Roku Pro Series OLED TV Review (2026)
It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but with a friendly user interface, great remote, and below-average price, it doesn’t have to.
Roku has entered the OLED TV market with its first-ever model, the Roku Pro Series, priced at around $1,000. Despite being a budget option, the TV delivers impressive color performance, deep blacks, and an intuitive user experience. However, it falls short in brightness and offers limited size options (55 or 65 inches). Setup is straightforward, with tool-free feet for height adjustment and a friendly UI that can be navigated via phone or remote.
The TV includes HDMI ports, an eARC marked in purple, and gaming-specific ports in white. Connectivity options feature coaxial and optical audio inputs, an Ethernet port, and Wi-Fi 5, which is less than ideal but still reliable. Roku's software provides a superior user experience, with colorful, large app icons and simple menus.
The TV also offers whimsical screensavers and art-themed backdrops, though ads are present. The remote, while well-designed, lacks rechargeability and advanced voice controls. In testing, the Roku Pro Series performed well in sports, movies, and TV shows, with crisp colors and smooth response times, though brightness could be improved.
