GREAT TV with poor side angle viewing
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best TV that Roku has ever produced - only complaint is the side angle viewing is one of the worst I have seen - wash out and color bleeding when viewing from the side - I would recommend looking at it in person but when viewing the TV from the center the picture is high quality - blacks are black and the audio sounds really good out of the box.

I usually by Samsung, however two of them developed white spots and then the siund also went out on obe of them. I wanted a 120 refresh rate and we use Roku, so I got the Roku tv. It is awesome. The sound is the best of all six of our tvs. The built in Roku works great. I would highly recommend this tv.

Nice picture, easy setup. Would recommend.

Best TV Yet
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are very pleased with the quality of our TV. The clarity of the picture for the cost is amazing. Even after having our TV for about 18 months we still catch ourselves occasionally saying: would you look at how good that picture is.

4.5 Stars
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picture quality is excellent. Colors are deep and accurate. The Roku OS is far better than Google TV and has better app selection. Things to bear in mind: 1) The motion processing could be better 2) The viewing angle is on the narrower side, even for a VA screen.

Amazing TV with tremendous sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wasn't sure how much I would like this TV since it was a 55" and my previous TV was 65" but since we were sitting closer, and the positive reviews regarding the sound from the TV, I decided to take the plunge. I've always enjoyed the Roku smart TV interface but this was my first Rokue brand TV and it has been great. I especially enjoy that the TV remote plugs in to be charged and doesn't need batteries because my kids would routinely lose the battery cover on the back of prior Roku devices. Highly recommend!

They sell TVs not in stock
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV itself is really good. I'm quite satisfied with it. It's the buying experience that reduce the rating to 3 stars. I actually purchased another TV but after about 8 or 9 days of it not arriving in the store I called Best Buy customer service and it turns out the Best Buy in Plymouth, MA sold me a TV that actually was no longer in stock. Had I not called their toll free customer service line I would have had to wait until September 2025 to get a refund for this item being out of stock permanently. It seems that BestBuy routinely sells TV they do NOT actually have in stock in their store. So after going to the store to secure my refund I left quite disappointed. My question of why did you guys sell me a TV that is no longer being stocked was NEVER answered. So I waited a couple of days. Called the store in Plymouth, MA asked the store manager if this TV that I bought would be in stock and he said it would be available tomorrow. I went into BestBuy the next day and bought it. The most disappointing thing about this whole experience is they never offered to make their mistake of selling me a TV that was no longer being stocked right with me. No money off the current TV I purchased. No FREE BestBuy gift card nothing. Stupid me still bought a TV from them. So my advice to you is if you are going to buy a TV from BestBuy make sure its in stock if its not will they actually be getting more and when they'll actually be getting them.

Overall good TV and nice value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall good value. Great picture quality, especially facing straight on. Like most LED TVs, viewing at an angle is not as good, but the Roku TV is pretty decent. Overall sound quality is good. Default sound settings (even dialogue mode) was a bit bass heavy for me, but sound options are easily customizable, which is nice. Excellent streaming service options that you’d expect from Roku and easy to navigate interface. Backlit remote is nice and easy to use. Rechargeable remote battery has a great battery life. Only issue I’ve had is about once every week or two streaming will just suddenly stop mid show as though WiFi cut out, but the TV is plenty close to router, internet speed is fine, and other devices have no issues. Restarting the Roku TV fixes the issue. Overall, though, quite happy with the TV and would highly recommend if you like the Roku brand.

LOVING OUR PRO 55
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been following the Pro Series since Roku announced the new TV series. It has not disappointed. The TV is solid and well constructed. The sound is great. It starts instantly with a crystal clear, bright picture. The rechargeable, lighted remote is great and feel much more solid then previous controls. There is no doubt in my mind, after programming every Smart TV platform Roku is the simplest, most intuitive, and easy to learn and use operation system on the market.

First class bargain!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent picture and has the easy to navigate Roku interface. The sound is good and can be adjusted to promote dialog. I don't need my old soundbar anymore. Only downside is the remote has no numbers for direct entry of tuner channels, but this seems to be true with most televisions today. On the plus side, the remote is backlit upon pickup, has a microphone for verbal commands, and is rechargeable. If you can get this on sale like I did, it's a real bargain.
