Fantastic bargain TV
HappyinBrookhaven Posted
I wanted a basic TV to stream things on . This was surprisingly a great TV . Set up was within a couple of minutes and the picture quality is fantastic for the price . Sound system is good right out of the box . The main reason I purchased this is because I’m sick of other brands pushing their brand to the front of everything and just making it difficult to operate . This TV is so basic and the remote literally has only a few buttons . My other requirement was the TV depth as it was going to sit on an antique easel . This fit the bill and was a bargain to boot .

Hi HappyinBrookhaven,
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're so glad to hear that the Pioneer 55" 4K UHD Smart Roku TV exceeded your expectations. It’s great to know the setup took only a couple of minutes and that the picture quality and sound impressed you right out of the box—especially at such a great price point.
We’re also happy this TV provided exactly what you were looking for: simple, straightforward operation without all the clutter and complications of other brands. The minimalist remote and easy-to-use interface are designed for exactly that kind of hassle-free experience.
And we love hearing that the slim depth made it a perfect fit for your antique easel—what a unique and stylish setup!

Solid, well built, TV,
RichardC Posted
A good value for size and features. Though it's not QLED or highest, newest model, We replace an old tv that glitched out and loaded very slow, so it feels like a big upgrade to us. This also feels like a physically solid and well built TV, unlike many of the bargain brand TV's that are infamous for lasting less than a couple years. Thank you BestBuy for the opportunity to share my review.

Just the right size for me
DennisB Posted
Easy setup, it started talking to us as soon as we plugged it in. Excellent colour. I like Roku and have been using Roku for years now. Sound quality is better than the last two GE Roku TVs I have owned.

Great TV for a great price
MrRCH Posted
I was looking at getting a tv for a guest bedroom and am a fan of Roku Smart TV’s. After doing comparisons with other tv’s. This one had favorable reviews and the price was outstanding when compared to smaller TV’s. It’s a great TV for a great price. I am actually looking at getting the 70 inch for a Christmas present to myself.

Love those ROKUs
Big screen, nice picture and I'm still finding out all the cool things about the TV. I love these ROKU TV's, I don't need cable with them, unless there's a special movie or show I want to see, then I can buy on demand or start a subscription somewhere.

Good Tv

Bought this 55 inch pioneer TV to replace a small smaller flat screen in my bar area. It’s a decent TV for the money as the old saying you get what you pay for but for the money it cost you can’t beat it.

The Pioneer 55" Class LED 4K UHD Smart Roku TV is not a touch‑screen TV. It’s a standard LED television with Roku smart features, meaning you control it with the included remote.

A lot of TV for the money!!
Jboscobuys Posted
Although I'm still working the TV through it's burning period of 30 days... I've already figured out the things I really like about it and there's a couple things that I don't which I will include in this review. For the price, the picture is absolutely excellent, way better than I expected. I bought this online so sight unseen based on other reviews that I read. It starts up fast when you hit the power button, and although I have not used Roku before, I'm pleased by some of the free options that I was able to download an ad very easily to the menu. I like that the menu is not crazy extensive and very easy to access to adjust brightness because I go from using this in lighter conditions, and then darker conditions so I can very quickly change that based on the environment. You can access more advanced display settings which can help fine tune the image that I already mentioned is very good, especially at this price point which I'm just stunned about. Also, the sound on this TV is very good, and the sound features are extremely good compared to any other TV I've owned. If I put this into speech mode, it actually reduces the background sounds better than any TV I've witnessed, from my own personal experience to my friends TVs which I've spent time watching. I guess I shouldn't be surprised because pioneer has been working in the sound industry for decades. Don't expect an extremely wide viewing angle without some loss of clarity because of the technology obviously, but that's true of all TVs that aren't OLED or wide parameter viewing monitors. I think the one thing I don't like is that if you're using an antenna, it doesn't allow you to manually add a particular channel, it just allows you to scan and access the channels It finds. This is particularly annoying because another TV in my house picks up some local channels that this does not find, and there is no way to add them manually, so please keep that in mind depending on your use. With all that being said, this is an extreme bargain and I think you get a lot more for your money buying pioneer, because some equally featured TVs are going to cost way more and I suspect it has to do with branding as pioneer has always been primarily an audio company. Absolutely pleased with this purchase.

Good TV for the Money
ScottR Posted
Pros: love the Roku interface; great sound quality; decent picture but tended to be not bright enough. Cons: the sound had a glitch that required the TV to be shut down and restarted (loud electronic noise over dialogue); terrible upscaling (not good for watching shows that were not filmed in high definition). Overall: good for the money, but the defect in sound and our tendency to watch older shows forced us to return it.
