Roku is android based, but is completely locked down. You can’t do any sideloading or customization with it. Think of it like an apple device. It runs very well.

No, different OS. You’ll have to buy an Android based steamer like Chromecast or Fire Stick.

Amazing little stick, got it around 2 years ago for the same price.
Only gripe I have is that it has an issue with the remote not working, I thought it was burning through triple A's at a high rate and probably changed the batteries once a month, but it turns out to be a connection issue, if you reboot the roku it will reconnect. I just learned this recently... so I wasted a lot of AAAs.
It travels a lot easier. We take ours on the road and plug it into our hotel room TV. As long as the hotels wifi is good, it works great. Even use it at our timeshare in Cabo San Lucas, MX.
No. Your Roku TV essentially has one of these built inside of it.

If I have Roku TV, does it do anything different than that?

So you have to reboot every time you turn on your tv? I ended switching to rechargeable batteries due to the battery use.
Best Buy via eBay allows payment via Paypal. Discover card members are eligible for 5% cashback when using paypal this quarter. Nice find OP. Worth the upgrade from their older models for the improved wifi and especially for the TV control functions which are built into the remote. With other models the Roku can query the TV over HDMI and auto detect the setup of the TV buttons on the Roku's remote. I'd expect this model can do that trick too. It's pretty slick and makes initial setup very painless.
Is roku android based and can sideload apps or they have their own OS ?
