Roku Streaming Stick 2025 - HD Roku Streaming Device for TV with Voice Remote - Free & Live TV

I had a few friends and family who have been using Roku for a few years and had been trying to convert me for a while. I have been in the Amazon ecosystem for a long time and was very hesitant to abandon my Fire Stick... however, I was noticing that I had to replace my Fire Sticks about every 1-2 years because they would slow down and get very glitchy. Even with updates and full factory resets, nothing would bring them back to functioning like new. When it came time to replace my third Fire Stick within a 4-year span, I decided to make the jump to Roku.All I can say is, I SHOULD HAVE SWITCHED SOONER! Upon setting up the Roku Stick, I started falling in love with it almost immediately. It was quick, responsive, easy to use... and it just "worked." All of the apps that I am used to were easy to locate and download, plus I was excited to see the amount of no-charge content available to supplement my streaming apps, such as the Roku Live TV Channel.Best of all, I have had this streaming stick for months now and I see no slow-down or degradation of performance like I used to experience with the Fire Stick. This thing feels just as snappy as the day I started using it, and as corny as it sounds, using my Roku makes me look forward to turning on my TV when I am relaxing at night. As a side note, I have found that the Roku is also great for my AIrbnb because it features a "Guest Mode" so that I can allow guests to log in to their own accounts, while my own "main" profile remains protected and ready for me to switch back to once guests leave. I also love that when guests log out, it automatically wipes all of their personal log in and downloads of any apps that they used. What a smart feature.All of this to say, I am so glad that I made the switch to Roku. I hope that they maintain this level of quality and keep innovating, because this is the kind of rare product that is a joy to use and truly enhances my entertainment experience.

Spectrum every like 6 months raise their prices and my dad at some point said, enough with this so he started looking into lowering the price. We called them directly and they worked with the price, but when my dad started paying attention to the bill, he noticed a fee for the DVR box, which he was not told at any other time he has called before, so he called and he requested information about the DVR box, fee, and how to remove it from the bill. He found the answer from the rep "remove the DVR box, get yourself ROKU, set it up with your Spectrum account and that's all, you'll save every month because the DVR fee will be removed". I believe my dad told me it was like $28 a month. Anyway, he not only purchased 1, he end up getting another one for a different room where he had another DVR so you can understand the DVR fee DROPPED drastically. I do recommend the Roku Streaming Stick 4K. We needed the adapter so we emailed ROKU with the serial number for each box we own and they sent us the adapter for FREE. Read the instructions to find out what needs to be done to order the adapters for free! Since my family wanted to watch Telemundo, then ROKU worked, because my dad has a cable subscription with SPECTRUM, but if you don't have a cable subscription, you still can watch FREE TV using The Roku Channel, Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex, and Freevee. Also, you can use ROKU to stream apps like Netflix, HULU, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+ and more when you have a paid subscription!

On the day before my departure, I received the Roku stick I ordered the night before. I tossed it in the suitcase and departed on a road trip from my home near Puget Sound to Long Beach, California and back. The setup and use was easy and the instructions were simple, well thought out, and well composed. The sound and picture were the best one could expect. Performance far exceeded the slim pickings on the hotel TVs. All isn't perfect, but maybe it's not Roku's fault. Somebody "improved" the YouTube app so it can no longer play the subscribed videos in most-recent-first order, which was for me the best way to watch the news, but Roku appears to have changed the same time other vendors changed, indicating some malevolent god somewhere sabotaging YouTube apps on Roku and all TVs simultaneously. Also, the HDMI connector design seems more difficult to use than any other, a trait that affects all HDMI everywhere, not just Roku. But if Roku could modify their male HDMI to slide easily into any female HDMI connector, that would improve the product. Well worth the money for me.

I am looking to get rid on my expensive cable provider, there was one channel I watch that didn't have an app that I could watch it on. I did some research an found out I could watch it on the Roku Streaming Stick 4K - HDR & Dolby Vision Roku Streaming Device for TV with Voice Remote & Long-Range Wi-Fi. I purchased it, a few days later it was delivered and my son who is much more tech savvy than I am installed it on my TV. I found the channel I wanted on the Roku streaming device and am very happy, I can now cancel my cable provider. I am completely satisfied with this purchase and will purchase 2 more for my other TV's.
