Ideal for controlling TV power and audio from your TV or soundbar

We have a family of two TVs Roku and Roku (the latest version of this model is 3600R). The problem was that in the family room, the 3600R didn't control the TV's power and volume. I was about to order a Sideclick when I heard about this new model. Sidelick is $29 here at Revain, and the new Roku is $49. In addition, the remote side click added some awkwardness. I received it today and the installation was very quick. All I did was unplug the old Roku and use the same power adapter and cable…

Pros
  • Free Roku mobile app for private listening, voice search and more; TV Compatibility HDTVs Up to 1080p (1920 x 1080) Upscaling from 720p; The TV must have an HDMI input that supports HDCP 2.2
Cons
  • There is error

I didn't give this star because of Roku but because of the product you will receive. I had a Roku 3. I think Roku streaming devices are the best streaming devices out there. You get access to all streaming services and some cool features like voice search and remote controls with headphone jacks. I'm giving this product 2 stars because it has a known design flaw and Roku isn't tackling it with a new product, but with a band-aid. what they give you for free. If they hadn't given you a Band Aid…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Best Roku model for the money

I recently replaced my Roku 2 XD in my bedroom as the hardware just couldn't keep up with all the software updates. Of course it still worked, but hardly ever. In other words, it was a pain to keep using it. We don't subscribe to cable and instead use an outdoor OTA antenna along with streaming for our entertainment. Roku has been a great platform for our streaming content. When I was looking for a replacement for my second-gen Roku, I considered the new Roku Express. Instead, I decided to…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here

I've been using Roku for years including several different models. Best News - Roku recently released the Roku Channel which contains hundreds of free movies. It is supported by ads. And now Locast.org app gives you free local stations CBS, NBC, FOX, ABC, PBS. York, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Denver and plans to add many more cities. This means that many people no longer need antennas to view local networks for free. Roku has pretty much every app imaginable…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember
