I broke my old insignia, and it was time for an upgrade anyway, so I went in to best buy for a new one since the brand has always served me well. This had everything I was looking for, and was a great price! The 4k is amazing, I love that when I lose my remote I can control it with my phone via the WiFi, and the roku was an added bonus. I was finally able to stream my Netflix, vudu, etc through the tv, vs my blu-ray player. This tv is totally worth it.

I have a Samsung and LG, but this is by far my favorite TV. This is my first Insignia and Roku purchase. I purchased one for myself and one for my brother. From now on, I will only purchase televisions with built in Roku. It’s so convenient and easy to use with just one remote. The picture quality is also great. This is a purchase you want regret.

Bought this during the memorial day special for $50 cheaper. 4k games look amazing on this. I mainly use it for my PS4 Pro and It looks great with blu ray movies and 4k enhanced games. I dont really use the roku but i think its cool you can download apps for what you like, like youtube, adultswim, fandango, vudu, netflix, pandora, etc. Regular tv still looks like any regular tv so theres no change there. Ive only had one issue with this tv tho. I dont know if its my tv only but sometimes it would flash white and black then go back to my game. It might have been defective and i didnt get their geek squad plan on this so i was worried. It hasnt done that lately but it still worries me. Overall im happy with this tv.

My wife and I decided to get a larger tv for the family room and chose the Insignia. We compared it to other brands that were available and this one gave us everthing that we needed. Having Roku, Amazon Prime video and VUDU amongst the streaming networks made this tv a steal.

This television is a fantastic value. The image quality is great and having it be a Roku TV was a major bonus. All i had to do is plug in the tv and connect it to WiFi and viola! I’m very satisfied with the sound as well. Really, really satisfied.

This is the largest TV I have owned. I was skeptical at first, but it is my new relaxing time, especially with so much variety to watch. It does take some time to add channels, but once it's done, lay back and enjoy!

I am no expert on TV so I wanted a TV that was 4 k and smarter than me, and this was the best one for the money overall. I am very satisfied with this TV, it does exactly what I want it to do.

This tv is garbage! I'm so upset. I saved up to buy this tv and I wanted to save money so I did not get a familiar brand like LG. I bought it may 16! It's June6! And it's already has a line across it that goes away when it wants to. I'm fighting now to get my full refund for I can get myself an LG instead. I'm soooooo over it!

it was time for me to upgrade my old westinghouse 55 1080p after 5 years got this insignia and WOW turns on in a sec pictures are great! just have to select your best option HDR will auto detect...switching to other devices, effortless! built in rocku is awesome but the roku software needs to be updated still hate the buffering 3-5 secs remote could have been better. overall great budget tv.

I love this TV! I'm on a budget right now, so I was a bit skeptical at the price for a TV this size. Not only is the quality and color outstanding, but with the added Roku it makes it a fabulous find. It was very easy to set up too. I've owned a lot of televisions including most of the name brands, and couldn't be more pleased.

For many people, name brand TVs with all of the features available with this Insignia are completely out of reach. Comparably equipped sets can easily cost thousands. AND...with that being said, I knew going in that I absolutely could not expect it to perform at a level equal to many of the higher-priced units.
The TV comes packaged extremely well! It is easy to take out of the box, and one person can set it up very easily. About all you really need is a phillips screwdriver. There is a wall-mounting kit you can buy if you want to mount it on the wall, but it costs around 80 dollars, so I opted for the included stand (two attachable "legs"). They attach super easily and are quite sturdy. Instructions are surprisingly easy to read and understand.
The setup after it was set up and turned on was simple, and I was quickly watching my new TV!
The picture quality is very good. Depending upon the video source, you can expect a bit of fuzziness on moving objects. Color is very good. I am well-pleased with the ability to see the picture clearly from many different angles. I have found that light directly in front of the set (lighted ceiling fan) can be distracting and annoying, so keep that in mind when deciding where to place the set.
I have never owned a Roku TV before, nor have I ever subscribed. I was pleased with the amount and types of free unlimited content. There are several other options available for subscription pricing. As far as I am concerned, Netflix is the best deal, and subscription prices range from around 8 dollars to around 13 dollars for the premium subscription.
Now the sound quality? This is the one and only reason I gave this unit a 4-star rating versus a 5-star...the sound quality is substandard, even for a unit in this price range. It gets good volume, but the sound is way too scattered, and the best place to hear it is to the side of the TV, but then you can't hardly watch TV sitting to the side of it. I ended up buying a sound bar, and that took care of the sound issue.
Again, all in all, this is a great 55' TV for the price, and I would highly recommend this unit for anyone who wants an overall good TV.

We finally decided to upgrade to a bigger tv and this Insignia 4K streaming TV was priced right. We went to the store to check the picture and it looked great to us. Set up was very easy. It comes with only a Roku remote, so we are still adapting to the lack of number buttons. But, being able to go into the channel list and delete channels you want to skip over is great. It is a little timing consuming to do so, but once you do, it is great.
Adding all your favorite streaming apps is great, and easy.
The only thing that annoys me is that when changing the volume when streaming through the apps, especially Hulu, the screen grays out somewhat blocking the picture. This is not necessary. It does not do this when watching TV by antenna.
