    I have got 3 Roku devices in the house now and am very impressed with them. My favourite is the Streambar, def worth a consideration. Especially if your telly needs better sound.

    Mate, why can't all youtubers speak as clearly and to the point as this gentleman here does....? Seriously. All that pompous grated English when you can just say what you have to say.
    This is the second device I've bought thanks to your reviews, Tech Spurt. Cheers!

    I'm literally still using a roof top antenna that came with my house I bought 23 yrs ago, lol. And it's probably been on the house for over 30 years. I get the bigger channels and locals and they come in clear as cable. But Roku sounds enticing as my aunt bought herself one.

    This is one awesome product, I got mine over the weekend and was able to watch the Brazilian
    Gran prix with no problem on the big screen. I should have bought one sooner but this new model
    is better than the previous one, so I definitely can’t complain lol. System responds so smoothly
    and the Wi-Fi connect is instantaneous. Solved all the outdated problems you might have with
    a tv that is already 5 years or older.

    Can you watch freeview tv on it, dont mind going into an app for now tv but want a normal tv guide for easy freeview viewing as well. But everything I look at seems to make you go into an app for every single channel which gets a bit confusing for my non tech savvy partner. Ideally wanted a freeview recorder with Now tv app but doesnt look like it exsists sadly. Spent a week now trying to find a free (ish) alternative for my virgin TV.

Would getting one of these Roku Express devices help with this..?. NOW TV seem to have lost the plot with the adverts in the last year or so..

Also side load apps galore. 👍😎 To note the 4K firecube scaling is nothing short out bloody outstanding with Dolby Vision content from Disney + and Netflix.. Also all HDR10 content is rendered stunningly.
