Had to buy this to replace our older Roku Ultra that suddenly died after around 3 years of use. Initial set up was easy, however, a few days afterward there was a purple shade to the TV picture. Had to reset the Roku multiple times, including unplugging both the Roku and the TV before the picture returned to normal. After a month, the issue has not happened again. We really like the simplicity of the Roku interface and the consistency of having the same for all TVs in the house. Hope the new model Ultra lasts longer than the previous one.

The Roku Ultra is easy to use packed with pictures the Dolby vision and Dolby Atmos are really good on that. I would recommend this unit over anything in fact it’s just almost as good as my Apple TV is.

The best app streamer on the market! I've used many Rokus for many years and find them to be reliable, fast, great sound and picture quality. Roku is a good platform that updates there products regularly and have the largest amount of streaming apps.

The Roku Ultra is one of the best streaming devices in the market. The interface is easy and effortless and intuitive. The channel lineups seem to follow logical sequence. I love the speed through which you can find what you are looking for. The newest update was a great improvement and well designed. The only from I have with the box is that my LG OLED remote control does function with the box. Therefore I have to switch between remotes. However I do recommend Roku as great alternative to Apple TV and others.The Roku Ultra is one of the best streaming devices out there. The interface is super easy to use and intuitive.

But overall, I highly recommend Roku as a great alternative to Apple TV and other streaming devices.

I have used Roku devices for over a decade and enjoy their ease of use and price point. These have been primarily their stream sticks. I recently upgraded my television to a big screen 4k with a popular brand. So, I bought this new Roku Ultra to enhance my viewing experience. However, after a couple of days, the player began to stall and freeze after streaming for 5 or 6 minutes. After troubleshooting with Roku support it was clear I had a bad unit. No big deal these things happen from time to time. I returned the unit to Best Buy and the return was painless. I now have a second unit in place and all is well! The player's new peppy UI is obvious over a stream stick's and the Dolby Vision and Atmos is superb! I love it and Best Buy made my purchase and return smooth and I cannot praise them enough! Do yourself a favor and pickup the new 2024 Ultra!

It was on sale so I decided to upgrade my 2018 Roku Ultra. I noticed no difference in performance or picture or sound... However the backlit & rechargeable remote is a game changer for me. That made it worth it to me.
My 2018 Roku was heavier and seemed better quality and the new one seems light and "cheap". But I've mounted my Roku to the back of my tv - so the lighter material is actually better for that.
I absolutely love the Roku platform, any and all apps are available. I wish Roku would make some high end TVs so we consolidate everything!

This Roku's rechargeable remote is a game changer! The thing I've hated most about Rokus is having to constantly change the batteries in the remote. Now waiting for the A.I. version that allows you to communicate between apps! Would recommend and buy again!

Got this to replace my outdated Roku that stopped working on some apps and was no longer supported (planned firmware/hardware obsolescence). Works like old one, but has rechargeable remote with voice control and battery charge lasts. Still works with old optical remotes, which is handy. I plugged the power brick into my smart power strip, so it doesn't waste power when not being used, so it takes a few seconds to boot when tv is powered up.

I wanted to upgrade my ROKU after finally deciding to turn in my Xfinity cable boxes to save rental charges. I updated my mancave TV to test out the upgrade and the noticeable uptick in picture, sound and upgrade features of the ROKU and Remote was awesome. After my testing period I purchased and upgraded an additional 3 TV with ROKU Ultra, which is truly the biggest testimony I gave really give for this product.

Works great. It improved my picture quality. Great selection of default services. Finding it easy to set up and to use. Like the backlit remote. I liked the Ultra so much I bought a sound-bar Roku for my office TV. Really improved the sound and picture on that TV.

I bought this Roku Ultra (2024) unit because my Roku Streaming Stick was failing due to overheating issues.
It was easy to set up and allowed for easier placement. The new remote is rechargeable, so no more looking for spare batteries. Definitely more responsive than the Roku 4K Streaming Stick.

Roku is always our go-to device for streaming devices. They are extremely reliable and these Ultras deliver great picture quality. We prefer to use the wired connectivity for the internet and these give us the opportunity.

This the one to get: instructions are rather simple; the remote works great; and Roku lowers TV viewing cost(s) nicely. Very pleased with making this decision and choice.
