At this point in my life lol I just can’t take the remote serious with that micro charging port. Should’ve been usb type c

They just announced that the newest Roku Ultra will have Bluetooth for private listing.

Or I think it will be available with the 11.5 update.

Nice review! I wish I found your vid first. My main interest was finding a streaming box that supports Ethernet without an adaptor. Thanks also for showing us the back of the unit so we can see for ourselves that it does.

@ShallIStreamIt 2 года назад

Thanks- I appreciate it!

Is there a noticeable difference using the roku ultra vs using a tcl roku tv?

No streaming device being sold in 2022 should not be supporting wifi5e.

1) GREAT VIDEO. 2) The new rechargeable voice pro remote has TERRIBLE battery life. There are MANY complaints of the battery failing, MANY MANY MANY complaints. I've on my third remote and sick of the terrible design and lack of concern by ROKU concerning their remotes!

@jeffm2787 Год назад

The problem with their stupid remotes is they use the same Wi-Fi channels they connect on. So you end up with a foreign Wi-Fi signal sitting on top of your current Wi-Fi. My Unifi AP's keep moving channels trying to avoid the stupid Wi-Fi from the Roku remote. I have the 4800R. I've forced my Roku to 2.4Ghz just to Not slow down my 5Ghz Wi-Fi. I've mostly mostly moved to 6Ghz at this point however.

can you install iptv players on it . or any way to do that?

@switchunboxing Год назад

Okay I like the shortcut button. This is looking better than Apple TV. Can I assign the shortcut to be a specific TV input? I’m looking for a device where I can turn on the tv via voice (preferably through my Google home) and quickly switch between Netflix and my Nintendo switch. Also I would like a web browser or ability to easily cast for one. Also I want a very fast and snappy responsive and smooth UI which is what has me looking at Apple

@michaeldamico5152 Год назад

I am currently using the Roku 2 for my Streaming and when I choose the RU-vid Channel I get a pop-up that suggests I insert a memory chip, however, the Roku 2 doesn't have a place to insert a memory chip, so that pop-up message must pertain to later models than what I have. My question is do the newer Roku devices come with built-in memory so your channels don't have to take the time to download files they need before you can watch the channel? Up to this point, when I select the RU-vid Channel it takes about 30 seconds for files to download to my player and then I can watch anything I want after that without any delay. I'm just asking if this issue of waiting for files to download is a thing of the past.

@switchunboxing Год назад

Do you think this thing turns on faster than an Xbox one? I’m thinking about just using my Xbox one for these features. Unless there’s a benefit of the Roku?

@EMNM22 2 года назад

Does it have a web browser? Oh, amazon has it now for $90!

@ShallIStreamIt 2 года назад

Nothing built in. There's some third-party apps but they're kind of sketchy IMO. You can always use cast your screen from your phone with Airplay, Google, etc.

@switchunboxing Год назад

Is the UI faster and smoother than the stick? What’s the Roku Pro?

@fr0103 Год назад

QA: I have a 2020 ROKU Ultra unit in perfect working order. I run wired as I'm streaming DSL @ 3mbps download. The review cited that the 2022 model has the same internal specs (i.e., ARM Cortex A7 quad core) and 100mbps ethernet port, as the 2020. Other than featuring more / updated apps, will the 2022 unit improve or help maximize my signal or should I save my money.

@racktech6384 Год назад

3mbps will not help improve speed. you will still experience buffering. Might look into upgrading your isp services. Specially for streaming movie content. Good Luck .

@gnewt75 2 года назад

Which apps on the 4802 supports Dolby Atmos? I'm reading that Netflix, Paramount Plus, Hulu aren't.

@alanb6196 Год назад

I'm pretty much only minutes from cutting the cord. And after a lot of comparisons, I've talked myself into the Ultra. Something I can't find in my searches is the answer to a question "Should I pair this with a Roku enabled TV?" What do you think?

@ShallIStreamIt Год назад

It won’t matter. If you have a Roku enabled TV, that basically means it has its own, separate Roku living inside the TV. From my experience it’s usually better to have a separate streaming device since the built-in interface on “smart TVs” can be kinda slow. But you don’t need a Roku enabled TV to use a Roku player.

Are you able to stream CNN with Roku? Thank you.

@ShallIStreamIt 2 года назад

There's a couple different ways to get content from CNN on Roku: 1) Free option: The CNN app as well as certain free apps like Pluto have various news stories you can stream for free (with ads). You won't get the full channel, though. 2) Paid option: If you subscribe to certain live TV streaming services, you can stream the same feed of CNN you'd get on cable, except over the internet through their app. The cheapest way to do this is with Sling TV and their plans start at $35/month.
