Roku 1

 

The Roku 1 might not sound new - the numerical character in the name is usually a dead giveaway - but it forms part of the smart TV platform company's revamped line up of low price streaming boxes. Gone are the confusing array of purple Roku 2 boxes...

Don’t cry if someone gives you a Roku 1 out of the kindness of their heart. This little black box is a brilliant media streamer with so many channels, and will put almost any smart TV service to shame for very little. But you’d be mad not to pay a...

The new Roku Streaming Stick offers all the same functionality in an even smaller, more portable form factor. No dual-band wireless, which is available on every other Roku streaming box. And the official YouTube channel isn't scheduled to hit the Roku...

The Roku 1 offers the same excellent experience that's found on other Roku boxes at a new low price, but there aren't many reasons to choose it over the new Streaming Stick or step-up Roku boxes.

Roku 1 review

 

The Roku 1 has always been a curious box in Roku's lineup. When it launched, it wasn't quite as cheap as the (soon-to-be-discontinued) Roku LT , and it's also lacking a standout step-up feature, like the headphone jack remote found on the Roku 2 ($80)....

Picture quality superb,no buffering ever,and switchingprogrammes excellent.

A bit fiddly navigating setup panel with remote, but once done works brilliantly every time accessed. Needs a top wireless signal but I suppose that's a given.
