The Roku 4 is a powerful device for streaming media, but is it better than the Roku 3? This video I discuss both models and explain why I think the Roku 3 is the most bang for the buck. The Roku 4 has a small number of improvements, but they come with the disadvantage of having a bigger hardware device. Some of the positives of the Roku 4:
- Remote finder!
- 4k UHD resolution support
- Voice search
So why is this not worth the $130 price tag? Well, the Roku 3 is $70-$80 and it offers everything but the 3 things mentioned above. The Roku 4 voice search is very limited, and doesn't pull up streaming channels that you want (Showtime, HBO, etc). The Apple TV has the Roku beat here, for the price point. The remote ping is great though, and the 4K support, although limited in channels, will be great in the future. The Roku 3 is just a tad slower, not noticeable to me, and has the advantage of the USB port and the headphone jack in the controller. Also, the device processes movies very fast when you fast forward a data file. The Roku was the solution I wanted for my video media needs, I simply plug an external HD loaded with movies into my Router, then I can use the "Roku Media Player" and find my movies via wifi and stream them in glorious 1080p format to my TV. I know my TV has the option to find the movies also, but it is clunky and freezes too much. I can now watch 100s of movies from my TV downstairs with the router upstairs and this was much better than mirroring from my laptop to my TV, which uses up an extra device.
Summary of my review, Roku 4 is great, but save yourself $50 unless you NEED 4K, and get the Roku 3.
