Problem is unit keeps loosing remote connection and takes multiply tries to reconnect. Also keep experiencing server lose on all channels with an excellent connection. These points are really annoying.

Its okay, it beats having to pay for cable when you can just use a friends account and watch using their service provider. The only things that bug me is I cant finds some channels like TNT to watch basketball games and the other is i have noticed that it will occasionally stop and load in the middle of me watching. That may be due to my Internet speed which i have the cheapest plan with verizon. But all in all it is great and a great value....

Best Streaming Stick

Before I purchased the ROKU, I did a lot o of research on streaming sticks. I wanted to get this right the first time. I have two different ROKU devices. I purchased them so that I could cut the cord with cable/satellite. In comparison to the other sticks the ROKU I found to be the best. It has HULU, Netflix, Showtime, HBO, AmazonPrime, justto name a few, various news and sports apps. Right out of the box it was easy to setup and connect to my ROKU account and setup on my home network. I like the fact that I have the option to use my phone as a remote with the ROKU. I was able to setup my Feed using my phone. Feed is your list of favorite shows and movies. Less than 10 minutes out of the box and it was up and working. It has a great selection of TV apps and games apps. It transition smoothly from one selection to another
and is fairly quick. The remote works without any delay. I have friends who have the other sticks and I much prefer the ROKU. I highly recommend it.

Will never buy again!

I have had the first Roku basic box for over 5 years and love it. So when I found out about the Roku stick I was very excited to get it. I bought the first one on Oct. 25. In less than two weeks (Nov. 4) I was already returning it to the store to exchange for a new one. Because it just froze and wouldn't load up Netflix. Although it would work on other streaming channels but not Netflix. I checked my old Roku box and it was working just fine steaming Netflix. So I knew it was the stick. Then the second one just completely stopped working in less than 30 days, on Dec. 2. So I was back at the store exchanging for a new one. Well now that one has stopped working already, on Dec. 26. I am so frustrated and aggravated with the Roku stick I will never buy it again. I still have the original basic Roku box and it is still working like a charm. It's just the Roku stick that has issues from my experience.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
