Now, this is new updated Roku Streaming Stick which came out in 2017, early October. It boasts some impressive upgrades over its previous iteration including an updated remote with voice control (something which was not present before) and a couple of extra buttons. Then there are two AA batteries, but you can replace them with rechargeable ones if you don’t like to keep buying new batteries. Also, the processor has been revamped to be 50% faster than before.

It is also super simple to set up with your TV. Simply plug in the device into your TV’s HDMI port, and you are good to go. The Roku stick gives you access to over five hundred thousand movies and TV shows and over five thousand streaming channels, so you will not be out of media content to stream.
