    Really easy to setup and use. Love the included tape to mount it to something. Got mine mounted to the side of my mantle. Remote is simple to use and it is easy to add all your accounts and channels. Video quality is superior. Love the compact size, makes it easy to put anywhere without taking up too much space. Love the wide variety of channels and content. Something for everyone. Highly recommend.

    This Roku device is really good and I really like them but there's a downside for but I'm going to save it for last. The first thing I like to point out is that it has Dolby Atmos and DTS audio supported to those who have a sound bar and two satellite speakers and one sub hooked up to a TV, I took my audio settings and they work on 5.1 surround sound systems straight out of the Box if you have a soundbar connected to it. So once you click on a home screen before you go to the app section, there's no ads. It's a simple to set up and it uses just my phone just to sign in to my roku account, getting out of apps downloaded for example YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon prime video and so on and so on. Once when I got the Roku from the mail, the box is very simple when I open it, very good unboxing experience, it's not hard to take things out. The battery installation for the controller a super easy and simple, the plus sign in both sides of the battery enclosure is in the same side even though the minus are doing the same side too. That's what other brand should do on the TV market, Soundbar market, and streaming devices market such as a fire stick from Amazon or a Mi Box S from Xiaomi. Now here are the cons: First off let's take a look of the app support, one of everybody else's favorite video game live streaming app called twitch.tv is not supported even though it used to be beck then. Next once you are about to select an app on your home screen, there is an ad in the right of the screen which is not a big deal to me but it is for some people, No Google Assistant supported even though it is supported on google home as you can still control your vocal with an external Google Assistant speaker in my case it is the first generation of Google home mini. There is no way you can put your own Google photos or Amazon photos to the screensaver even though that Chromecast does let you. When you hit play on any video, movies, and casting music from the phone to the TV via Spotify, there is a delay and cut the first two seconds of the audio. But I don't know if it's a soundbar thing or Roku's on software. It may be different if you don't have a soundbar that case it is. Overall, is a really good experience, it looked very good and plays nicely with my soundbar. I really like this because it's a simple, the most odd for streaming box I could find for cheap without having to go to the Apple TV route even though I have an Android phone.

    I bought 2 of these Roku Premiere boxes for my dad, so he could ditch cable and start saving a ton monthly. Easy to setup and use, he is now streaming tv like a pro, at half the price of cable tv with no extra monthly equipment charges. My dad is 72 and has now problem navigating through the Roku's menu and apps for streaming.

    Both my husband and myself are very pleased with the Roku that was installed by the Geek Squad. They installed and explained how to run Roku to our satisfaction. The remote is easy to use and made easier with just a few key strokes needed to find what you want and the Home button always brings you back to the beginning. The arrow keys are self explanatory in pointing you where to go for which program you want.

    Absolutely Love this thing! Soooo much better than my Google Chrome. My husband and I have both downloaded the remote onto our phones- WHAT A TREAT-!! That enables us to use voice commands and see the controls in the dark. It also allows us to scroll through all Roku has to offer on our mobile devices. We can also add on channels we already watch. We’re addicted.

    I used $25 in points, making this cost me $14. It has everything ya need and then some. Cut that cable out of your life and you'll never look back! My cable bill went from $135 to $49 (internet only). I have Spectrum which has a base speed of 100 mb/s speed. I'll never look back! Oh and that Curbside Pickup from BestBuy N Canton is pretty nice!

    The remote is not as good as the "stick" version. While it's lighter, there's no power button or volume buttons. It's 2020 and they force us to use 2 remotes, not ok.

    Solid equipment..,much better than any of the lower models. I have 4 of these running my sports bar. I like AppleTVs, but they’re too expensive to have one all of my TVs. Prefer the Roku Premiers over the Amazon Firestick

    Great product! I instantly saved money on my cable bill. The Roku Premier does what I need, but I wish it would control volume. I need to use a separate remote for that.

    This was purchased to stream Spectrum via the many apps available. So far all is great. It even offers Fandango for current theatre movie choices. I’d recommend this to save monthly on renting a cable box via your provider.
