The Ultra solved the connectivity issues. Picture quality and remote are top notch.

I had the earlier version of the Roku Ultra the remote kept requiring a battery reset (plug in the remote) even though it was fully charged. So far this remote works fine.

This streaming device finally makes it simple to watch television again! I have all my apps in one place signed in! The most important part I was able to help my 90 year old mother watch something on Apple TV or Netflix or Hulu or Disney without too much trouble. I don't think we realize how hard it is for some older people to actually watch programs on television. Roku Ultra streaming device really helped! Thank you Roku!

Gotta say works great and fast the reason for purchase when my family travels most hotels have maybe Netflix built in to theirs TVs but also have free WiFi. I got this so the kids have all the media apps available and using this instead of what the hotel provides it’s a lot faster … and it’s very portable

Very fast device compared to other streaming devices. Supports all of the latest tech features such as Atmos, HDR10+, Dobly Vision etc.
The find remote feature is amazing, I have twin toddlers and the remote routinely disapears so being able to hit the button on the side of the unit is amazing.
Only downsides is for some reason Disney+ seems to glitch out sometimes where audio will play with no video and the remote is very sensitive to touch and there is no lock for it. So if you leave the remote on the bed even the slightest movement will sometimes hit buttons.
Otherwise it runs much better and smoother than any built in TV system or multiple generations of firesticks i've used.

The Roku Streaming Box is an absolute game-changer for anyone looking for a seamless, affordable, and feature-packed streaming experience. Setup is incredibly easy, and the user-friendly interface makes navigation a breeze. I love the streaming quality with my 4K TV and the remote is simple yet effective. I have yet to find a better streaming device with an intuitive and high performing OS. I have tried other streaming devices on the market and nothing compares to the ease of use ROKU.

So many great features and easy to use. I honestly love the remote and the Bluetooth headphones work seamlessly which is great for when my wife is studying and I can still watch TV. Also tv sound is something my grandma struggles hearing the tv but the headphones are better! Tried it with AirPods and Sonys and it’s great. It’s the bells and whistles model and it feels like it. I also love the find the remote feature as our couch is remote hungry…

I have a 2017 Samsung TV and needed a device to stream certain apps that would not work on my "older" TV. I had a problem develop within the 1 year warranty period with the remote control where certain arrow buttons would not work without a lot of extra force. I contacted support and they sent me the correct replacement but not until they sent one that wasn't correct. You want the remote that has a back light to it!!! Otherwise, it works find. Just be aware that certain older models of the Roku have problems getting the Tablo app to work on them, so if you use the Tablo app and you have problems getting it to work, them be prepared to return the device.

Had some points and a gift card I would not typically update an already great ROKU with another great ROKU but pulled the trigger because it was roughly double the wifi speed of my previous. I didn't think the backlit remote would matter to me much but IT DOES. Love it

I've owned many Roku models over the years. The Ultra has always been the best, and this model is no exception. Picture quality is excellent and, as always, the Roku interface just makes sense. No muss, no fuss. On my wish list though: Roku should do multitasking, like Apple TV does, where you can have multiple apps running at the same time & easily switch between them quickly.
Also, the rechargeable remote that comes with this unit is OK, but I still prefer the older style that uses 2AA batteries, and bonus, has a headphone jack as well. This remote has no headphone jack at all. I still would recommend this unit.

The Roku Ultra is a solid streaming device with excellent performance, especially for those who want fast navigation, 4K Dolby Vision support, and a strong Wi-Fi connection. While it’s a bit pricier than other Roku models, the added speed and features make it worth it for serious streamers. Overall, it’s a great choice for Roku users who want the best experience.

We were blown away by the ease of connecting all our apps to the Roku
It does so many things for us such as turning TV off and on or putting close captioning off or on
I’ve never seen anything connect so quickly
It out gunned anything we’ve used before
