Roku Canada: Roku Streaming Stick+ available in May

The Roku Streaming Stick+ is the best streaming stick we have ever made and it’s coming to Canada starting in May! It’s packed with power and is capable of streaming HD, 4K and 4K HDR.

For those who are on the move or want their streaming player hidden behind their TV, this is the streaming player for you. The Roku Streaming Stick+ features a quad-core processor and delivers exceptional wireless performance with its advanced wireless receiver that is innovatively built into the power cord. This innovation offers up to four times the wireless range to minimize buffering. It comes with a remote control that includes TV power and volume buttons that can control compatible TV models, eliminating the need to use a TV remote for these functions. It also includes voice search on the remote for consumers to quickly discover new entertainment to watch.

As with other Roku streaming devices, the Roku Streaming Stick+ features a simple home screen with access to 5,000+ streaming channels, including 150,000 movies and TV episodes in Canada. It also works with the free Roku mobile app, available for iOS® and Android™, which acts as a remote, plays personal video, music or photos from a mobile device on the TV, includes a keyboard and offers features like voice search and private listening. Roku OS 8.1 will soon enable private listening for up to four devices concurrently for Roku players and Roku TVs (expected to roll out in May).The Roku Streaming Stick+ is expected to be available from Walmart and other retailers starting in May for a suggested retail price of CAD 89,99.

Happy Streaming!
