Roku Streaming Stick (2016) review

 

The $50 Roku Streaming Stick is a no-brainer, must-own device for the serious streamer.

Lightning quick ; Wireless audio through smart phones ; All the apps ; Doesn’t favor any one streaming service ; Best search around

No 4K support ; No HDMI extension

Roku’s new Streaming Stick delivers an outstanding experience. It’s the snappy click-and-go device we think everyone expects, but somehow packed into a little stick no larger than a small pack of gum. And, as previously mentioned, Roku’s platform...

Roku Streaming Stick 4K+ Review

 

The Roku Streaming Stick 4K+ bundles the company's Streaming Stick 4K and Voice Remote Pro into one compelling package for hands-free 4K media streaming.

Roku Streaming Stick 4K review: Small refinements to a winning formula

 

The newest Roku Stick is an impressive streamer, but the cheaper Express Plus 4K is a better buy.

Robust app and Dolby Vision support ; Simple interface ; Good search for TV and movies

Costs $10 more than the nearly identical Express 4K Plus ; No support for gaming services ; No smart home control ; Voice assistant remains limited

Roku Streaming Stick 4K Review

 

The Roku Streaming Stick 4K is a powerful media streamer for watching 4K HDR content from many streaming apps, and AirPlay support lets you easily mirror Apple devices.

Roku Streaming Stick 2017 review

 

These days just about every TV above 49 inches or $300 has 4K resolution and probably high dynamic range too, so if you're buying a streaming device for a newer TV, chances are you want one that does that stuff. My favorite this year is the $70 Roku...

The Roku Streaming Stick streams Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and the rest in an ultra-compact design for an affordable price. Its remote can control your TV's volume and power. Responses are lightning-fast. The simple menus put every streaming service on a...

The menus can seem dated compared to rivals, and some apps use old-school layouts. Voice search and control is worse than Fire TV.

For buyers who don't care about 4K or HDR streaming, the Roku Streaming Stick is the best player on the market.

Roku Streaming Stick review: All the streamer you need

 

The new Roku Streaming Stick is a pocket-size device that costs $50 and delivers Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBO and all the rest, along with lightning-fast performance and the best search in the biz. 'Nuff said.

The $50 Roku Streaming Stick is one of the least expensive devices to stream video from Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBO, Sling TV and other online services. It's just as responsive as other devices -- meaning it's lightning-fast -- and an updated app lets...

No Ethernet port means it only works via Wi-Fi, not a wired connection. Some app interfaces are less polished than on rival devices. Private listening feature loses lip-sync with some Bluetooth headphones.

The new Roku Streaming Stick is the best value in streaming-video hardware, period.

Superior streaming stick for $50

 

Roku's Streaming Stick offers a wide variety of apps, a real remote, and a compact design all for just $50, making it the best streaming stick at an outstanding value.

The Roku Streaming Stick packs the entire Roku experience into a compact device that lives behind your TV and costs just $50. Over 1,200 apps are available, including Netflix, Amazon Instant, HBO Go, Hulu Plus, Pandora, MLB.TV, Amazon Cloud Player,...

Some apps, like YouTube, take a long time to boot up. The included remote doesn't have the neat headphone jack feature that's available on the Roku 3 and Roku 2. And if you used your TV's USB port for power, the device will likely need to boot-up when...

Roku's Streaming Stick offers tons of apps, a real remote, and a compact design for just $50, making it the best streaming stick and an outstanding value.

Roku Streaming Stick review: TV everywhere

 

It happens every time I travel. I come back to my hotel room, flop into a freshly made bed, pick up the (probably sticky) black remote, and turn on the TV. I'm given the option to mortgage my home...

Unrivaled content selection ; Nice, simple interface ; Handy universal search

Somewhere between slow and very slow ; Setup could be faster ; Requires external power
