I've always enjoyed the Roku products. I purchased this one to replace the Roku 2, which was constantly overheating because it didn't have a cooling-fan. When it overheated, it would be hot to the touch and would prevent the movie titles from loading and cause latency. I was pleased with how easy the Roku 4 was to set up, activate, and use. I love the easy-to-navigate user interface, features (voice search, remote finder, private listening via remote, private listening via mobile device), and overall quality! The cooling-fan is somewhat loud and tends to run constantly (even when not being used), but it's significantly better than the Roku 2.

It has more features than the roku express. The JBL earphones perform much better than I expected. 2 things disappointed me. Roku advertises that the remote provides being able to turn tv off and on. You were able to turn it on with the express, just not off, so you needed to use the tv remote. With the addition of volume control, I thought I wouldn’t have to use the tv remote at all. Well, the volume control works well. This is my 2nd review. Now that I’ve had it for 6 weeks. Picture quality improvement upgrading from the Roku express is very good. Remote handling is very delicate. The JBL ear buds are excellent. Much, much better than I expected. Two major problems. The balance is off. More sound in the right channel, than the left. Can be very annoying. I don’t see any way to adjust it. I’m better off using the earbuds with the Roku app on my iPad. I can adjust the volume there. I’ve followed the instructions and can’t turn the tv off with the remote. I can turn it on, which I was able to with the express. I’ve have to use the tv remote to turn the tv off. BEWARE: Batteries need to be replaced every 7-14 days, depending on how much you use the headphones with the remote.Read full review

I like the unit, but my goal was to have Kodi installed and learned later that you need an Android based device to install. The Roku will mirror content from Kodi on other devices, but it didn't work in my environment using two sources, so picked up a Firestick and installed Kodi and working great. It is now installed in another room and does a great job for integrating my media server and apps such as TabloTV. Netflilx and Prime. If you don't plan on using Kodi or Android based apps, nice interface and works great.

I like the way Roku displays the programs on Netflix and Hulu Plus. The display outperforms the two WD steamer that I had. Unfortunately, the Roku 4 started making a very loud intermittent grinding sound about a week after I plugged it in. /The grinding noise is stilll intermittent! I did not keep the receipt (Who would expect a device as such would be defective a week later) and am now stuck with a noisy machine. I wrote Roku and interesting, I received a link for feed back on contacting Roku but never did receive a response about how to obtain warranty work. Very poor customer service Roku!!!
