About Roku Streaming Stick 4K 2021 Device HDR/D. Vision with Roku Voice Remote and TV Controls
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
70% appreciated the connectivity options, but 30% wished more
There are connectivity issues with the remote to my device.
I faced difficulty connecting the stick to my wireless network and found out from Roku and xfinity provider that I need a 2.4 and 5gh modem to use it.
I had no connectivity issues for days or weeks while streaming from my computer, but the moment I streamed from the Roku, my Wifi would disconnect/reconnect from all of my devices.
I have to plug it into an electrical outlet because most television USB ports don't have enough power to run it correctly.
65% liked the remote control, but 35% didn't
The Roku Streaming Stick 4K is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry around and pack in a carry-on bag or suitcase.
I was impressed that the Roku remote had control over the volume and power, so I returned the TV remote and kept only the Roku remote.
I returned a different Roku and bought this refurbished unit for the remote controls.
I found the remote control useless as it did not have a learn button.

This Roku Streaming Stick 4K is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry around and ideal for packing in a carry-on bag or suitcase.
I use Twitch almost every day and it's a huge bummer that there's no native Twitch app. However, the Streaming Stick 4K supports AirPlay, so I can easily mirror Twitch from my iPhone or iPad.
70% appreciated the video quality, though 30% experienced issues
I have experienced the immersive and cinematic visual experience while streaming movies, TV shows, or sports on the go with the Roku Streaming Stick 4K, which supports 4K HDR and Dolby Vision, delivering stunning picture quality with vibrant colors, sharp contrast, and enhanced detail.
The picture quality is not ideal and it does not show better than HD quality even though I have a 4K TV.
79% found the voice control convenient, but 21% faced issues
I have not tried the voice recognition feature yet.
I have noticed that the voice remote requires frequent resetting by removing the batteries to work properly.
I am having trouble configuring my Roku with my sound bar even though I replaced my TV speakers with a high quality sound bar.
The streaming media player stops in the middle of watching video and tells me to go to on demand to continue watching.
