Roku rolls out new streaming boxes for cable-cutters, takes aim at Chromecast

It's Monday September 26th and original streaming ganger Roku has just refreshed their lineup of cable cutting streaming players.

Roku has taken aim at Google's popular Chromecast device with a new and improved streaming stick called the Express. This $30 device is essentially a full-fledged Roku box shrunk down to the HDMI stick form factor, allowing users to control it with the included remote or with the Roku smartphone app. This move puts Roku in direct competition with Google's affordable streaming sticks.

Roku returns to its hockey puckish form factor all the way up to the $130 Roku Ultra which includes 4K HDR video capability a Micro SD card slot optical audio output an ethernet port voice recognition and that clever headphone jack built into the remote. This feature allows users to binge watch all night without disturbing others, making it a great option for those who want to have a quiet viewing experience.
