Love the unit works great fast loading and so easy when connecting in a hotel environment, love the rechargeable remote and headphones jack feature only reason I gave 4 star is because newer remote with features i would like to have came out with the ultra model a month after I bought this one and it's to late to return it for a swap
So I originally had an older ROKU, it worked ok but got very hot and once and a while I had to remove the power to it to reset it. This little baby is much cooler, is very responsive and not once I've had to reboot it. It's got plenty of memory for your App's and I love the rechargeable remote. I charged it when I got it and it's been a couple of months and I have yet to charge it. So so far it seems to me that the rechargeable batteries are doing a fine job. I love the ROKU system and now they have live channels being streamed. I won't ever go back to cable TV however I'm stuck with their internet which continues to increase.
The Roku Ultra is a great device with the WiFi 6 added security makes my experience burst with the snappy apps makes everything come alive thanks Roku...
I like it however the remote does not control the sound for the external sound bar which is a problem. The sound on televisions these days is not very good so you're required to get a sound bar. Having to choose between controlling the power to the TV or the sound is not an option. Additionally, being able to listen to the TV through the remote is a nice option. Why isn't this offered on all your remotes now?
We replaced a much older Roku Device and the Ultra and found that it is much faster data speeds with better video and audio quality. Was a great upgrade.
