I have just purchased and done initial set up of Roku Ultra. Finding your video has given me greater insight into it's capability. This was one week on after the remote on my previous Roku disappeared and remained elusive, I decided to go with this device to be able to track remotes rather than replace a non traceable remote. I was skeptical of the benefits and wary of the additional cost. After the fact I wish I had done this sooner! Between my recent new WiFi router and now this device the resolution/contrast and sound benefits to my TV were nothing short of astonishing. I have zero regrets and am happy to have this video to help be take full advantage of features I might not otherwise have found or explored.

Thanks for the video. I’m purchasing this for my mom, she’s 80, has an Apple that she can’t really use. I also appreciate the link to pairing a new remote. I can help her with Roku, I bought the first model & have the ultra. I’m sending her you’re video to help us set it up via FaceTime. Keep up the good work.

I’m thinking of getting a Roku. I canceled my Amazon Prime account for a lot of reasons. And without an Amazon prime account, the Fire TV devices are limited. I’ve also had lagging problems with all my Fire TV devices. Lagging and they also kicked me back too the Home Screen. When I discovered the Roku channel I really liked it. Roku is in a class all by itself. When I canceled my Amazon prime account, I unplugged my FireTV device.

You did an awesome job on this review! I have Firestick and a Nivida device, but Roku is my favorite go-to device. I was searching to compare if I should get another Ultra or get the Streambar? I came across your video. I gotta say although I have the device you were reviewing and use it daily- I learned some things I didn't know about it! Lol, now have my 1 & 2 buttons programmed ;-) Thanks for doing such an in-depth review. Have you compared the Ultra & Streambar? Living in a condo I don't need a soundbar with big base, so with the prices right now about the same- I thought why not get the Streambar. Reading up on the two I read that the Ultra is Roku's best option for the fastest WI-FI transfer speeds and better than the Streambar. Heard the Streambar remote doesn't have the side plug-in option for headphones like the Ultra does. (Yet seeing the box it looks like it offers it.) Also, I read no direct ethernet on Soundbar & the wifi transfer rate is not as fast. I'd love to hear what you think about the differences between these two units. The soundbar would be better than my tv sound that's for sure, but I don't want to lose specs, features or quality for it. Reviews on the Streambar are mixed. Putting the speaker part aside and comparing the abilities of the two what do you think? Ultra or Streambar?

I tend to feel the same way. I keep going back to Roku even with large list of other streaming products I have tested. As it so happens I was just working on finishing up editing my review of the Roku Stream Bar today. I can confirm that the remote that comes with it does not have the plug for headphones, however, if you really want it you can pair another remote that you already have that has it to the Stream Bar and use it that way. I tend to always have two remotes paired to my Roku at any given time. You are also correct that the Stream Bar does not have a direct wired connection. I was a little disappointed in that, but if you have a good signal strength you do not need to worry. Personally I don't feel you would be missing out too much going with the Stream Bar over the Ultra, and having lived in a condo myself up until recently the Stream Bar would be a good size that will give you better sound and not annoy your neighbor. However, I am all about helping people make up their own minds, I don't normally do this but.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2mxfYGYZ8iMa5Y, this will take you to the unlisted video for my review of the Stream Bar complete with sound test before it goes live in 2 weeks. This way you can decided for yourself which is the right fit, while Roku has those sweet sales going on.

Great review. I really like my 2018 Ultra. I was tempted to replace it with this model, but the lack of being able to increase the memory with a MicroSD card was a strike against it for me. That was a huge disappointment to me, because the provided memory gets filled up pretty fast. For about $20.00 I could get 128 gigs of added memory for my 2018 model. Otherwise, IMO the Ultra is still the best.

I thought I would mind not having expandable storage. However I find myself using the same 6 to 10 channels which this version of the Roku can handle just fine. And for any of the channels that don't get saved on to the memory when I click on them the Roku just downloads it back to the device. So for me 30 seconds for downloading have a channel that I don't watch all that often doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would.

Nice review and certainly better than most. It would have been nice if you showed how to "cast" from other devices. Also is this devices Bluetooth feature only a receiver OR does it transmit/pair to external Bluetooth speakers to take advantage of the better sound the video supports? Lastly what version of Bluetooth is it, perhaps v5 ?

Ok, thanks for the feedback, I forget that not everyone knows how to cast from a device. The Bluetooth is only to receive audio from a device. Sadly there is no documentation on what Bluetooth they are using in this device.

