The Roku has long been known as one of the best TV boxes on the market. It has a speedy processor, easy to use and understand interface and many supported channels. But with the Roku 3, all of that is magnified and then some. Without further ado, here are the Roku 3’s best features.
The Remote Headphone Jack
This is unprecedented in a TV box. Apple TV doesn’t have it, and neither does Amazon Fire TV. The remote headphone jack on the Roku 3 is a small jack on the little, purple Roku remote. This allows any user to plug in a pair of headphones to the remote and listen on a personal level to whatever’s on the TV without bothering anyone else. Is your son or daughter doing homework in the next room, and you don’t want to bother them? Do you want to watch TV in bed while your honey is asleep? This feature allows you to do that.
Over 1000 Supported Channels
Unlike other TV boxes and even past versions of the Roku, the Roku 3 has more than 1000 channels to choose from, including some that are hard to find. Finally, Roku has YouTube, but you’ll also find HBO Go, Vudu, Pandora, MLB.TV, Hulu Plus and Amazon Cloud Player.
Searchable Content and Faster Processor
You may have thought that past versions of the Roku were fast enough, but think again. The Roku 3’s processor is even faster, and it has an amazing extra feature that allows users to search through tons of content. Before, you could only search specific channels for certain movies or TV shows. Now you can go through tons of channels to search for one item, and the new speed is obvious as soon as you turn on the unit (now, even smaller than ever). Check out the Roku at their official website.
