The Pros: the device is easy to setup, it operates quickly, and the voice search is useful because it shows results from various streaming apps. If I search for a movie and it is on Netflix, Hulu, and Google Play, it will show me all three results allowing me to choose the service which I am subscribed to. Easy remote control. Google Play access!
The Cons: Local media server streaming is terrible. It does not play most files from our DLNA server or Twonky server either. Various apps are useless, such as Facebook. The remote control can't control your TV volume, which means you will always need both remotes.
For $100 it's a good device if you do not already have a smart TV or a Playstation/XBox. I'm not one for Apple's proprietary BS, so it's this or a Chromebox.
I would recommend this to a friend!

 Samsung - Galaxy S7 4G LTE with 32GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Black Onyx
Samsung - Galaxy S7 4G LTE with 32GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Black Onyx
Connect with business associates with this Samsung Galaxy S7. The KNOX platform provides optimum mobile security, and the camera's advanced sensor helps it capture images in low-light conditions. This Samsung Galaxy S7 is compatible with Samsung Pay, so you can make mobile payments directly from the phone, and it has 32GB of storage for files, pictures and business ideas.
 

does this phone come with a sim card?

I also purchased the unlocked S7 and no, it does not come with a SIM card. It does not have any service provider features or apps previously installed. The SIM card is unique to each service provider and needs to be obtained through them.

Keep in mind, this phone uses a mini SIM card. They're very common now.

ROKU 3 vs. ROKU 2SX

What are the benefits of the NEW ROKU 3 over the ROKU 2XS version (mine is 2-3 years old)?
Per their website, here's the difference:
- Remote has headphones with jack
- Voice search (useful, but not worth switching your Roku 2)
- Point anywhere remote
- Motion control for games

If these features are enough for you to make the switch, go for it. Otherwise, everything else remains the same. Personally, I have the Roku 3......stick to your Roku 2.
