It’s wonderful. Let me start by clarifying, I have 10 TVs. They are a combination of Sony, Samsung, LG, and TCL. This is my first Roku branded TV. As someone with several streaming subscriptions, I fell for the Roku platform years ago when individual brands struggled with licensing of the various services for their own platform. This TV was replacing a TCL TV that had the Roku platform. I have Roku sticks or other Roku devices connected to my other TVs.
I’m pleasantly surprised by the audio quality. The bass levels are deeper and the audio clearer than what I would expect from a slim form TV. This was great for me, since it will be located in the bedroom where I won’t end up adding a soundbar.
The picture is bright and vibrant. The details are crisp and clear. I was expecting this considering the class of the TV. The menu system is snappy and quick and easy to navigate. There are many adjustable picture and audio settings. I specifically love the ease of getting to the Sleep function.
Installation on the wall was easy and it fit my existing slim VESA wall mount. I will probably buy the Roku Pro wall mount just so it sits even more flush to the wall. The cable routing was thoughtfully designed and allows for a recessed outlet behind the TV or routing the cable down to a regular height outlet. I also have a Samsung Frame TV, which also sits flush to the wall, but that TV includes a large control box attached to the TV by a thin cable. This TV does not require such an additional box, so all control functions are built into the TV.
The remote is great. The buttons light up when the remote is moved, which again, is great for the bedroom or dimly lit areas. The buttons are also soft press. This replaces the clicky-buttoned remote that came with the TCL. The remote is also chargeable, so no more looking for replacement batteries.
The only con I can see is the price. Currently listed at $899 for a 55 inch TV, there are other well-known brand options. But the picture, audio, and software platform make it worth the price.

Even better than expected. Moved from a TCL Series 6 55″ to the Roku Pro TV and it was night and day. No longer did we have to close the blinds during the middle of the day if watching a darker show. The auto adjusting AI is incredibly accurate with brightness. The OS is fast and snappy! The screen looks great with rich colors and the sound is wonderful. If you like the top end TCL Roku TV’s this is a huge leap forward. I love this TV and would wholeheartedly suggest it to others.

I really am very pleased with this new Roku smart tv. I replaced my Vizio 47” that I purchased from Dell in 2008. My old tv still has a very good picture but figured it was time to upgrade and I’m not in the least disappointed in this purchase. Great picture and just a small learning curve with the settings but that takes time with any new electronic devices or products. Roku made a very good TV with my 55” Pro-Series 4K. Love it!

I AM A FAN OF THE ROKU SMART TV PLATFORM. IT IS SO SIMPLE EVEN MY 3-YEAR OLD KID CAN USE THE ROKU TV REMOTE.
I DID NOT WANT TO BUY THE ROKU SELECT SERIES TV OR THE ROKU PLUS SERIES TV BECAUSE I FELT LIKE THEIR IMAGE QUALITY WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.
I TOOK A CHANCE WITH THIS 55″ ROKU PRO SERIES TV, AND I LOVE IT.
I HAVE THIS TV IN MY BEDROOM PAIRED WITH THE ROKU WIRELESS SPEAKERS, WHICH GIVES ME A MINI-HOME CINEMA IN MY BEDROOM. IT IS SIMPLY AMAZING.
THE ROKU PRO SERIES TV’S IMAGE QUALITY IS SHARP, COLORFUL, BRIGHT, WITH GREAT CONTRAST, COMPARABLE TO MY 2022 TCL 75″ 6-SERIES (ROKU TV).
I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU IN YOUR PURCHASE. I HAVE NO REGRETS. I LOVE THIS TV.

Picture quality is great with very dark black levels and very bright screen reduces glare from ambient light sources. I hung mine on the wall using the official Roku hinge mount and that worked very well in spite of my wall not being super flat. I used a DirectConnect wall box to mount the power outlet and store cables. At minimum you’ll need a recessed power outlet for this type of install. There are cable management channels with built-in velcro straps. I had it on legs for a week and those are very sturdy as well. All in all you can tell a lot of thought and industrial design went into putting this series on the market. The built-in speakers sound great. The only disappointment is that the V2 remote has no headphone jack, but I just bought an extra V1 remote and it paired up with no problem. Highly recommend!
