Roku's OS 9.2 software takes full advantage of the Ultra's speed, offering up new ways to find the content you want — from what remains the largest selection of streaming sources of any platform.

Ultra convenience extras but not the ultimate high-end streamer

At $100, the Roku Ultra is the most expensive player in Roku's lineup, so what does it offer that the $60 Streaming Stick Plus...doesn't? Its extra features are mostly remote-orientated, and include a remote finder, a headphone jack and a pair of keys that let you program your own shortcuts. It's also a hair faster at launching apps.
