RCA DSB778WU Wi-Fi Streaming Media Player with 1080p

 

Features: The RCA Steaming Media Player will play Vudu Movies, Vudu Apps, Youtube, Netflix, Picasa, Hulu Plus, and Pandora. It’s easy to set up, and easy to navigate. The streaming will stream in full 1080p, and the device can either hook up through HDMI or component. Let’s discuss some of the pros and cons of the device in detail.

 

Specifications:
1080p:
This offers the highest resolution videos for current TV models. The Roku, a competitor, may only offer 720p whereas this has full 1080p. It’s great quality video and audio.

Small: Takes up very little space, and only needs a power plug and HDMI if you’re a minimalist. It will turn on and off, but won’t use much electricity.

Options: There are lots of settings for pan and scan, letterbox, etc. The setup process reminds me more of a router setup because it’s got so many options to change. It’s not too much, but it’s not streamlined either. However, it gives you a lot of control.

Channels: There are several channels you may use a lot: Pandora, Netflix, Hulu…but that’s about it. The Roku has TONS more channels to pick from. So, if you want more channels than listed, you’re out of luck.

Remote: There are too many buttons to feel like this is a streamlined remote. It’s also very thin, and feels cheap. There are no bumps or ridges on the buttons either to help you figure out where your thumb is on the remote. If you haven’t used this a lot, you will spend a lot of time searching for your button. And, with no backlighting, it may be hard to find your button in the dark.

WiFi: The wifi signal across the house worked, but the Roku received a stronger signal in the same place, meaning the RCA may not have as strong of an antennae as the Roku. But, it went through 3 walls across the house and still worked just fine
