I'm wondering if the roku ultra has the same processing speed as the soundbar or does the soundbar not have the equal specs to the roku ultra. So is the ultra a faster device than the soundbar or does the soundbar basically have a ultra inside it.
Not quite.
You can check the specs here: https://developer.roku.com/docs/specs/hardware.md
The Ultra 4800 has a newer CPU and more RAM than the Soundbar.
I have used the Streambar, and its performance is comparable to a previous model Ultra 4660. I have no firsthand experience with the Soundbar.
