Roku Ultra - always on top, hands down!

I didn't order the Roku Ultra to see how well the Roku works. I just upgraded from a 2017 Roku Ultra to this one. I bought this unit when I was about to order my first Apple TV and thank goodness I didn't. That was strange since there are only a handful of sources that detail comparisons and honest product reviews for top-of-the-line Roku devices. My old Roku Ultra was showing its age so not only was I able to play Dolby Vision (although it does play Dolby Atmos) but there was the occasional performance lag when constantly watching content or streaming videos from my home theater archive etc, which is what I was looking for a faster streaming device and thought the Apple TV might be the only option available for me, but I was hesitant to buy one as I'm not in the Apple ecosystem. I argued with myself until I happened to find a reliable source to compare all streaming devices with a complete breakdown and on this website I noticed that my assumption about the Roku Ultra was wrong and newer models with a different type of processor and even a different amount of RAM can be supplied. and internet skills. I immediately ordered this device since it was on sale at a $30 discount. Now that I'm writing this review for those who may be having the same issue as me, my new Roku Ultra plays content I've previously seen in HD, but it plays it in Dolby Vision, and yes THIS IS ONE HUGE DIFFERENCE. In addition, this model opens applications much faster and responds to voice commands more easily. Definitely worth it for me.

Pros
  • Attaches the ROKU Ultra to the back of the TV. Ideal for wall mounted TVs.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
