Possibly defective but definitely disappointing

Installation was pretty easy. But despite the presence of an account and an additional USB stick, none of the subscriptions were recognized and it had to be configured again. But what's even more frustrating is that it "overheats" or "not getting enough power" after 20 minutes. Voice control doesn't work at all. And the remote is disconnected and doesn't work to connect to the home screen. Possibly defective but overall disappointing as we have had no issues with our old Walmart flash drive.

Pros
  • Not only useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Has flaws

Works HOT! Wouldn't buy!

I used to have Roku but this is my first version of the "stick". Shortly after use it started to get very hot. Then I got an HDMI extender which was free. I added that and of course it's not a problem. Roku isn't in a closet, next to hot TV items or anything like that. It just gets warm sometimes and I think it's defective. I would not recommend this model to anyone. I am trying to speak to someone at Roku to see if they will refund my purchase. I read that the problem is that there is too much

Pros
  • Roku streaming player gives you portable access to streaming services and 3000 other channels
Cons
  • Not trendy

To update. Still disappointing but so disappointed don't buy this!

I would give zero stars but that's not an option. I bought this series (gen 6) 3800 to be able to watch appletv+, i already have 4 roku sticks, i needed this latest gen to add appletv+ to my line. If I hadn't thrown away the packaging I would have sent it back. I've had Roku at home for about 7 years now, this has never happened to me with any of my Roku products: I took a new USB stick, plugged it into my Samsung TV and started watching a movie. After about 45 minutes I get a flash drive…

Pros
  • Comes with a voice remote for easy channel navigation
Cons
  • Big and chunky

In contrast, I support excellent customer service as a focal point

3 and 4 stars then 2 total? Yes, very easy to install and use (5 stars). However, performance and durability are an issue. It keeps buffering, literally every 2-4 sentences in my show/movie, and then says the title doesn't work. Forget the "Try again" option as this will never happen. Had to call customer service more times than I care to. After going through the process with them, I learned how to reset it, and now I often do it myself. The device says I'm not connected to Wi-Fi, but my phone…

Pros
  • Lightweight, portable design works with any compatible TV in your home
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
