Roku Express won’t work out of the box

Purchased brand new Roku Express out of the box. When I plug into power, it will not show on tv. White light blinks on device. Why is device not working?

I am using HDMI cable and usb cable to tv. TV is a Samsung 65 in curved tv from around 2017.

Re: Roku Express won’t work out of the box

The tv may not supply enough power to the express, use the usb power block connected to the wall outlet.
