Our take on the Roku TV Remote Control

This is Roku's own replacement remote for Roku TVs, not for Roku streaming players. It handles the basics: power, volume, mute and channel controls, plus four pre-set app shortcut buttons. Setup is immediate, since batteries are included and a pull tab activates it. It is the simplest and most reliable option for someone who lost or damaged the remote that came with a Roku TV, though it lacks the voice control, headphone jack and hands-free features of Roku's Voice Remote and Voice Remote Pro.
