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.

    Our now favorite streaming device

    We had the first gen Roku and have used it here and there as we preferred the Firestick. I bought this to put on another TV in the house after reading a few reviews. We have not needed the Firestick at all now that they let Roku put Amazon Prime Video's on it. We like the way it operates so much we bought another one for another TV. Its very easy to operate and the Roku App on your phone saves the need to buy additional remotes and also gives the ability to use your wireless headphones instead of the wired ones that come with the factory remote. Now those work and sound just fine but I much prefer the use of my wireless ones. Connected to our HD TV it delivers sharp clear video with no buffering and clear audio to our sound bar.

    My house is full of rokus but had I tried this Roku first all my rokus would be this model… but that’s only if they we on sale foe $69 like this one was. $99 was a steep price and a little too much to cause me to get rid of my 4K Apple TV. But at $69 it was worth the try. I did it and and I’m so happy that I sold my Apple TV and yes I am a serious apple sheep. The best feature is the private listening through the remote. It’s a seamless process unlike the Apple TV. Just plug in your headphones and go! My Apple TV dropped quite often or wouldn’t connect to my airpod pro pros and my airpod max so much that I gave up on trying any more. Anyways, you will not be disappointed!

    Good streaming box and faster than the other offerings from Roku. Bought it on sale for $70 which I think it's really worth. Still think the Apple TV is a better box. Apple OS is better and Google TV is a close second. Love that Roku has Airplay 2 support but wish the pro remote came with this version for $100.

    I've used lesser priced Roku's for a few years - decided to upgrade to make it easier for my wife to control the TV. Is nice that the remote will turn TV on/off and control volume - eliminates multiple remotes.

    The ROKU was easy to set up and worked fine once connected. I would recommend this product if you're looking for an alternative to high priced cable or satellite hookups.

    The plug-in earbuds/headphones are great feature for older ones with hearing issues so as not to disturb the whole household. Can even set up this ROKU for wireless earbuds or even airpods!

    This is an excellent streaming box - this is faster than others we have tried. We've tried other streaming sticks and boxes, and the Roku Ultra is faster, doesn't lose signal, and doesn't have other errors.

    Easy set up, easy to use. Cutting the cord to expensive satellite TV and this fits the bill. Using on our 5 year old LG OLED Tv, and we got it on sale, so that's even better

    Good GUI and options, but not perfect.

    Overall it's ok, but I had a couple issues with my application. The main being when the video switches between 1080 and 4k. There isn't an option to leave it in one mode. This plays hell with my projector, since the projector see that that input cuts out and it want to go to sleep. The other issue I had was my Harmony remote or the Roku would lock up and become unresponsive randomly. This would happen anytime and could last up to 3 or 5 min. I did all kinds of research and updates with no solution. I finally got fed up with these to flaws and replaced it with an Apple 4k box. Another issue with this model is the ethernet is only 10/100, there's no reason to not have a gigabit in this other than cost. The audio is decent, the video was great even if 1080 content.

    The roku ultra is best streaming player they have. I've had other rokus with connectivity issues the ultra is best. The remote also has an on/off so you don't need 2 remotes. Best buy has a small section for roku but they don't tell you they have more in tv section. Almost left and went somewhere else.
