Roku Ultra | 4K/HDR/HD Streaming Player with Enhanced Remote (Voice, Remote Finder, Headphone Jack, TV Power and Volume), Ethernet, Micro SD and USB (2017)

We own now 3 Roku Ultra's. 2 of them are the earlier 2017 models and now a new later Roku Ultra model 4660. There are so many positives to mention. First, cut the cable and stream only with Roku, save money, and only pay for what you want. Get rid of the Tivo, Cable box, etc that use mechanical hard drives which always fail, slow, and cost extra each month for cable cards or cable company DVR. The Roku's are much smaller. They are super-fast at loading channels like Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc. Our Tivo was a slug, made noise, prone to crashing. None of these problems exist with the Roku. The o

Wow...been using older Roku for years. What a difference! Love the fact that we can control power on/off and volume with new Roku remotes on our TV's and setup took seconds not minutes (automatic). Being able to plug in earbuds to remote is so awesome, as my wife is late night TV watcher, and often times I just want to sleep. This allows us to do both at the same time! Way to go Roku! Only thing missing (and not marking it down for this) is no "mute" button. Common Roku, you got so close to perfection! The user interfaces changes with this new unit, compared to old. This takes some getting use

Good: Does the job and does it well, enabling us to finally cut the cord and go 100% streaming. Excellent picture quality. Large selection of apps, including all the major players in the streaming market. The Ethernet jack is a big plus, taking the streaming load off my wifi. Little or no command lag. Remote's voice control is somewhat limited but actually works, unlike the one in my LG set's remote.(NB: our set is 1080p, not 4K.)Bad: The one thing I distinctly do *not* like about this thing is the remote control. It's possible to oversimplify a user interface, and Roku is apparently taking le

This Roku unit has remarkable features which make it an essential addition to my media watching experience.I recommend it to anyone wanting to enjoy expanded video content that is not normally available on their cable-TV system. This is my second Roku purchase. The first was a Roku 3 that I've enjoyed over several years and continue to use—problem free.The initial setup is easy. You'll need access to the internet and a computer to create an online Roku account. You'll be given a connecting code through the Roku so that your unit can be registered at the website. Registration is free, but have

Package arrived one day later than I was told. Was packaged very well and all items that were suppose to be in the package were there. It did not include an HDMI cord which is the only way I knew to attach it to my TV. So I did have to go purchase one at WalMart the day I got it. There may be another way to attach it to the TV, I don't know. If you have every set up a smart TV you will have no problem setting this up. I did not follow the instructions given because when I turned everything on it looked like my smart TV I had purchased a couple years ago. The instructions I am sure are fine to

Roku players Rock. The format is easy to use. Lots and lots and lots of choices I have very a slow internet connection at 1.5 Mbps yeah I know fast huh. It used to be slower. We live out in the country and that is all that is available on a land line. There is some cell signal available at a very steep price for unlimited Data and I am not willing to pay the price. Even our cell phone service will not work unless it goes thru the Router. I've dealt with this for a while I know it's hard to believe. Anyway about 2 years ago I got rid of Dish network after 20 years and was looking for something

What an incredible device. Where do I even start? I was one of the many tired of paying high cable bills to watch a few preferred channels. I have excellent internet service with Google Fiber, and bandwidth is not an issue, so I dropped the TV portion, and bought a few streaming devices. My experience with Roku was first on the Roku Premiere +, which worked very well and is similar to the Ultra, except no 4k support. When I purchased a 4K TV, it was time to get another Roku device so I went with the Ultra. I prefer the beefier hardware over what the sticks offer, just to ensure fastest process

Some background - I have a 3 year old Samsung 'Smart' TV (purchased from Amazon) connected with an Ethernet cable for streaming videos. For 3 years I have been constantly interrupted with Samsung's updating of their so-called "Smart Hub'. Right in the middle of a show the screen would freeze then notify me that it was updating again, a process that took 5 to 10 minutes each time. I put up with this until last month when my cable company decided to reconfigure their digital transmissions, requiring an adapter to unscramble their now-scrambled channels. Suddenly what was a beautiful full-screen
