Which Roku streaming stick should you buy in 2026? I tested the latest models to help decide
"I remember making the switch from cable to streaming devices 14 years ago at my first apartment. I was fresh out of college and working an entry-level job when paying $80 a month on cable became unsustainable. So I switched to a Roku streaming device in my living room and a Google Chromecast in my bedroom. Also: I changed 6 settings on my Roku TV to give it an instant performance boost"
"Cutting the cord was a permanent thing for me, as it is for most of us who do it, and I've since expanded my streaming device collection to include each of the major streaming platforms. But even if Roku, Google TV, Fire TV, and Apple TV have become as popular as cable was in its heyday, each stands out for its own accomplishments."
A switch from cable to streaming began 14 years ago using a Roku in the living room and a Chromecast in the bedroom to reduce costs. Multiple Roku devices have been used over time while an original 32-inch HD TV became a guest-room display. The Roku Streaming Stick Plus was tested on a better living-room TV for 4K playback. Roku emphasizes a clean, no-frills aesthetic that simplifies navigation for nontechnical users. The standard Streaming Stick remote focuses on simplicity rather than premium features like remote finding or backlit buttons.
