I had the Roku 2 XS and the Roku 4 and each time they get a bit more powerful and responsive. This Utra not only adds HDR to my 4 that did limited 4K but the remote is better and the unit doesn’t seem to overheat as easily.

This Roku box is amazing, It exceeds everything I thought it would be. The remote works flawlessly, very quick booting and running and best of all it can easily be hidden and taken to a friends house if you want.

Cut the cable cord and get a Roku. It makes signing up for Hulu, Netfli, Prime or any other streaming service easy and you have it all in one place. The remote is easy to use and has a headphone jack for those who have a significant other that don’t like to sleep with the TV on. TV power and volume can be controlled from the Roku remote so no need for multiple remotes.

We recently cut the cable and I found the streaming apps were clumsy or missing in some of our smart tv's. I acquired Roku units for all of the TV's and we appreciate the standard operation. This unit is particularly solid - the WiFi receiver does certain seem to handle weaker signals better. And I love the fact that the remote easily controls TV functions (power and volume) AND the remote jack allows me to use headphones and not disturb my sleeping spouse.

I have a 4k Samsung tv and this new roku is perfect for it! I love the new updates apps (much better than my roku 3) and the quality I think is Great! I love the free options of watching on the Roku Channels. The other app, the 4k movies app, I had thought was free but you have to pay for it from individual apps, but if you're willing to pay for it it seems worth it. I like the remote finding options, and the choices of sound is cool . Overall is enjoy using it.

I previously had another Roku box in my basement and wanted another for my living room. (long story!) The Roku is easy to use and allows me to watch Netflix and SlingTV. I am able to watch what I want, when I want without the high prices of cable TV through a provider. I also purchased a Mohu Leaf antenna at the same time for local channels.

We decided to cut the cord on cable and that Roku was the way to go.
It was easy to setup and the free options are great.
No more equipment rental fees for us and couldn't be happier.

I was using my Sony BluRay player as a streaming player, after having continual issues with buffering I finally decided to give an actual streaming device a try. After reading many reviews I picked this device.
This thing is amazing! I've been using tons in the last few weeks and never had any issues, no buffering, no freezing, nothing! I've used it on Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, works great on all of them.
Netflix has the best user interface allowing for reliable rewinds, and fast forwards, the others are not as developed and glitch sometimes, this is the fault of the user interface not the Roku box.
I'm awesomely happy with this purchase!

After my cable bill jumped up to unreasonable levels, I decided it was time to cut the cord. I figured Roku would be the way to go. I started up with one of the cheapest models to test and once I liked, I picked up this one. All the goodness of the Roku features, and the ability to plug it directly into the TV.
Great pick up, but may not be worth the price unless you need something that you just want to be out of the way.

I love roku products. I previously had a nexus player which was made obsolete by the last round of android 8.0 upgrade making the up look like trash. Roku has a beautiful interface and convenient buttons on the remote for going straight to Netflix. It also has a sweet feature locate lost remotes. It also turns the tv on and off as well as volume control which is great for ridding yourself of additional remotes.

Huge fan of the Ultra!! It was easy to set up and use overall. I have a new Sony Bravia smart TV, and I prefer the Roku apps and the speed of the device which is so much quicker than the smart TV applications. Only downside, is that I wish you could power off the device; having it on all the time seems completely unnecessary, and likely a waste of a trace amount of energy.

This Roku is great for any type of streaming! We noticed our Chromecast was lagging with YouTube and SlingTV streams, so we decided to go big. There’s such a big difference in the quality! Setup was super easy, and the picture quality on our 1080p tv is superb. The fact that Sling and YouTube are built in is a major plus, especially since we can still control some of the YouTube functions with our phones.

I have been a big fan of Roku for a long time. One of the very first ones that came out I still had and it finally quit working. I decided to get a new one and got this one which we love. It has earbuds so my husband can watch and no noise for after I go to bed. Also you can turn the TV on and off with the roku remote and control the volume of the TV. I would definitely purchase this again.

I recently added Comcast and wanted to avoid a box fee. I purchase a Roku ultra. It is easy to use, but the guide is not user friendly. There is no rewind of live TV.
