Tiny Roku Remote is Painful

Anyone else hate the 2 inch wide Roku remote ?  Difficult to hold and the volume button on the side is just an awful location.  Aggravated a tendon in my hand trying to keep the volume from dropping too low during dialogue and then booming during commercials/action scenes.

  • The Roku remote is the reason I won't buy another Roku device. The buttons on the top of the remote are awful: prone to accidental presses whenever you move on the sofa. The app is a much better remote IMO.

      The whole remote needs a redesign.  Volume buttons need to be on top.  They need to add a number pad so we don't have to scroll through 1000 tv channels.  And finally the tiny remote needs to be upsized so it's more comfortable to hold in hand.
