  "account": "Roku has unveiled two new OLED TVs priced at $999.99 and $1,199.99, respectively. The budget-friendly OLED displays are part of the brand's Pro Series, which the company hopes will make OLED technology more accessible to consumers.\n\nThe 55-inch model costs $999.99 at Amazon, while the larger 65-inch TV is available for $1,199.99. Both sets feature an ultra-wide viewing experience and a sleek, modern design with an ultra-thin metal bezel.\n\nChris Larson, Roku's Vice President for Retail Strategy, explained in a press release that OLED technology has traditionally been too expensive for many customers. Roku's new OLED models aim to address this issue by offering an affordable option without compromising on display quality.\n\nThe included stand for each TV requires no tools for assembly, making the setup process even more convenient for users. Despite their lower price point, these Roku Pro Series OLED TVs deliver excellent contrast and other features that allow them to fit into a digital detox lifestyle for those who still want to enjoy quality TV entertainment.",
