Roku Streaming Stick: Get a hub of entertainment in one convenient, compact device. Access more than 2,000 channels and cast from Netflix, YouTube and personal media directly from your smartphone or tablet to your TV.
I bought the roku streaming stick about 3 weeks ago, for what it is, it's really not that bad. I have read lots of negative reviews on it, but thought I should try it for myself. Glad I did. Set up was easy, sound quality from the device is great so is the picture quality. I like that it's small and hides behind the TV no wires anywhere. I was hesitated about using my internet on the device due to I am using Clear™ Voyager Internet, a small wireless box. It connects with it very well, no buffering issues. The only issue I have with the streaming stick that it takes forever to load when I first turn on the tv, it's a good 3 minute wait for it to load. Also the remote has a bit of a lag time on it, but it works great for what it is, I am defiantly keeping mine. It's the most affordable way to turn a normal tv to a smart tv. My adivce to anyone, don't base your purchase off someone else's reviews, go to the store get one and try it yourself. This is device is so much better compare Chrome™ Streaming stick. Now that's a waste of time lol.

does the device needs to be charged or is it battery powered
Needs to be charged, the device comes with usb charging cord for the wall or if you have a USB port on the back of your tv it will charge from there
