user interface is easy to learn, apps are plentiful, don't miss the use of a web browser, available on other devices, feels safer and more stable with less stress and more enjoyment!
have issues with YouTube but only some uploads, cnt work out what the deal is as they play fine on pc....and ads play fine, but certain videos on youtube are screwy. Also.....any idea on why there isnt an off button and only a sleep after 20 mins mode (with re-awake when you hit remote).
Bought the Ultra to replace the basic model that occasionally needed to "restart" when navigation became erratic or jumpy. The Ultra is a little faster, but it also seems to need to be restarted to keep things running smoothly. Now the remote seems to want to skip or jump items I try to select. Needless to say, I am very disappointed with a product that is not problem free and does not perform in a consistent fashion.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was having a lot of connectivity issues with my regular Roku. Also I bought the ultra everything is instantaneous practically. Hoping I don't ever have the same problems I had with the other unit.
Streaming with FireStick had become so painfully bad that we actually considered going back to cable or satellite. My brother recommended Roku so we tried it and WOW what a difference. No buffering, no interruptions during viewing no matter which channel we're viewing! So easy to set up! I do recommend putting the Roku app on your phone, first. That made is simple and quick to get Roku set up on the TV.
