    I recently purchased the Roku - 50" Class Select Series 4K Smart RokuTV from Best Buy, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my decision. This TV offers a truly exceptional viewing experience that exceeds expectations in every way. First and foremost, the picture quality is stunning. The 4K resolution delivers crisp, clear images with vibrant colors and impressive detail. Whether I'm streaming my favorite movies, watching live sports, or playing video games, every frame looks incredibly lifelike and immersive. One of the standout features of this TV is its integration of Roku technology. The built-in Roku platform provides access to a vast library of streaming channels, including all the popular services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+. The interface is intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate through content and find something to watch without any hassle. Another aspect that I appreciate is the simplicity of the setup process. From unboxing to getting everything up and running, the entire installation was a breeze. Plus, the remote control is straightforward and responsive, allowing me to effortlessly switch between different apps and adjust settings as needed. In terms of design, the Roku TV boasts a sleek and modern look that complements any living space. The slim bezels and slim profile give it a premium feel, while the sturdy stand provides stable support. Lastly, the affordability of this TV makes it an unbeatable value for the quality you receive. Compared to other 4K smart TVs on the market, the Roku - 50" Class Select Series offers exceptional performance at a fraction of the price. Overall, I can't recommend the Roku - 50" Class Select Series 4K Smart RokuTV enough. Whether you're a movie buff, a binge-watcher, or a gaming enthusiast, this TV delivers an unparalleled entertainment experience that will elevate your home viewing setup to new heights. If you're in the market for a new television, look no further than this fantastic offering from Roku and Best Buy.

    I have really been enjoying my Roku TV. It is convenient to have all my streaming apps there and ready to use. The TV has many features that I like, but one that I like most is being able to access my home security camera from my TV.

    I recently purchased the Roku Smart TV from Best Buy, and I couldn't be more impressed! The picture quality is fantastic, with rich colors and sharp resolution, especially when streaming 4K content. Setting up the TV was a breeze—thanks to the Roku interface, which is intuitive and user-friendly. Within minutes, I was connected to my Wi-Fi and had all my favorite apps (Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, etc.) ready to go. The Roku platform is great for easy navigation, and the search function works wonderfully, helping me find shows and movies across multiple streaming services. The remote is simple but effective, and I really like the ability to use the Roku mobile app for control if I misplace it. While the sound is decent, it’s not the best, so I’m considering adding a soundbar for a more enhanced audio experience. But overall, this TV offers exceptional value for the price, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, feature-rich smart TV.

    Excellent ultra budget TV

    Excellent ultra budget TV. I bought this as a 2nd TV for my home gym, for Peloton, Zwift, ECT. It works really well for that purpose. I also own an LG 65 inch OLED that I use as my main living room tv. Of course the OLED is superior in performance. But it cost as much as 10 of the Rokus on sale. The Roku really surprised me. It's software and navigation is superior to LG, it's remote is better. The Roku setup experience was way better than LG. The picture on the Roku is decent for the price range it's in, and has good viewing angles for its price range. Depending on your needs and price range I would absolutely recommend this TV for the ultra budget category.

    Great Bank for the Buck

    Setup was extremely easy. Especially since I already had a Roku account. TV joined my Wi-Fi without any issues and unit recognized the other 3 Roku devices I already had. The only weakness of the TV is the speaker/sound system. This weakness is across all manufacturers as they have shrunk the size (mostly depth) of the TV, not allowing for decent speakers to be mounted within the unit. I looked at unit costing 4 times as much and their sound quality was no better. I did end up buying Roku's soundbar directly from them as it was 33% off ($100) The picture quality and colors are excellent. The bang for the buck is tough to beat. The only negatives I saw in reviews was where the TV was shipped to a customer and received damage or had failures quite soon. I chose to go to the store and pick up the TV myself.

    I’ve had my 50-inch Roku TV for a few months now, and honestly, I’m really happy with it—especially for the price. The picture is super clear, and the 4K resolution makes movies and shows look sharp and colorful. I mostly watch Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube, and the built-in Roku system makes it super easy to jump between apps without needing an extra device. Setting it up was really simple—basically plug it in, connect to Wi-Fi, and you’re good to go. The remote is straightforward, and I like that it has shortcut buttons to the main streaming apps I use. I also use the Roku mobile app sometimes when I can’t find the remote, which is a lifesaver!

    **Review for TCL - 50" Class 4-Series 4K UHD HDR Smart Roku TV** The TCL 50" Class 4-Series 4K UHD HDR Smart Roku TV has been a fantastic choice for my setup. I prefer Roku over Google or Fire TV because Roku stands out for its privacy-focused approach and straightforward, no-frills experience. With Roku, there’s no need to worry about excessive data tracking, and logging in is easy and hassle-free. For daily use, this TCL model is a reliable workhorse. It handles everything from movies to news and streaming smoothly, without the high price tag. In my view, spending thousands on a TV doesn’t make sense unless you’re watching extremely high-resolution content, like Apple TV movies in top-tier quality. For most viewing needs, TCL provides excellent quality that works just fine. Overall, this TV is ideal if you want a solid performance without overspending. TCL consistently delivers great value, and the Roku integration makes it perfect for anyone who values simplicity and privacy in their entertainment experience.

    Took a chance on open-box purchase, and I'm so glad I did. I love this Roku TV! Very easy to unbox and set up, awesome picture and sound. I've had Roku for years, now, so I was familiar with it, and I think a Roku TV was a great idea. I do wish it had better contrast and brightness controls. Dark scenes can be difficult to see. But I'm still very happy with it

    My wife likes watching football on our deck and has been making do with a 15 year old 1080p tv and fire stick. She got a surprise when I bought this TV for her. At this price point it is an amazing tv. For the viewing we do outside it has been great, with adequate brightness to view under a covered deck. She was thrilled when she found out it cost almost half what she would have guessed. I wish I was more technical about TVs but the blacks are acceptable, the bright colors are bright enough, the picture has been great without adjustment, and the app makes it easy to manage. It is hard t believe you get this much tv for so little. Definitely better than other brands at this price!

    This is a FANTASTIC TV! I have the 50” TV (which only comes in the “Select” version). I watched some reviews that tried to explain how it is supposed to be a lesser TV than more expensive TVs of its size. I have yet to notice a difference as a consumer. It easily meets the quality of my Sony BRAVIA TV. I bought it for a vacation home, where Spectrum prefers for Roku TVs to use their app to avoid an unnecessary cable box. Setup is easy, perhaps moreso if you are familiar with Roku (which you don’t at all need to be). It is an AMAZING TV and gets the job done. I’m actually about to buy my second Roku TV. If you really care about all the technical specs, then go ahead and spend $$$ on your new TV. But, if you and your family are looking to be entertained by a high quality TV, you can’t go wrong with a Roku Select Series TV!
