I have 2 Roku Express 6th Generation units. We love them!

I have 2 of these model. Well, actually, I've purchase 3 - One for myself, one for my Niece and one for some good friends of mine. They're fast, they're extremely cheap, and they make an Apple TV unit show just how overpriced and willing Apple is to take money from anyone (the cheapest Apple TV is approximately 5x more than the Roku Express, and the 4K Apple is almost 7x more).

Apple Vs Roku - Roku let's you use Apple services via the YouTube app by selecting the "Purchases" section of YouTube to stream iTunes content. Roku also has "Movies Anywhere", which allows you to link your iTunes account and watch your Apple content on their app, as well. With Movies Anywhere you can also connect VUDU, which after link your Apple account, spreads the Apple titles into VUDU. You can do the same with apps like FandangoNow and also can link your Microsoft account (if for example you have purchased any movies on your Xbox or PC and want to link everything from every streaming service onto one App). Price gouging is a vast understatement with Apple when comparing to Roku. You can alsp control any Roku in your home via WiFi by simply downloading the free Roku app to your phone or tablet. If you want 4K, there are Roku models that are 1/2 the cost of Apple's entry HD unit. The pricier Roku allows you to plug headphones into the Roku remote for private listening. There is probably some very good YouTube reviews of "Roku vs Apple TV". The point is, don't give Apple your money when you don't need nor have to. They're charging you a lot more, simply because they're charging you a lot more... You can't go wrong with a Roku. Pick the model that is best for you, be it the Roku stick, which allows a completely hidden version with a wireless remote, or if you need high speed 4K streaming - there is a model for that, too. The more you throw your money at Apple, the more they will take. Do your research amd comparisons on streaming devices.

For speed, price and app accessibility, I give the Roku a 10 out of 10. It does not stream 4K, but for just under 30 bucks...it's fantastic, and as far as I know, you would only limit your apps if you bought an Apple unit that costs 5x more. Even the Roku Stick (a different model) allows voice features. The only downside the the Roku Express is if you have a 4K TV and need to stream 4K content. I highly recommend any Roku model.

Streaming

So in order to watch Netflix, need to umplug and plug back in each usage. Hulu streams every 25-60 seconds and starts retrieving the broadcast. Not very satisfied with this product. This being said, my son also has a Roku in his room and has no issues with it, purchased at a local retailer. We use the same internet access so that is not an issue.Read full review

Roku is my favorite.

This is the 2nd time I have purchased a Roku. I have one and I also have a Fire Stick. I purchased the Roku because I personally do not like the Fire Stick, it is not easy to work to get to the channels that you want. I would recommend the Roku to any one.Read full review

Low cost, easy way to access multiple streaming sources via the Internet and to "cut the cord" from your cable company.

I bought the Roku Express for a second TV; I had a Roku Ultimate for the main TV already. I tried out Roku on the main TV for viewing streaming content and determined that it,coupled with a SlingTV account and an antenna for OTA channels, met all of my viewing needs. Now that I have Roku capability on both of my home TVs, I will be "cutting the cord" and returning my cable boxes and remotes. Adding this second Roku device to my account was easy; the screen prompts step you through the installation and configuration. In addition, I can take the Roku Express components with me when traveling and use it in hotels with Wi-Fi as long as the TV in the hotel room has an available HMDI port (and most HDTVs these days have at least one or more HDMI port).This is a terrific product and much improved from the older Roku box that a friend of mine still uses.Read full review

LOVE Ruko!

I love this product!! Setting it up and adding channels is SO easy! The only thing I don’t like is that if you have more than one Roku device at home and add a channel you can’t choose to which Roku you want to add it to. It just adds it to both. Other than that, I love this device better than any other device in the market. I completely recommend this product!Read full review
