Bought that $40 streaming stick last week and it's been nothing but trouble

Ngl I grabbed a Roku Express on sale at Best Buy for $38 and it keeps buffering even on my 200mbps connection. My old Fire Stick from 2019 runs smoother than this thing. Anyone else have luck with a different budget streaming device for binging?

Yeah plugging mine into a wall adapter fixed the buffering issue for me.

Picked up a Roku Express myself three weeks ago and it stutters during 4K shows on my 150mbps fiber. Had to switch back to my old Chromecast just to binge without constant buffering pauses. Did you try plugging it into a USB wall adapter instead of the TV port?
