Roku - Ultra 4K Streaming Media Player with JBL Headphones and Enhanced Voice Remote - Black

Have been using Roku 3 for many years now, and the "3" still had the ability to upgrade to new programming and hold extra apps due to it's memory card, but the NEW Roku Ultra really seems snappy! I did install the microSD card from the former Roku3, and it reformatted fine, but from what I understand, one should not NEED to use a memory card in these newer models. If you do, put it in first, the HDMI plug fully covers the tiny SD card slot in back. Snappy? What do I mean? Definite and fast channel changing between apps, Remote has a GREAT feel to it, not too heavy but well-made...and, although it could be in my perception only, since I installed these on two 4k capable sets, the color saturation seems better, I guess you could say the color seems "deeper." I used to use the internal apps in my Sharp TV for best color, but now the Roku does the job equally well if not better. Running one wired and one on wifi, no issues after 3 weeks of daily use. Did not try the headphones as i don't use this feature...but this Roku model should be at home with me for many years!

I love not having multiple remotes on my coffee table. This one remote seems to turn on and off all my electronics, including my TV and my surround sound system. No need to have anything else on the table. And I love just asking for what I want to watch instead of always having to go through all the apps to get to everything. Really cuts down on the search time. And it has so many apps, it's really wonderful.

This Roku Ultra 4k box and remote make streaming very easy toset up and for your family to work seamlessly. Helps make the cutting the cord solution easy too! This combined with YouTube TV and say good by cable company!

We have used Roku virtually since they first came out and have always loved them. Fast forward to the Ultra, we got one several years back for our Master a Bedroom and loved the channel selection, ease of connection and above all the superior streaming quality. The voice command and headphone jack is great too (the included JBL earbuds are also great sounding and comfortable) as well as universal control of our old Samsung TV. Fast forward to today, we bought a second one for our 48” Insignia TV and have zero regrets. And...Disney+ is now supported. Win-win all around!

No way to turn radio off so if you want to limit exposure to radio waves you will have to wrap it like I did. Remote also uses radio waves and it will work through wrap. You have to use tinfoil first then aluminum screen to get rid of most of the waves coming from it. It does not overheat.

Roku Ultra has new features that make the Streaming even better, like earphones, and controls on the remote that give more control.

There are plenty of gadgets for streaming Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, etc... but this is the best. Especially if you connect this through an ethernet cable to your cable modem. Sure you can use this and plenty of other streaming gadgets through Wi-Fi but don't! A direct ethernet connection will give you the best possible performance and also keep your Wi-Fi open for your laptop, tablet and phones.

This is a really nice unit. One of the best things about it is the use of headphones that come with it. You just plug it in and it mutes the TV sound! No more disturbing anyone in the room.
