No more headphone jack on Roku Ultra

Jump to solution

Very disappointed that the remote included with the top-of-the-line Roku player does NOT have a headphone jack. Being able to plug headphones directly into the remote is a key feature that we use everyday to maintain sanity in our household. So now I'm supposed to pay another $30 to get a remote that still has the headphone jack. Bad move, Roku.

No, I don't want to have to use an app on my phone to use headphones!

I'm with you. I hate not having the headphone jack. I looked far and wide to find earbuds that are comfortable for my apparently ridiculously small ears, and finding out that I have to connect to Bluetooth and wear uncomfortable Bluetooth earbuds for hours, while my boyfriend sleeps, makes me like this a lot less. I don't care how slim it is, and it was worth the shorter battery life for me. Options are nice, and I don't see why Roku could not have given both.
