One of the best streaming devices available
I already owned an earlier version of the Roku Ultra and was happy with it, but I decided to take advantage of the holiday sale price and purchase this new model. It performs flawlessly and is noticeably faster than other Roku streaming devices. I especially appreciate the rechargeable remote with backlit buttons that light up as soon as you pick up the remote. It was a hassle to always replace the batteries in the earlier version of the remote, and the charge appears to last a long time. I bought a new Roku Ultra for my mom, too, and she loves it. She especially enjoys being able to control the power and the volume on her TV with the remote. You can't go wrong with this excellent streaming device.

Excellent streaming device
Great streaming product, Helped me cut the cord with cable and saved over $100 a month while getting a ton of free apps and channels, better picture, and better sound. Very easy to set up. It's very intuitive and walks you through the setup process. Piece of cake. User Interface is well, user friendly. I bought Ultra 2024 for main TV so I could hard wire to modem via ethernet. Also bought 4K streaming stick for another TV. Remote is great also. Roku knocked it out of the park with this. I should have gotten rid of cable a long time ago.

Roku Ultra
We decided to get rid of cable and go with streaming. The Roku Ultra fits our needs nicely. It’s fairly quick and easy to set up. The 4K Dolby Vision is a nice feature, as is the rechargeable backlit remote. The range of channels is decent.
