Our take on the Roku Express HD Streaming Media Player 2019

The Roku Express is Roku's entry-level streaming box, a small black puck that plugs into an HDMI port and runs the same Roku OS as the company's pricier players. It streams in 1080p HD only, with no 4K, no HDR and no Dolby Vision, so it suits older or secondary 1080p TVs rather than a main 4K set. Reviewers consistently call setup quick and the interface simple, and the 4.6-star average across nearly 10,000 ratings reflects that. Against rivals, the Amazon Fire TV Stick and Chromecast with Google TV add voice remotes and higher resolution for more money, while the Express wins on simplicity and a remote with dedicated buttons for popular apps.

What reviewers say

  • 4.6 / 59,807 ratings

  • InterfacePraisedReviewers find the Roku home screen straightforward, especially for people new to streaming.

Questions and answers

Is the Roku Express worth it over a Fire TV Stick?
If you want the simplest interface and a cheap way to smarten a 1080p TV, yes. The Fire TV Stick adds voice control and, on some models, 4K, but its interface pushes Amazon content harder.
Does the Roku Express support 4K?
No. It outputs up to 1080p HD and does not support HDR. For 4K, look at the Roku Streaming Stick 4K or the Express 4K+.
What do I need to set it up?
A TV with a free HDMI port, a Wi-Fi network and a free USB port or power outlet for the included cable. You also need a Roku account, which is free.
Does the remote have voice search?
No. The included remote is button-only. Voice search is available through the free Roku mobile app on your phone.
Can I use it with an older TV that has no HDMI?
Not directly. It needs an HDMI input, so a TV with only composite inputs would require an HDMI-to-composite adapter.
What is in the box?
The player, a remote with batteries, an HDMI extender cable, a USB power cable and a power adapter.
