Roku Ultra LT (2023) HD/4K/HDR Dolby Vision Quad-Core Streaming Player with HDMI Cable, Headphones, Voice Remote w/Private Listening, Ethernet

I have an older Samsung TV and the VOD Smart TV apps have been iffy operating sometimes, unable to stream, freezing then even the power button will not work (unplug and wait). That no longer happens. I was researching a replacement TV, when i decided to order the Roku Ultra LT, to see if that would correct the problems, it did. Set up was fairly easy, and worked seamlessly with the Samsung. i used the Ethernet port and plugged directly into the router. All the Apps work so much faster than they did when the Samsung was new, TV turns on faster! Also the headset jack on the remote and included earbuds that plug into the remote work beautifully. Came with all of the cables needed.

Great units that make TV tuning very easy.

Having used a Fire TV cube since 2018, which has severe buffering issues, I decided to give a try to this Roku LT 2023 version. I must say the Roku seems to have a powerful processor compared to the Fire TV cube and better memory management than the Fire TV cube. The Roku also has a faster and better Wifi modem and faster memory modules compared to the Fire TV Cube. The streaming processor in the Roku is light-years ahead of the streaming processor found in the Fire TV cube. It is night and day. The Roku system is faster at surfing through channels, launching channels, changing from one channel to another, launching TV streaming apps, the user interface in general is very fluid, smooth, fast, and I did not notice any stutters or the lag that is prevalent with the Amazon Fire TV Cube. Whatever processor the Roku LT streaming box is using is AMAZING!!. When changing channels or launching TV streaming apps on the Roku, everything works smoothly, fast and efficiently well. The Roku software is well designed, straight to the point and it is a much better experience than what you find on the Fire TV Cube by miles! One major issue with the Fire TV cube is the inability of the streaming processor in the Fire TV cube to sync audio and video. The Fire TV cube seldom ever manages to sync audio and video so that the experience you have is where you see characters on TV speaking and their mouths moving but you hear the sound about 2 or 3 seconds later. Another issue with the Fire TV cube is the slow user interface. The software is slow, full of stutters and at times, a non-responsive and or a slow responding remote control. No amount of software updates pushed by Amazon has fixed these issues which plague what would otherwise be a great TV streaming box. You do not see these issues with the Roku Ultra LT streaming box. This Roku Ultra LT streaming box is a TV box proper! Fast, responsive, efficient, amazing WiFi connectivity, great sound, amazing picture quality, ease of navigating the user interface, tons upon tons of channels and TV streaming apps, responsive remote control which also has a 3.5mm jack for in-ear monitors... i mean... the Roku... wow!... this thing is hooked! This Roku streaming box is what I would recommend to everyone currently using a Fire TV Cube. It is rather unfortunate that Amazon continues to employ weak streaming processors, subpar WiFi modems, limited and slow memory chips which result in poor performance across a wide variety of Amazon Fire TV boxes and their Echo Show devices. It is my hope one day that Amazon utilize better chipsets in their Echo Show and Fire TV devices such as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset and with it, Qualcomm's tried and true WiFi modems, as well as utilize faster and larger memory modules in their Fire TV and Echo Show systems because these faster chipsets would greatly enhance the user experience on the Amazon Fire TV Cube and Amazon's Echo Show devices. It is the slow Mediatek processors Amazon utilizes in their Fire TV box and Echo smart speaker and Echo show systems which ruin user experience. Please Amazon, consider utilizing Qualcomm Snapdragon Processors and Qualcomm Wifi chipsets, as well as larger and faster memory modules so to enhance the user experience on your smart speaker and Fire TV cube devices. Borrow a page from Roku. Have the next iteration of your smart speaker systems and especially the remote control of the next Fire TV Cube... implement a feature where users can connect in-ear monitors for private listening via a 3.5mm jack or Bluetooth connectivity. You could also utilize AMD's Zen 2 APU as a streaming processor across your smart speaker devices and also in the Fire TV Cube. You have the idea and a great line of streaming devices however the choice of utilizing slow and dated components is the reason why the user experience on Amazon Fire TV Cube and the Echo Show smart speaker devices is slow, weary, hopeless and frustrating.

Works great, cheaper than buying from the store

This kit came with everything needed to use the Roku system. This is a replacement for an older player. I like the ease of use, as the system did not change much. The system is compatible with my Roku system and functions better than the older model. The cable it comes with is standard. The player is only for use with the Roku system and therefore is not versatile. My only issue with Roku in general is that the remote drains batteries like crazy. I have gotten into the habit of unplugging my system and removing the batteries after each use!! This habit is super inconvenient and the type of battery used is irrelevant. I have heard of this problem with other users and think that it is a remote or system design problem. I do recommend this player and Roku system.

Great product. Easy hookup and use

I bought two of these and they have worked great.

This is the first time I purchased a Roku streaming device. I do not have any kind of standalone streaming devices since I’ve always used video game consoles for streaming. I purchased for my mom so she could stream movies in her living room and it’s an amazingly easy set up. The ethernet input is a plus and the Roku does have Wi-Fi capability so you can connect it wirelessly to your home/office router. I chose the ethernet connectivity for optimal speeds. The microphone feature in the remote is convenient and helps looking up movies a lot easier. The 3.5mm headphone input built in the remote is a pretty cool feature too. The 3.5mm earbuds are included along with power source and an HDMI cable. Overall, the image looks great, and I feel that the money is worth the value of the product based on its features. The 4K resolution makes any high-def movie look smooth. I’m someone who’s happy still watching standard definition movies myself because I like the graininess of films but that’s besides the point. I felt it was a good buy. All apps are available, including the major streaming platforms and others may need to be downloaded which is pretty simple to do. To relaxing times ! Cheers! -Josh

Très bonne qualité, interface fluide Prise d'alimentation en version US , donc prendre un adaptateur pour l'Europe

Funciona perfectamente bien, rápida respuesta en los diferentes menús, así como la carga de las aplicaciones.

Both in terms of quality, and in terms of ease of use, this is a really great product. I think the limitation now is my television I don’t believe it’s capable of any better image. What I really enjoy, though is the speed between things, and just the intelligence of the set up so user-friendly.

I've used Roku for years for all my streaming services and to manage my plex/personal media. The ultra is the best one I've used. Would definitely recommend