I bought a Roku Ultra 4800RW version a couple of months ago and went to set it up today and had problems from the get go. First it wouldn't update itself and give me an activation code. Finally after about 20 minutes it eventually did. I got logged into all of my paid channels except for Netflix and no matter what I did I couldn't get Netflix to work on it. I was on the phone with Roku and Netflix support for about two hours combined and still never resolved the issue. It never goes to the log in screen and instantly sets a NW-8-19 error code. I almost took it outside and smashed it on the ground. I finally unhooked it and put it back in the box and hopefully I can find the receipt so I can take it back to Walmart. I ended up hooking my Roku Ultra 4600 back up and all of my paid subscriptions work fine including Netflix. I'm not sure what the problem is but I'm not impressed with it. The 4600 version has occasional issues where you have to totally reset it and activate it again and is why I bought this new one. When it finally dies, I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

However, your vid was very informative, thanks for your info. Unfortunately, it says our tv isn't supported by 4K. But for some strange reason, I think it is. It doesn't have the Sling button either.

My Ultra has a rechargeable remote and not one with batteries. I wish it did, actually. I just cannot replace batteries if it does not work. With this one I have to buy a new Ultra remote instead of a standard remote with two AA batteries. I smoked one remote with the last ROKO Express that I had and my Roku Express died in a year and one half which meant I had to replace it and set up everything on it, again. I wish Roku had a way to backup its settings to a thumb drive or one of my iPads. This would make replacing or upgrading them a lot easier. As it exist, now, this sucks.

When you're watching a KZbin video in the app, does it give you the option on the video screen to skip to the next video or back to previous video? It looks like the remote only has fast forward and reverse. I find that very annoying and could be a deal breaker. My Sony TV remote has fast forward/backward as well as skip forward and go back to previous video that I use all the time.

Also, when setting up my Ultra, I got a message that I needed to "upgrade my HDMI cable in order to get 4k video" and then only gave me an option to play 1080P to continue with the set up. I was using (as said here in this video) the "premium HDMI cable included in the box" with the Ultra and my TV is a year old 70" Samsung. I will see if I can readjust the settings later this AM. I have a newer Apple TV box thats been connected without an issue. Everything goes through my home theater receiver...

On the Roku website, it says that the Ultra has 50% more wifi range. I have a Roku Streaming Stick that, at the time, said it had the longest wifi range, which is what I am looking for, since I want to use it in an outbuilding that is about 60 feet from my router. The Streaming Stick will work sometimes but I have to restart my router several times a week and the streaming can be very choppy or won't connect to my wifi at all. I am wondering if the Ultra will do a better job for me? We have looked all over the Roku website to find out what the 50% more range actually means in feet or distance and cannot find the information and we have also tried several times to get in touch with Roku support and have not been successful. Would you know the answer for me? Sorry for the length of this "comment".

It's very hard to find actual specs or numbers on Roku site. Which version of the stream stick do you have? I'm not sure if the Roku Ultra would do any better than the Streaming Stick. You might actually do better with some sort of Wi-Fi mesh Network to increase the signal strength in your outbuilding.

I understand that the Credit card requirement is a pain. I don't like it myself either. But, there are ways around it. Roku does this because not everything on the Roku is free so they want to try and make it simpler to get those by having a credit card on file. I have been using Roku as far back as the Roku 2 XS, they have been getting better over time. As for android boxes I have tried a few and they can vary in power greatly. Last you can use the Roku app to type things on Roku instead of hunting and pecking with the remote. Which is helpful.

Can you use the USB3.0 to attach an external HDD to store downloaded movies from Disney+, Vudu, ETC?

It should work, however, the Roku does not support the downloading for content from these providers.

If you attach an external hard drive to the Roku that has video or photo files on it you can play them on the Roku however you need to download a specific Roku media player Channel in order to access those files.

I find that apps are different on different platforms....in fact, an app like KZbin has different features on different platforms. On a PC, you have all features like slow and fast speeds, 360 videos, comments, etc. With other devices, many of these features will be absent. Some will have the feature and it does not work, like slow/fast speeds have no sound. No one ever covers this

I think that might be in part to people reviewing platforms and not the apps across different ones. Most people only want to know how something works in one place. Knowing that there are different options out there can be confusing.

You can not. OTA use COAX which is not supported as an impute method of the Roku Ultra. COAX would normally be plugged into the TV.
