Review: Roku Ultra 2024 - Ultimate Streaming Player - 4K Streaming Device for TV with HDR10+, Dolby

I see what your problem was with the voice commands. It says that your battery level is at 0% and then immediately after says it's unable to receive audio from your remote. That's because the battery is almost dead. Charge the battery lol!

@Luke, I would actually prefer a remote without presets. I generally don't use the services they were meant for and don't want to mistakenly launch one of them.

My Roku Ultra I got in 2019 still performs very well. I may be tempted to upgrade to this if there is a significant sale on Black Friday though.

I still have the Roku Ultra LT from a couple of years ago when Walmart sold them fir $30 on a Black Friday. It works great! I actually have the original Roku Pro rechargeable remote. I might consider the new Roku Ultra 2024 in the future especially if it goes on sale later this year.

I actually prefer dedicated devices such as this as it allows easy upgrade from older models.

Smart TVs are a worse upgrade as you are stuck with it longer 😢

Had to stop the video and check the date. Thought I got hold of an old video. Your opening comments call the updated device a Roku Ultra 2014. Threw me for a loop until I realized it was just a verbal 'typo.' Otherwise, good review and thanks for the info. 🤣

Did anybody else notice he made an error? He said 2014 at the opening remarks of this episode

My Roku Ultra has recently found itself on the shelf. I switched to Apple TV because that was the only way I could install the Tidal music app. Not only does Apple TV have the app, it also plays Tidal in Dolby Atmos, which is an audiophile's dream.

Great review of the new roku ultra 2024

[williammoore]

I just bought the $99.00 Streambar SE and love it which is this years model

[brandonatech]

I rather pay a few dollars more and get faster experience and no ads on my Home Screen. Plus supports Gigabit.

[ksaboda]

I literally ordered the 2022 ultra like the day before the 2024 model was released 🤦‍♂️. I had no idea they were about to release a new version. The trade off for me, why I’m not returning it for the new model is the new model dropped the headphone jack on the remote.

[ThraxMan]

Is this worth buying if I already have a TCL Roku TV?

[mrrjimm]

Is it worth upgrading from previous version?

[nighthawkvca]

1:53 - That looks to be a USB-A port, not USB-C as mentioned.

[whatis]

Just got mine. You definitely have greater clarity with Youtube. I noticed some of the apps i use, the color is off. It’s not my tv. The older Roku, no difference in color. Not sure how to correct this. Any help?

[eriknapa]

Would you suggest this over the Apple TV 4K?

[kevinsambos]

Hi, is there any incentive buying directly from Roku or can I get it quickly off Amazon all for the same price? Thanks great videos

Doesn’t Wi-Fi six only improve the speed in a more limited area and does not actually give better coverage? Similar to 2.4 versus 5

[BenDMitchell]

You say that the Ethernet port is capped at 100 down. Question is if I hook up via WiFi 6, would I get faster than 100 down? My home WiFi is way faster than 100.
