I am so happy now I accidentally lost my Roku remote. I set out to just buy another Roku remote, but it was cheaper just to buy this. To my surprise, this is much much more upgraded!!! I have way more channels and apps than I did before and I had a TON! No exaggeration. (And I still have cable tv which I can cancel with this. I was nervous as I wasn’t sure what I’d be limited to). Wildly, to my surprise, my picture quality has gotten even better. There’s no lagging when watching football or sports on any of the apps like I do on my more expensive TVs throughout my house (after getting rid of cable boxes & using the apps via cable. This has no issues & I don’t even need cable. Why this doesn’t lag and my expensive smart tvs do, no idea). I am literally blown away and so glad I made this purchase and it was less expensive than replacing a lost remote. Beyond beyond happy. I would suggest this over my Apple TV box honestly. That lags a little bit and the apps that come on some of the other smart TVs lag with football. I can easily change from one thing to the other with this device. I don’t know how or why but it does and I’m not complaining!! It was so easy to set up. Beyond easy to set up actually. I just plugged it in and it recognized everything and told me to press one button and boom, done. I can use it on any TV in the house. My Samsung, my Sony it doesn’t matter. The TV in my living room has way more technology, but this Roku device made my regular Amazon insignia fire TV better than my super expensive TV in the living room. When my living room TV is glitching trying to watch football I come into my bedroom and I watch football on my Roku because it doesn’t lag like all the other different apps do on those other TVs I am blown away at that fact and it’s weird, but I have a better quality picture now and I don’t know why, but I’m happy about it! I probably should get one for my main TV now that I’m thinking about this. Read more
I got two of these because they were selling for half the price of other Roku sticks. We already own a 4k Roku stick, and on our kids' non-4k TVs, there is absolutely no difference in quality. SO if you don't have 4k tv's just get this one. We have not tested the difference on our tv that is 4k, so I'm not sure how they would compare. Setting the Rokus streaming stick up Is EASY. Much easier and more direct than the firestick. i love that we can personalize themes and sounds. It connected quickly to our WIFI, which was a relief because some device have trouble with our cement walls. The remote buttons are simple and straightforward, so even our youngest child and our oldest family members were able to use all of the functions without assistance. The batteries seem to last for a while. We havent had to replace them yet. It comes with a variety of free streaming apps and even some games. again, that was much easier for the preschooler to use than firestick. Read more
Great product when traveling. Can access all content that I do at home, at hotels and condos. With the USB power supply cable, can connect directly to the TV - easy set up. Also, the Roku can control the volume and power for the TV. Finally, the Roku has the capability to enter the userid/password for a WiFi connection using a smartphone. Quick, functional, and easy.

Bought one for my family room and easily slid into my tv and was able to enjoy Roku content! So happy that I bought another stick for my teen daughter’s room at Christmas time as well as bought a Roku tv for myself! Love the streaming and the variety of shows!!! Easily synced to my daughters Toshiba and another generic tv - perfect all the way!!! On a side usb, you may encounter some pull ( it has a little weight) but I put some masking tape as a type of holster to hold it up and it’s held up well. Images are vibrant and the ability to set it up was super easy! Read more
Works great, finally cut the cord with the cable company and saving money! So far a great experience with the Roku stick as we are using on a little order TV. Simple set up and and use, would recommend for anyone looking to get away from the high cost of cable TV. Read more

This streaming stick is very easy to set up and use. It connects quickly to the TV and the interface is simple and fast. I like that it gives access to many streaming apps in one place. The picture quality is clear and the remote is easy to use. Great option if you want to turn a regular TV into a smart TV. Read more
I honestly wasn’t ready to give up on my older smart TV just because the “smart” features had stopped working—but the Roku HD Streaming Stick completely saved it. It worked like a charm right out of the box and basically gave my TV a second life. The setup was incredibly easy, especially since I already had a Roku account. I just plugged it in, connected to Wi-Fi, logged in, and everything synced automatically—apps, preferences, the works. Within minutes I was streaming again with zero frustration. If you have an older smart TV (or not so ‘smart’ that still has a great picture but the built-in apps are outdated or no longer supported, this is such a simple and affordable fix. Highly recommend!
