    I’m very happy with this product. The setup was quick and simple, and the performance is excellent. The streaming is fast, smooth, and the picture quality is great. The remote is easy to use and very responsive. I also like that it has access to many apps and channels all in one place. Overall, it’s a great value for the price and I would definitely recommend it.

    We have several Roku’s in our house with most of them being Roku Sticks but the Ultra is the best. Seems to be faster with more features and it fixed the problem I was having with a several years old Roku Premiere. For some reason it had stopped responding to my Logitech Harmony Elite universal remote so I decided to upgrade and the remote works fine and the additional features from the Ultra are great. The rechargeable remote is also the best thing Roku has done to their remotes. Love it!! Finding it on sale at Christmas time was a great bonus too.

    This is the Roku to have if you use Roku as your main streaming platform. This provides an ethernet port if your Wi-Fi is not as good as it should be. A USB port to view images or videos from a flash drive, The best feature is the remote. The Voice Remote Pro 2. This allows you to enable and disable always on voice detection. It has a rechargeable battery (with included USB C cable) the buttons light up and it has a find me feature! The Roku itself is faster and more responsive than the regular Roku devices. It is a pleasure to use. The audio and video quality are excellent!

    Major Upgrade in Performance and Picture Quality

    Upgrading to the Roku Ultra was absolutely worth it. The picture quality on my new TV is noticeably better compared to the basic Roku, and the extra memory makes a huge difference. I no longer have to reboot the device all the time. It’s faster, smoother, and just works the way it should.

    Intended to cut the monopoly of Cable service, Good hard wire and/or WIFI streamer device, live local Networks channels not so, hate the asking to subscribe for everything, who remember the infinite user/accounts Ids and passcodes, let alone so annoying and invasive. This streamer good for those Non Smart TVs but you still need WIFI or Ethernet service. . With Roku you get hundreds of channels some useless, Sport channels mostly showing days behind replays or decades ago games. If you expect to watch Superbowl or FIFA 2026,dream on! If you location allows you, investing in a good outdoor antenna is a good option to be considered to watch local TV News, some worth it feature shows and available live Sports in local Fox, Univision,ABC,CBS,NBC,ION channels.

    I really love my Roku ultra. I’ve had problems with the sticks overheating in the past, despite the extender connector, Roku provides to help alleviate this issue. The ultra is fast and dependable, and while I have had to restart mine on occasion, who hasn’t had that issue with your technology. Lol This one was actually a gift since the TV I purchased came with Google instead of Roku.

    If you are a fan of ROKU, then you will be a fan of this one. I upgraded from a previous Ultra version and this one is extra snappy and fast. The book time is under 10 seconds and the menu is a fast as it has ever been. The remote is slenderer than before, is back lite when moved, has a built-in battery and a privacy button. It does not have an audio jack which was a disappointment. The battery life is not as long as the traditional AA battery remote. Any movement of the remote and the lights come on. I did have the remote run out of charge without any warning. When you turn on the ROKU it displays the battery bar, but I never saw a warning that it was about to run out. The only other issue I have experienced is with the Hisense TV. If I leave the TV on the ROMU channel and turn off the TV, it will randomly turn on but have a black screen. It didn't do this with the older ROKU Ultra, just the new one. If I change the channel on the TV to something else before turning off, it works just fine. RECAP - best ROKU device! Very Snappy and fast! New remote is great! Cons: Battery life of remote and no low battery warning. No audio jack on remote and turning on my Hisense TV randomly.

    I love that the remote comes with an internal battery and charges with USB-C, no more hunting for AA or AAA batteries. I also love it has a USB port so I can play local media such as MKV files effortlessly. I also like it comes with an ethernet port in addition to Wifi of course. Overall, highly recommended product.

    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.
