The more expensive Roku Ultra offers most of all the same features as the Streaming Stick Plus, but adds Dolby Vision and several remote-centric functions.

The Roku Stick Plus can support Dolby Atmos, Dolby's best in-home audio format.

Amazon recommends 15Mbps is ample for 4K streaming, while YouTube and Netflix recommend 20.

Streaming in 4K requires more bandwidth, and in the case of Netflix, a more expensive plan.

This isn't a big deal unless a) you have a Dolby Vision-capable TV, and b) it performs significantly better with Dolby Vision compared to HDR10.

The Plus lacks Dolby Vision HDR, so all HDR is delivered as HDR10.

We tried plugging an old USB-to-Mini-USB cable in instead and received an error message.

You can't use the Plus without the Receiver cable.

That thing in our right hand is the Advanced Wireless Receiver.

AirPlay makes the Roku a strong play for people knee-deep in Apple's ecosystem who don't want to pony up for an Apple TV 4K. It allows iPhones and other Apple devices to connect to your TV wirelessly, to mirror screens, show photos, control apps and more. But Roku has support for Apple's AirPlay system, a feature Amazon and Google lack. If you're knee-deep in the ecosystems of Amazon or Google you might appreciate those devices' ability to control smart home gear using your TV remote. Their menu systems are more modern-looking than Roku, with TV shows and movies on the home pages as opposed to just app tiles, but they're also more cluttered and potentially confusing.

Both offer Dolby Vision HDR and superior voice support, thanks to Alexa and Google Assistant, respectively. Its closest competitors are the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K and the Chromecast with Google TV, both of which also cost $50. The Streaming Stick Plus is still a solid choice, however, and if you can find it on sale for the same price - and maybe you prefer its stick-like form factor - it's worth considering. The newer model offers essentially the same features but costs $10 less. The newest 4K HDR Roku, the Roku Express 4K Plus, is our new pick over the Roku Streaming Stick Plus and the best streamer for the money overall. The Streaming Stick Plus remains a part of Roku's 2021 lineup, but it's no longer our favorite.
