Overview

This Roku Ultra streaming box outputs 4K UHD over HDMI, with an Ethernet jack for buyers who prefer a wired network connection over Wi-Fi. It runs Roku's own smart platform and includes a USB port for local media.

What typically sets an Ultra apart from cheaper Roku sticks is the wired Ethernet jack and USB port, letting it act as a steadier box in rooms where Wi-Fi is patchy or where local media files matter. Its review count suggests a well-established model in Roku's lineup.
