Sony BDP-BX370
Score: 68/100
Roku Ultra
Score: 81/100Rankings
The Roku Ultra 2024 is Roku's fastest streaming player, offering 30% faster performance, 4K 60 fps with Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and Dolby Atmos, plus a premium rechargeable remote. Its lack of Apple AirPlay 2/HomeKit and a barrel power connector are notable limitations. Ideal for cord-cutters and families seeking top-tier performance and cinematic experience.
The Sony BDP-BX370 is an ultra-compact Full-HD Blu-ray player with fast boot and built-in Wi-Fi for streaming. Its main trade-offs are the lack of 4K/UHD support and an outdated Wi-Fi standard. Best suited for budget-conscious users who only need 1080p playback.
