People complaining about ads? Android TV has that junk now, too, unfortunately.
Community Reviews
Roku Ultra 4K is best as a simple, familiar streaming box with a clean interface, strong app support, and useful extras like multiview for Fubo and a backlit USB-C remote. It also stays responsive better than many smart TV apps, and the remote battery level can be checked in settings or by voice command. The main complaints are slower hardware than competing Onn boxes, occasional Wi-Fi or sound dropouts, and a 100 Mbps Ethernet port that can make full 4K loads feel sluggish. It is a solid fit if you want Roku's easy interface more than raw speed.
Common Questions (5)
The Onn Pro is repeatedly described as faster, cheaper, and more customizable, with Google TV sideloading and launcher options to remove ads and clutter. The Roku Ultra is still favored for its simple UI, multiview with Fubo, and a "just works" experience.
It is praised as Roku's best device for a simple streaming experience, but some users report Wi‑Fi disconnects, occasional sound dropouts, and slower load times on full 4K streams because the network port is limited to 100 Mbps and Wi‑Fi tops out around 130 Mbps. Others say Roku devices stay responsive over time and "just work."
Yes. The 2024 Roku Ultra is described as coming with the backlit rechargeable Pro remote and a USB-C charge cord, and the remote does not appear to have the older Gen 1 headphone jack. The battery level can be checked in Settings under Remotes, and low battery triggers an on-screen notification.
The Roku remote itself is described as backlit and USB-C rechargeable, but Bluetooth earbuds are not highlighted as a Roku feature here. Bluetooth earbuds are specifically mentioned as working on the Onn boxes instead.
Yes. This Roku model and a few other Roku devices support Fubo multiview, which lets you watch multiple sports events at once. Android devices do not support that Fubo feature, and Apple TV is the other brand mentioned as supporting it.

The only ones that don't ever have issues are the Roku's. They just work.
I personally prefer the Google UI, but it's glitchy. Apps lock up sometimes as well.
On a side note, any guesses if this will be cheaper during upcoming Prime days?
