Features, settings & updates

I know I'm probably yelling into the wind here but please consider releasing the Roku Ultra in the UK. We have not received a single iteration of the Ultra over the years, and the new one looks great. I would import it but iPlayer won't work on it.

Hi, @pabulous.

Greetings from the Roku Community!

Thanks for your interest in our latest streaming player: the Roku Ultra 2024!

We don’t have specific release details for the UK just yet but stay tuned for updates on Roku.com or the Roku blog for the ultimate scoop. 

Happy streaming!

Regards,
Reynan

I'm in the same boat although I don't use iPlayer or any other UK TV streaming services. Primarily use my current Roku for Plex.

We've never had a release of the Roku Ultra or some of the other products like wireless speakers and/or subwoofer which is really disappointing. Most of the people I know use Rokus from recommendations I've given them and overall have been very pleased with whichever model they purchased.

My Roku Premiere from 2019 is finally giving up after being an absolute trooper for nearly 5 years. At the moment, the Apple TV 4K and Google TV are looking promising to replace it as there is no Roku alternatives. Particularly something with ethernet and/or good enough Wi-Fi. I really don't want to switch from Roku but unless they released the Ultra soon, I'll have no choice. 😞
