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.

this is a good device. if you know I'm going to search on Google you can block ads on almost any device. The biggest irritation is the limitation of the Wi-Fi and the network port. limited to 100 megabits per second on the network and about 130 Mbps on the Wi-Fi side. when trying to stream 4K content at full 4K size. it takes a good 10 seconds to load where a computer on a gigabit network support takes less than a second. I really wish they would upgrade The Wi-Fi to Wi-Fi 7 and the network port too a gig.

I have this. The Walmart Onn Pro boxes are light years faster. it also constantly disconnect from wifi even though it roughly 30' from the router. Roku has a very user friendly UI, but beyond that I can no longer recommend them as there's far better options for less money.
Strange. I've had mine for a few years and haven't had a problem. Is this an issue with newer models?
On a side note, any guesses if this will be cheaper during upcoming Prime days?
Really? You've had the 2024 Roku 4k for years? I would think time travelers would have access to much better stuff.

Are you sure you didn't mean "I have a completely different device with different hardware and software"? Because that wouldn't be very helpful.

I've had Rokus for ages and still have them on many TVs. Then I found the Onn boxes. Holy crap! I now have three Onn boxes and will gradually replace my remaining six Rokus. Main advantages:

1) Google TV allows easy sideloading of apps: smarttube, 1pix media, and many more
2) Can customize home screen so there are NO ads or clutter (I use the projectivy launcher)
3) Response time and app loading time seems snappier (esp vs older Roku sticks!)
4) I can use BT earbuds vs wired plugged into the remote

There are many more reasons, but my love for and loyalty towards Roku is fading.

they used to be 50% on black Friday regularly, but it's been several years since I bought one as my Ultra is still going strong.

I have this. I agree it's their best yet. However, lately the sound will go off and I'll have to restart it about every two days. The internets said it was an update. It seems to be better now. The remote is backlit and charges with USB-C, but I can't tell the battery level. Maybe it's in the menu somewhere, but it would be nice if it was at the top of the screen when the time shows, like a mobile phone.

I have an older Samsung 4k TV (was top-of-the-line at the time) that got to be so annoying with the apps I replace the "smart" part with the Roku. I wish TV manufacturers would just make monitors with good speakers and let the consumer choose the "smart" part for themselves.

Do you know if Roku can do something that the regular mid-end Android TV can't?
I have apple tv set, but im sure the speed of roku is similar. These devices are much less laggier over time unlike most tvs that tend to slow down and be unresponsive. For that reason ill never use smart features on TVs again.

Go to remotes in the settings menu and it will show the battery percentage. When the battety gets low it will show a notification on the screen

Lol. Don't you guys research price histories before buying? Do so, if you don't want buyers remorse.

Any possibility for a price adjustment if you paid with a credit card that offers it?

But God only know what you're losing in terms of privacy when you use anything Google based.
Make a separate email account that you use for logging into streaming services, don't use that account for anything else. That's what I ended up doing for a few years now.

That's why I asked if it's something in the NEWER models. Reading is fundamental. I've had the 4k ultra for a while now and haven't had any of the problems you mentioned. Instead of trying to be a smart ass, maybe answer the question or just keep your comments to yourself.

+1. I picked up an Onn Pro this weekend at Walmart and set it up. Ordered another to replace my other Roku. Used to be a big Roku fan, but they've fallen behind. Good experiences with the Onn box so far so I'd recommend that as better value for the money.
