I had my Roku Ultra for the past 3 years and still woks flawlessly. I found a Roku soundbar dumped on the street months ago, took it home and it works. My daughter uses it in her bedroom and the sound is powerful. Found another Roku, the 4K+ stick from a neighbors recycling stash yesterday and took it home and connected it, still works. Got 2 free Roku players in a year!

The Remote *EATS* Batteries
The actual streaming stick itself is great. A lot of apps are broadcasting in 4K, especially YouTube videos. This stick is easy to install, just plug in to an existing HDMI port on your TV and connect the stick's USB power port to your TV's USB port (if it has one, mine does) with the supplied USB cable and there you go. However, this is why I gave this stick only 2 stars. The remote *LOVES* batteries!!! I bought this back in May 2025 and so far I've had to replace the batteries in the remove FOUR TIMES!! It's on the fourth set right now. And I don't even use the voice feature to open any apps. In fact I have that disabled. And it *STILL* eats batteries. I have three Roku Express devices (Master Bedroom, Office and Hobby Room) and those remotes don't even come close to eating batteries like this remote does. Heck I don't even remember the last time I changed those batteries. Unless Roku does something to improve the battery life in the Streaming Stick 4K's remove, I really cannot in good conscious recommend this to anyone.

Hasn't worked for me
Purchased over the summer. Worked well at first. Then it started to freeze up or wouldn't connect to the internet. I contacted Roku. They tried multiple things. Didn't work. Said it was an issue with the programming. Sent me a replacement. It's not working either.

Hi there! Thanks for the feedback, and we're here to help. For YouTube, you may be able to sign into the YouTube channel using a YouTube Premium subscription to limit or eliminate ads during playback, but you would need YouTube to confirm whether or not that functionality is supported. You can reach out to their support team here: https://support.google.com/youtube/?hl=en#topic=9257498. We hope this is helpful. Happy Streaming! Roku Customer Advocate

Hi there, thanks for sharing your input! We're here to help. We advise you to try plugging the device into the wall outlet if you have plugged it into the TV. Also, try using another power cable for the device. If this results in the same, we recommend getting the HDMI extender at this link: https://my.roku.com/hdmi. Need help?
