  • Abstract:  Aside from Its $30 price tag, the Roku Express feels like a streaming box from a bygone era. It's reminiscent of a time when we didn't demand much from our media streamers beyond a simple way to access Netflix or Hulu; when we were more willing to tolerat...

  • Abstract:  All Images: Christina Warren/GizmodoWhen the very first Roku launched in 2008, the bulky box had a clunky interface that only played Netflix. How far we've come. That initial idea ended up spawning an entire genre of streaming devices and set-top boxes t...

  • El Roku Expresstiene una salida analógica de audio y video, lo que te permite conectarlo a un viejo televisor. Es barato, fácil de usar y viene equipado con apps de 'streaming' incluyendo la versión más reciente de Netflix.
  • Es más lento, especialmente usando Netflix, que otros dispositivos que sólo tienen salida HDMI y que sólo cuestan unos cuantos dólares más
  • Con su precio asequible, su capacidad de video analógico y su acceso a la mejor variedad de contenido de la plataforma Roku, el Express+ es una opción segura para quien desee hacer 'streaming' de video en un viejo TV...

  • El Roku Express es barato, fácil de usar y viene con muchos apps.
  • Es lento, especialmente con Netflix, y la alternativa cuesta unos pocos dólares más solamente
  • El Roku Express tiene todo lo que ofrece Roku a precio de remate, pero vale la pena gastar un poco más por un aparato más rápido...

  • Très compact, Interface simpliste mais rapide
  • Marché d'applications très peu fourni pour la France, Pas d'application pour regarder les chaînes TV, Boîtier trop léger qui n'est pas très stable lorsque posé
  • Pour la France, Roku a choisi de mettre en avant son petit prix pour s'imposer face aux Apple TV 4K et autre Nvidia Shield TV qui ne concourent vraiment pas dans la même catégorie, que ce soit en termes de prix ou de fonctionnalités. Difficile néanmoins d...

  • хорошая эргономика, приличная громкость звука, яркое световое сопровождение
  • приглушённая АЧХ, устройство мобильно лишь с экзотическими батарейками
  • ION Party Rocker Express пригодится для создания атмосферы праздника и позитива, стоит лишь включить световые эффекты и сказать пару шутливых фраз в микрофон. Без кучи проводов и ящиков с оборудованием, в небольшом симпатичном корпусе — герой домашней веч...

  • O media center da Roku chegou ao mercado brasileiro como alternativa a opções mais conhecidas e, em alguns casos, até mais completas - caso do Fire TV Stick Lite. Apesar disso, com preço baixo e proposta simples, o modelo entrega tudo que promete com bom...
