What the title says. I don’t know if the Apple TV is sincerely better than the Ultra, but since I’ve built up what I’d consider a fairly standard home theater system (4K tv with HDR, soundbar w/ Dolby Atmos…no surround system or anything overly fancy) the Roku has caused some annoyances. Right now the hassle is the Paramount Roku app keeps blanking the screen when watching Dolby Vision content, sometimes requiring a tv power cycle.

Anyways, I know I’m asking the Apple crowd here but I’m considering the switch but don’t know if it’s a difference of preferences or if Apple TV (4K) is genuinely superior?

    You are correct, with Apple TV you won’t experience those issues or have to power cycle, but will still go blank for a second when starting Dolby vision/hdr content

      I force mine to always out put 4k hdr 29.97 to my projector and never experience blanking. Match content and frame rate off. I use an Epson 5040ub and it limited 4k hdr due to its chipset
