The editors liked
Roku beat Google TV without even trying. The new interface makes the prospect of navigating hundreds of channels—thousands and thousands of shows and movies—a non-nightmare. It makes streaming music on Spotify or Pandora a cinch
Without horrendous Androi
The editors didn't like
Most of Roku's 700+ channels
Just like most apps
Most art
And most people who raise their hands to comment in class
Are terrible. Obscure junk that nobody really needs or wants. But while Roku's gone for volume over quality

Abstract: Roku probably didn't need to redesign the Roku 3 to stay on top of the market, but I'm glad it did. I do wish Roku's marketing team had given the new box a new name , so as not to confuse consumers, but what do I know about marketing. If you're shopping f...

If you're an Apple fan, have an existing iTunes library, and use iOS devices, then it's going to be hard to avoid the lure of the Apple 4K TV. Its integration with the Apple universe is a big factor, and one that would make sense to a lot of people. The u...
The Roku 3 is a premium player with a superior feature set to rivals. The headphones socket in the remote is a boon and the UK content selection is superb, although we experienced lip-sync issues and network media playback is too unreliable.Tags:Smart Hom...
Roku is the exception among its primary competitors – Amazon Fire TV andNexus Player – in that it is not subtly selling its own content platform. It's in Apple's interest for your to buy content on iTunes, just as it's in Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Son...
450 channels means you'll never hurt for content. Remote doubles as game controller. Improved UI
HDMI cable is not included. Needs to support more file formats. Though the remote offers a ton of features, it looks cheap
If you're a PC user, the Roku 3 is the best set top streaming box you can buy. However, if you're a Mac user, I would still say you should opt for the Apple TV over the Roku 3. The Apple TV is too tightly integrated into the OS X and iOS ecosystem to ma...

Speedy interface, Simple to use, Good content selection, Funky design, Voice search

Can only mirror your screen from Android and Windows devices, not iOS devices, It lacks a voice search option, Doesn't come with an HDMI cable to connect it to your TV
In our eyes this is the best performing TV streamer on the market right now. It gives you access to a huge choice of online TV, movie and video services in an easy-to-use package. You get everything from the big names like Netflix and BBC iPlayer to dedic...
