New Roku Ultra Unboxing and Review

The new Roku Ultra streaming box isn't the best choice for everyone, but it is the best streaming device you can buy. We only have one real complaint.
The Roku Ultra streaming media player is the company’s flagship. It’s been updated for 2019 with new software, faster performance, and the ability to customize the remote control. These changes make the Roku Ultra the best Roku yet. There’s still room for improvement, but the Ultra is a top-notch choice for media streaming.

I dont really want to get a shield either as i have heard horror storys of the image quality it outputs at 4K.

The 2017 AppleTV 4K still beats a 2019 Roku Ultra with a Gigabit Ethernet port, Siri voice commands for REW/FF content, speed of apps opening and running, and the ability to run multiple streams using the PlayStation Vue, ESPN, and Fox Sports Go apps as well as others.

[@therealchickentender]

If you're in the Apple ecosystem, that may be true. But hardware-agnostic is the winning stroke for Roku always in my book. The other factor being that Apple TV is up to twice the cost of a Roku, mostly for a gig port that's largely unnecessary. And FWIW, I've been asking my Google and/or Alexa to FF/Pause/Vol-up/Vol-down etc etc etc on my Rokus for at least a couple years now as well, from any device around the house. Hardware agnostic again.

[@GABubba67]

Well you get what you pay for... AppleTVs processing power is better and it supports Dolby Vision. I find it funny people bring up the cost as a factor when a lot of folks are using it with a tv that’s $1,000+. AppleTVs also support your Geo location same as your cell phone to get local channels when your ISP gives you an out of market IP address. With the Siri remote there’s no need to raise your voice or shout at the tv to fast forward through commercials. 🤣😂🤣

[@diegolara4202]

If your TV has a USB port you can plug in the Roku's power source into the USB port and whenever you power off the TV the Roku gets powered off along with it. The next time you power on the TV the Roku will start up again.

[@richardbutch1617]

I bought A Roku Ultra for my large screen TV and now just 10 days later I am returning it. I have tried several channels and most constantly buffer which is annoying. Other channels seem to be OK. The Amazon Prime channel buffers like every 15 seconds or so, making watching movies almost impossible. On my regular computer Amazon Prime runs perfect without buffering. I had the Roku hooked up using a LAN line and not using WIFI, so it should have had a good signal. So I am not sure what is going on, but I figure for me it would be better just to hook my computer up directly to my large screen TV and watch Amazon Prime that way. Another thing to be aware of is Roku requires your credit card info on it's website to install Roku. You can get around it by doing a web search on how to do a setup without a credit card but you should not have to.

Can I jump between them, like I can on Apple TV, or have one or the other in a picture-in-picture? No one seems to mention that. On Roku Stick, I can't even jump between them because the app has to load each time.

Lmao you must have bought it through Amazon. Because that's the only way you can end up with a Roku running a scam.

You went to a scam website, not the Roku website, by mistake

can i watch ESPN IN Roku? not ESPN PLUS, Just ESPN? Do i have to pay for the espn service?.

A game console is actually the best for apps. The only reason these are good are for 4K content. Which the Xbox one x, PS4 pro and the next gen consoles will have. Game consoles just have more apps and the apps are updated more frequently on there.

So let me ask, what if your tv has Dolby vision and you are watching a movie on Netflix that has Dolby vision, will the movie not show in Dolby vision because the roku does not support Dolby vision???

[@danram247]

I have the Roku Express and its super easy to navigate. The control is the best very simple that in the dark I can easily press buttons without looking. The only thing I don't like is the app shortcut buttons...at least Roku should have an option when buying to get a control that you can pick with the app shortcut buttons of your shoosing...

[@dnegel9546]

Does it support atmos?

[@kevinfranzen9733]

I love my Roku premiere, I had the Roku 2 before it and take the 2 to hotels and see if possible to connect. Why did it add ESPN over Hulu and or Amazon?

[@pietossing]

The quick access buttons vary by where you buy your unit. Regardless, you can add whatever apps you want by just looking them up.

Is the AC adapter included still a universal power supply (100V-240V) thanks

[@Mousland-723]

I have had Roku's since I think the first version. I also have Apple TV 4K that I received as a gift. Hands down Roku is the best streaming device in my opinion.

[@benniea2558]

Can it play in Dobly Atmos audio?

[@Mousland-723]

the dawg according to a search yes it can. It doesn’t current support Dolby Vision

[@Mousland-723]

@Antonio Zamudio the interface on the Roku is super easy to use. And it’s less expensive.
