Roku Pro Series 75R8C5 74.5"
88 out of 100 low confidence 5 reviews
This Roku TV earns high praise for its stunning picture quality, vibrant colors, and excellent brightness, especially in the 2025 model. Users love the intuitive Roku interface and the innovative Pro Remote with backlit buttons and no batteries. While the built-in speakers are surprisingly good for most, one reviewer found them underwhelming and prefers a soundbar. A minor early issue with local dimming zones resolved itself, and the TV is considered a great value, particularly at sale prices.
