## Review summary

NESN 360 for Android is plagued by reliability and access problems. Recurring issues include buffering and hiccups that spoil games, unreliable casting to Chromecast/TV/Xbox, and sign-in/authorization failures with providers like Spectrum. Location-based blackouts and a steep price further reduce value. Navigation and playback controls are often hard to use, worsening the experience. There are isolated reports of decent picture quality on some devices (e.g., Roku Ultra) when the stream holds up, but overall the app’s reliability and accessibility are the main drawbacks.

### Pros

- Good video quality and no freezing when using Roku Ultra (reported in at least one positive review).
- Web sign-in can work in some cases, indicating cross-platform access is possible.

### Cons

- Frequent buffering, playback hiccups, and spoiling of live scores when streams glitch or jump to live unexpectedly.
- Poor casting and device compatibility across Chromecast, Smart TV, and Xbox; casting often fails or is unusable.
- Login/authorization problems with TV providers (e.g., Spectrum) including denial errors that persist for extended periods.
- High price relative to reliability and frequent blackouts/location restrictions that limit where and when content can be watched.
- Brutal navigation and playback controls (hard to fast-forward/rewind, no helpful progress bar) leading to a frustrating user experience.
