Title: NOW INCLUDES DOLBY VISION - WATCH OUT!!!
Review: I read a review here [ *** Hate Dolby Vision? This is for YOU! ] on april 2022 that stated this model DOES NOT include Dolby vision but the one I just received does have Dolby Vision. I wanted the one "without" Dolby visionBUT.... the picture seems vary bright. Strange, on my new LG TV setting up the Roku made the TV change to Dolby vision. Says it when ever I switch to HDMI number 1 that this Roku is plugged into. I had to switch it from home cinema to standard, both "cinema" settings on my LG TV makes the picture yellow-ish, yuk.I do wonder if Dolby vision updated and got rid of the problem where the picture is way to dark? Mine looks great on the standard setting on my LG TV.So choosing this Roku ultra LT got me nothing over the regular Roku ultra except a lower price, good! and not having to deal with the dreaded rechargeable remote, good!, Rechargeable remotes and other rechargeable stuff is the worst idea ever. Would you like having your remote go "dead" in your hand just when you wanted to watch something important?On the regular more expensive Roku ultra your in for a treat because that is exactly what it will do, meanwhile, next door, I have the old dinosaur Roku ultra LT version that has replaceable battery remote. My Remote batteries go dead I switch them out for new ones in 30 seconds and I am back in action.This Roku Seems to work well, with the usual circus maximus mind numbing insanity session setting up the LG remote to control the Roku, but I persevered and finally got it working.Hint make sure you have both the TV and the Roku setup on the same wireless on the same router and IP block. After you get the TV remote to control the Roku you can switch back to wired on the connection for the TV and the Roku. On my LG TV I went to the connections and chose remote settings then chose OTT, next chose Roku as the brand.Keep the Roku out and visible so the TV remote IR can directly see the Roku unit line of sight.Why is my LG remote RF [Bluetooth] and my Roku remote RF [Bluetooth] and then when I set the LG remote up to control the Roku it only works via line of site IR from my remote. WTF? Hide the Roku and no LG remote control possible. Who is the genius that decided this?---4K picture is bright and clear though you may have to make adjustments to your smart TV if the thing thinks it is smarter then you and mucks up the settings like my LG TV did for me.The bottom line: Knowing this Roku now has Dolby vision, see my photo, I do recommend this Roku if this is what you want, then get it.~

Title: *** Hate Dolby Vision? This is for YOU!
Review: This is the perfect answer for those of us who bought expensive televisions which promised their Dolby Vision feature would make movies look brighter and more colorful, only to discover that in reality, the exact opposite was true. In my case, I have a Sony Bravia A9S 48â OLED 4K tv, which was made in 2021, and is one of their top-of-the-line âMaster Seriesâ sets. And in every other aspect, it truly is the finest picture Iâve ever seen - EXCEPT for itâs insistence upon forcing me to watch 4K movies in Dolby Vision! And if it offered me the option of turning it âoffâ, we wouldnât be having this conversation - but unfortunately, it doesnât.To be clear, Iâm talking about this Dolby Vision problem when using the Sony tvâs built-in apps for the major movie-watching sites, like VUDU, Amazonâs âPrimeâ, Disney+, NetFlix, Movies Anywhere, Apple TV, and the like; I donât have a 4K capable blu-ray player (donât need one, since the apps mentioned above all play 4K movies in crystal-clear sharpness), so whether or not Dolby Vision can be turned off when watching a movie via a 4K blu-ray player, I donât know.So, here I was with this âSonyâs bestâ tv, and because Dolby Vision doesnât work as promised (and by the way, this isnât just âmyâ problem; just do some Google searching, and youâll see that itâs a very common complaint, among virtually every brand of tv out there), i was NOT a happy camper. And then, out of the blue, I found this Roku Ultra LT on Amazon!It solved my Dolby Vision problem, because it doesnât offer the Dolby Vision feature! Now, be sure you get the âLTâ edition of the Roku Ultra, because the model simply called Ultra _does_ have Dolby Vision built in, and I donât think (not positive) you can turn it off there, either.Itâs a genuinely simple solution, too: 1) attach and plug in its power cord; 2) attach the included high-speed HDMI cable between your TV and the Roku; and 3) follow the easy (honest!) step-by-step on-screen directions (they show up automatically on your TV screen)...and viola! You are freed from the tyranny of your setâs built-in Dolby Vision, and can now watch 4K fare in the GLORIOUSLY bright and vivid colors you were always meant to see! And if HDR also, like Dolby Vision, makes movies look too dark on your tv (for e.g., if you have a TCL tv), you can turn the HDR off by going to the Roku deviceâs Home Page/Settings/Display Type, and select either â4K 30Hz TVâ, or, if your high speed HDMI cable is plugged into your tv via a port on the tv that supports âeARCâ, then select the â4K 60Hz TVâ optionâ¦and now youâre free from both of those annoying formats, Dolby Vision -and- HDR, and youâll see the movie in 4K, only brighter and with more vibrant color than those two competing âenhancementâ formats can produce!Folks, for around $68 (as of 4-19-22), I urge you to try this - and if for some reason (I canât imagine what that could be) it doesnât work for you, well, just return it to the good folks at Amazon within a few weeks of receiving it, and youâve lost nothing but a little time. Peace! MFF in Honolulu

Title: A REALLY great user experience! I'm a Roku convert now.
Review: A couple of years ago everyone in our house received Firesticks for Xmas. They constantly lost battery connection and so the batteries had to be switched around so that the Firestick could recognize them again. It also would randomly kick you out of a app. But I recieved this Roku when I moved and it is FANTASTIC!! It's rock solid without any of the terrible and frequent glitches of the old Firestick. The Roku is MUCH faster loading as well. There's even a great feature of providing earbuds and a place to plug them into the remote so you can watch TV without annoying your partner. A REALLY GREAT STREAMING DEVICE!!

Title: Works as Expected
Review: I was having trouble watching my UHD movies on a 65â Sony Bravia TV because for some reason it was not compatible with the Xfinity VUDU app so I bought this for about $30. It works perfectly and resolved my compatibility problem. Itâs easy to use and now I can stream the 400+ UHD movies I own using its VUDU app. It also has myriad* (a lot of) other apps that can be used for streaming in 4k.* many people misuse the word myriad by saying something like âmy new TV can display a myriad of colors.â The âaâ before it and the âofâ after it should no be used. Use the word myriad as you would use âcountlessâ or ânumerous.âAnd, I know Iâm a pompous ass for giving a lesson in proper word usage. I ainât that smart.

Review: Lo adquirà para una pantalla con resolución 4K ya que el SO es un poco lento y no me decepcionó, le instalé el cable Ethernet para darle mayor estabilidad al flujo de la señal de Internet y funciona mucho más rápido, la opción de los audÃfonos conectados al control es buena para evitar molestar con el sonido alto por la noche o simplemente para tener privacidad por el ruido ambiental, no cuenta con cable HDMI pero conseguà uno para 4K por 100 pesos, de verdad vale la pena si buscas sacarle mayor provecho a tu pantalla.
