According to CNET, the Roku Ultra saw the light of day early this year. It is essentially a light refresh of its previous generation, which debuted around two years ago. Given that, there are no major hardware upgrades, contrary to what some would expect for a new-generation device.

Despite that, the 2022 release now offers a new bundle inclusion, the Voice Remote Pro, which changes everything for this 4K streaming device.

Even if the "new" Roku Ultra is virtually the same as its predecessor, its features and specifications still hold up to this day.

It offers what a modern TV viewer might be looking for, such as a stunning 4K resolution. Not to mention that it also supports Dolby Vision and HDR to further enhance the overall viewing experience.

For those with janky Wi-Fi in their living room or bedroom, the Ethernet LAN port for the Ultra is a welcome addition. It should provide an uninterrupted viewing experience.

Now, all of these are available for less. Best Buy now offers the Roku Ultra (2022) for only $69 in time for the holidays.
