Roku Pro Series OLED Makes the Jump to OLED Without Losing What Makes Roku Easy

One of Roku’s biggest strengths is its consistently user-friendly experience. Even if you’ve never encountered the Roku interface before, you can be up and streaming right away. They’ve extended this same philosophy as they’ve expanded into televisions. Now they’re adding in OLED with their new Roku Pro Series OLED and Pro Series LX OLED TVs!

Roku Pro Series OLED

The hardware will have the same Roku spin on it-you won’t need tools to set these up, and cable management is built right in. All the OLED TVs will also sport ultra-thin bezels because you want to focus on the screen, not the frame! The iconic Roku remote will have a Bluetooth headphone mode, and if you’ve ever tried to watch TV without waking up anyone else in the room, you’ll appreciate that! Pro OLED will also sport a backlit remote, while Pro LX will come with a Roku Voice Remote Pro.

And of course, because these televisions sport OLED, you’re getting the best visual experience. Automatic Game Mode means you don’t need to stop and fiddle with the screen settings before you dive into your game of choice (Sonic the Hedgehog? GTA 6? Minecraft? Solitaire? Doesn’t matter, they’ll all look good!) Likewise, the screen will bring sharp color and action to sports, so maybe for once everyone else won’t complain they can’t see the puck in hockey!

On the software side, you’ll get the full Roku experience. The Home Screen learns to show your favorite streaming services up front, so you’re not scrolling forever to find what you want to watch, and Roku offers a single sign-on for any streaming services you manage via Roku’s services. There’s also an on-TV remote finder feature, which is almost enough to sell the television alone. Anyone who’s had a toddler who loved remote controls knows exactly how tempting the Roku remote is to small hands and how easily it can disappear.

Both Pro and Pro LX will provide an incredible viewing experience; the main difference is that the LX offers a 144Hz refresh rate, while the regular Pro is 120Hz. No matter which you choose, you’re getting a fantastic Roku experience at an amazing price:

The Roku Pro Series OLED retails for $999 for 55″/$1,199 for 65″, and the Pro LX 55″/65″ pricing is to be determined, pending the release on October 22nd.
