Roku's affordable 4K HDR streamer is a superb buy, but it's worth another $10 to get the superior Wi-Fi of the Streaming Stick Plus.

By cnet on November 05, 2018

Roku is our favorite streaming TV platform because it’s affordable and easier to use than all of its competitors. The Premiere Plus and Premiere aren’t perfect, but they also don’t change the math. Roku’s reign looks set to continue.

The Roku Premiere+ is a great value for 4K HDR streaming with some minor compromises.

The affordable, Walmart-exclusive Roku Premiere+ is identical to the regular Premiere 4K media streamer, but with a much more useful wireless remote.
