Customers are saying
Customers have good things to say about the Ultra Streaming Device's ease of use, picture quality, and remote control. Many appreciate the inclusion of a headphone jack and Dolby Vision, along with the device's 4K capabilities and smooth performance. The user-friendly interface and straightforward setup are also frequently praised. A common concern, however, centers around the remote's battery life.

Very pleased so far. Only wish is for the Spectrum app to be available. Really digging the Dolby Vision and Atmos on Marvel movies.

Easy setup and more apps than tv
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to setup. Includes more apps (like Discovery+) than the smart tv I have and less pixelation/swirling circle than when using the smart tv (Samsung)

Ol reliable Roku
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works great. It's really fast. The remote has lots of features our old one didn't. It was definitely time for an upgrade and the price is very reasonable especially when you catch a sale.

I have tried the rest…just buy Roku!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Roku is the Best name in streaming! Bought a Google Chrome-cast 1st - which was a big mistake. Roku by far is better quality and ease of use.

Best Streaming Device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think Roku is the best streaming device available. It has a vast array of channels to choose from and is easy to set up and use. It rarely fails and when it does you just reboot and off you go. Oh yeah, it’s cheap too.

Best Roku Yet!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolute best Roku yet! Awesome picture. Awesome sound. Finally - a mute button. The only thing Roku could do better is add bluetooth so you can listen to sound via bluetooth headphones without using the Roku app.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fully functional remote controls the Roku and then adds full volume and muting ckntrol of the TV as well as on/off power for the TV.

Love it
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is our second Roku Ultra. Works great. Easy to use and install. Much better than most disc player and smart TV app browsers. Got it on a great sale at Christmas, otherwise normal price is a little high.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the old model, and it was having problems displaying 4k and hdr content. No problem at all with this one. Does a great job. It has tons of apps, I like the remote, and it is so much faster than my tv software.

Great for Projector TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My installer said that I needed the best Roku out there for my projector TV. I believed him and bought this. I was told it loads faster. I don't have much to compare it to, but it works fine.

Mixed emotions/undecided
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have mixed emotions. I think I got a defective one. Been trying to go exchange it but covid restrictions and lines outside the door discouraged me every time I try to go. It makes a loud noice when I turn it on. Like when you're pressing a computer key and there's an annoying drum sound? I love feel off the control and the headphone option.
I would recommend this to a friend Great!

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extremely pleased with this Roku Ultra 4K. We are renting a winter home for three months and have very limited options on the cable service provided. I love that I can access my iTunes account as well as Hallmark Channel.

excellent 4k reproduction
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.very fast loading and small footprint. if needed, it is worth going up to the ultra vs the other models. however, if you don't need all its bells and whistles, better off to save some money and get the lower models.
I would recommend this to a friend Switched from AppleTV
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replace AppleTV 4K with this device. I’ve had all generations of the Apple TV. They were good but had their issues. Great performance and stability with the Ultra. Plays well with other devices…something that my AppleTV 4K struggles with. I sold all three of my AppleTV 4Ks and replaced them with Roku Ultras…no regrets

Awesome dolby
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great unit w dolby vision and sound. Don't hesitate to buy
I would recommend this to a friend Excellent with a couple caveats
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Roku Ultra has a nice layout, it has an ethernet port, the remote is also laid out well and is a nice size (bigger than Firestick and Apple TV remotes). I find that Roku works better for some apps than Apple TV. Fubo and ESPN+ being examples. Not as well for Discovery+. You can't get YouTube TV on it because of their ongoing dispute. The wired earplugs are not great for sound. They plug into the remote so if you are near the remote, it's fine, if not that could be an issue for you. If you use AirPods, they are not so simple to use. You probably would want to Google the steps involved for making that happen. Unlike Firestick which makes it very easy to use AirPods.
