  • Fantastic access to 4K and non-4K content and apps, Superbly build OS platform, Very easy to use, Great connectivity, superb fleshed out mobile app version of Roku OS, Full 4K support with HDCP 2.2 and HEVC
  • Slightly expensive given lack of gaming features, No gaming features, No HDR support quite yet
  • Unless you're looking for a 4K streaming media box that absolutely needs to support gaming, then the Roku 4K media box is probably the best option on the market right now for pure passive entertainment options and ease of use. We highly recommend it.Chec...

  • The Roku 4 delivers 4K video, promising the best-quality video streams available today. It has more 4K-capable apps than other devices and makes 4K TV shows and movies easy to find. The remote has voice search, a unique headphone jack for private listenin
  • Other devices like Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV offer more capable voice interactions beyond keyword search, and more robust gaming. Most 4K TVs have similar 4K apps already built-in, 4K content is still scarce, new 4K movies are expensive, and image quali
  • The Roku 4 is the best way to get the most 4K video today, but isn't worth the extra money for most buyers...

  • Supports 4K content. Headphone jack-equipped remote. Responsive, easy-to-use interface.
  • Pricier than all previous iterations
  • The Roku 4 adds 4K video streaming support and some useful interface tweaks for the company's most powerful media streamer yet. But the price is a bit higher than we're used to seeing from Roku...

  • Quadcore processor for 60fps 4K, Most egalitarian OS
  • Still pushes MGo, Audible noise and heat
  • If you own a 4K TV, this is hands down the best video streaming system money can buy, offering more options than any one competitor. If you don't need Ultra-HD and still want some of the same amazing OS, consider stepping down to a Roku 2 or 3...

  • Almost everything about the design of the unit is smart and well thought-out. I liked the wider footprint coupled with a flatter profile. Plus, the optical audio out connector allows me to run a cable directly to a soundbar without passing a signal throug
  • Right, so almost everything about the design is great… with the minor exception of the new heat and noise problems. When it's on, expect to hear a faint buzzing noise at all times and a solid 20-degree increase in temperature, And while the operating sys
  • If your current streaming situation fits the bill, the Roku 4 is easily the best home entertainment investment you can make in 2015. The device caters to a modern, must-own-everything-immediately crowd that already owns a 4K TV set and comes with a price...

  • Broad channel selection; 4K 60fps support; same remote with voice search; headphone input and motion control
  • Much flatter and wider than Roku 3; outdated interface design; limited 4K content; minor update over last box; no UK release
  • When it comes to streaming 4K content, the Roku 4 offers one of the most compelling solutions out there - well, out somewhere, as it's not available in the UK just yet. But for those in the US it's an ideal way to watch 4K content, if you have a com...

  • Does what it's supposed to do, no clutter or confusion. Great channel selection, with no glaring omissions. 4K support is forward thinking of not broadly useful quite yet. Voice search is handy at times. So is the remote finding thing. Headphone input on
  • Voice search is basic and hit-or-miss. The Interface aesthetic looks a bit old-hat. MicroSD card isn't as useful as a USB port. Roku's independent appeal is threatened by piling on things like pre-cooked shortcut buttons to particular services and ads in
  • The Roku 4 is just great if you're buying your first streaming box. But maybe not worth $130 if you're a Roku 3 user. (A conversion would put the UK price at around £80, but after VAT is added the device is likely to cost £100) If you're comparison shoppi...

  • Best-in-class operating system, Best-in-class content search, Extremely handy mobile app, Optical Digital Audio on-board, 4K Ultra HD support with HDCP 2.2
  • No HDR support, Some apps feel dated
  • Apple TV has Siri, Amazon Fire TV has gaming, but the Roku has them both beat when it comes to ease of use, content search and discovery, and portability. There's a place for all of these devices in my home, but if I had to pick just one to live with fo...
