The Roku Streaming Stick is a great value for a streaming device. It has the same user interface as other devices, and you can see what new shows and movies are available by opening each app separately. The only downside is that it’s not as powerful as some of the newer devices, but it’s still a great option for those who want to watch TV without having to worry about power cords.
The Roku Streaming Stick has a lot in common with the old Roku Streaming Stick. It’s about the size of a USB stick and plugs directly into your TV’s HDMI port. To power it, you’ll need to either plug it into a USB port on the TV or use the included power adapter to plug it into the wall outlet. You will notice that there is a solid plastic strip between the head and the end of the streaming stick – this is the long-range Wi-Fi antenna. However, there are some key differences. For one, Roku Streaming Stick comes with an internal storage space of up to 128GB. This means that you can save your favorite shows and movies right on your streaming stick without having to worry about them spilling over onto other devices. Additionally, Roku Streaming Stick also includes an remote control that looks very similar to the old Roku Remote.
Roku recommends keeping the antenna away from the TV’s HDMI ports and making sure it doesn’t get tangled with other cables. Otherwise, you may not get the maximum range from the antenna. Also included is a Roku voice remote with two AAA batteries.
The Roku Streaming Stick offers a slightly faster startup speed and slightly faster navigation. ..
