Roku 3500R Streaming Stick Pros and Cons

Small Review: 

Compact stick design. Plugs discreetly right into the HDMI port. Great for wall-mounted TVs. 1,000+ entertainment channels and counting. By far the most movies, sports, news, music and kids' shows of any streaming player. Control with remote or mobile. You can choose to control your entertainment via your iOS or Android device. Or use the included remote that everybody can share. It's your choice.

Pro and Cons of Roku 3500R Streaming

Pros

  • The software and user interface is one of the best you will find on a streaming device.
  • Very good streaming quality.
  • Everything works great.
  • Small size.
  • Easy to connect to your device.
  • Dedicated media buttons on the remote control.
  • Extremely cheap for what it is capable of.

Cons

  • The default software has some issues, but they are fixed after you update it.
  • Clunky and long initial setup that may confuse some users.
  • The the link between the remote and the device lags, so the response is not instant
  • The device begins to be slow after some hours of use, and you will need to restart it.
  • If you lose the remote you're done with it. There are no way to get spear remotes or to use universal remotes with it.
