    Love this Roku second one I've had. I love the voice command, it is fast as lightning and it's just a step above the regular Roku the remote is rechargeable I love that. It's a couple upgrades that were you didn't know you needed them and tell you found them would recommend this 100 times over it has made such a difference in even my connectivity. Would definitely buy again and Best buy had the best price

    I am an Apple guy, but I like the fact that this has better options for me. I can use the Bluetooth headset options so i can watch TV at night w out interrupting people trying to sleep. Quick and fast . The cost is very good compared to Apple TV

    Worth the extra money for this version of Roku-Ultra 2024. The added ability to connect the 3rd party Wi-Fi devices giving the ability for high quality wireless audio. One minor negative is the lack of a numeric keypad on the remote requires the use of voice operations. Not all of the apps are the same and require speaking differently to some of them.

    I ordered this unit to replace a previous generation Ultra that was glitching frequently; apps would sometimes freeze as they launched, streams would lose the audio or play without captions. This would necessitate a reboot to solve the issues. While this new version seems to function more smoothly, the same issues persist, though they occur less frequently. I'm hopeful that the ongoing firmware updates will help alleviate these annoyances. Overall, it's still an excellent player, and I would recommend it.

    Made cutting the cord so much easier

    I absolutely love my Roku! It’s incredibly easy to use and navigate. I’ve wanted to cut the cable cord for years but kept putting it off—wish I had done it sooner. Roku made the switch painless and totally worth it. All my favorite streaming apps are right there, and setting it up was a breeze. Highly recommend if you're thinking of ditching cable and going streaming! To be fair, I'm using Roku on an older, flat screen TV which is not a Smart TV, I am not sure I would use or need Roku if/when I get a Smart TV. My one complaint is with their Live TV, I am unable to choose which episode I would like to watch. For example, The Goldbergs plays on Roku's Live TV, you'd think they would also stream The Goldbergs and one would be able to choose the episode to watch, I haven't found how to do that, or if it's even possible without using another app within Roku.

    I've had many streaming boxes,including NVIDIA Shield Tivo, Google TV, ONN. This is a winner. I avoided it because no Google play store. I've learned that the reason that Roku won't allow the play store is that they can't guarantee that the apps will work with their boxes. That makes sense. I had buffering issues with other boxes, but not with Roku. This is just my opinion. I love it.

    A great purchase. This device is extremely simple to use, and allows all streaming apps we subscribe to, to function with the same level of ease. This is extremely important for my wife and I since we are very old and can be technically challenged at time. The Dolby Vision looks great on our LG G4.
