Roku has yet<\/span> to disappoint me. Where other brands change form factors, interfaces, and product support with what can feel like alarming regularity even for insiders like me, Roku, with its rounded square interface, pleasantly rubbery remote controller, and joyously simple plug-and-play stick design, has held the course<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When the new Roku Streaming Stick Plus arrived at my house, it felt like it was 2012 all over again. That Obama-era techno-optimism\u2014remember when social media was on the right side of history?\u2014is still evident. There are no huge annoying ads atop everything in the menus, there’s no nagging to like or subscribe to some proprietary data funnel or other. Instead, you just get a decent processor, a USB cable for power, and a remote that now features four quick buttons for apps you might actually subscribe to\u2014how SlingTV ever got a dedicated spot on a Roku remote I’ll never know.<\/p>\n

Quality-wise, this 4K streaming device<\/a> offers everything you could realistically need without buying a disc player and starting a 4K Blu-Ray collection. If you have $40 to spare and a sluggish TV, just buy one already.<\/p>\n

Sticking Out<\/h2>\n
