Review on πŸ“Ί Roku Ultra 2017: 4K/HDR/HD Streaming Player with Enhanced Remote & Advanced Features by Wayne Moody

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The picture is great, just be prepared to change batteries every day - hence the 2 stars. **UPDATE**

I have to change the batteries once in the evening the next day after use. I don't use headphones and I always put them back on the main screen when I'm done (that's what Roku suggested to me) and they're dead as a doornail by the next night. Because of this, I took out the batteries after each use and put them back in the next time I used them. I've had all versions of Roku for years and this one isn't worth the plastic it's wrapped in due to battery issues. Two other Rokus on why other TVs perform like champions and never had a problem. I was so excited to upgrade when I got the 4k TV and the picture is excellent no complaints. Just a pretty tick, I have to take the batteries out after each use due to a manufacturing defect. **UPDATE** Spoke to the folks at Roku and they sent me a new remote. The problem is gone - the battery does not discharge every day. All functions work well.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Modern
