    Great video! I personally would get the Roku stick. For the price it has all I need.

      I got a 37″ 1080 tv (Spec-something brand) off Craigslist for $30 and a $25 Roku express from Amazon last week. I love the cheap upgrade from Sony trinitron CRT.

    You mentioned that a Roku remote will work with any Roku box. Is the same true for a Roku-based TV?

      My sharp Roku TV remote does not work with my Roku express. Not sure if the opposite is true, I’ve never tried that.

    I’ve had the streaming stick plus for two years and I don’t regret it! You can also get the Apple TV app to get your iTunes content.

    I like the Ultra. It is the best for Hulu I find. Hooked up with an Ethernet cable. Wifi is not the best for streaming in my house. I tried the stick. It was a major issue in my house.

    i wish Roku offered freeview, you can only get it with a aerial… i want to turn on the Roku and live stream tv channels, not click on individual apps to access a channel.

      SugarGliderDude Thats why you get a Roku and Hulu Live. It’s just like watching cable TV, except better. Plus the Roku has a Hulu button so it’s a single press to launch.

    The sad card slot is storage, not memory. It doesn’t speed up anything. It just offers more storage for apps and or media.

    Aren’t all the Roku remote wireless? LOL I think what you meant is that the one on the streaming stick is IP rather than IR so it does not require direct line of sight.

    I JUST buy ULTRA BOX ONLY & i bought 2 of the 2019 model Utra boxs & Lovin it like usual!

    Very tempting. After much research, found out none of these Roku come with any internet browser. This is a deal breaker for me!

    Expandable storage, not memory.

    I have a TCL 4K Roku TV. I have been using Rokus for 8-9 years, and nothing like have it built-in to your TV.

There’s still a lot of rumor, speculation, and alleged leaks around the possibility of Apple releasing a foldable phone, but who would this be for, anyway? One guess: it could be for people who miss the iPad Mini, if the apps can just work. #ipad #iphone #iphoneultra #iphonefold Add CNET as a trusted news source…
