Every smart TV has some sort of interface for getting to your TV channels and launching <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>s. What if that interface was the same one found on Roku devices?<\/p>\n<p>A Roku TV is simply a TV with the Roku software built-in. Rather than plugging in a Roku box or stick and accessing it from a single HDMI input, a Roku TV is Roku all the way down. There\u2019s no switching inputs to get to the Roku home screen. The Roku home screen is the default home screen for everything.<\/p>\n<p>That means your cable box, Blu-ray player, and anything else plugged in to an HDMI port will show up on the Roku home screen. And you only have one remote to worry about. The Roku remote isn\u2019t just capable of controlling the TV\u2014it literally is the TV remote.<\/p>\n<p>Roku itself doesn\u2019t make the TV hardware. Companies such as TCL, Hisense, Philips, and several others make the TV and use Roku\u2019s software in place of their own.\u00a0Simply put, a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/71547\/the-4-best-roku-tvs\/\">Roku TV<\/a> is a smart TV that runs the Roku software.

Let\u2019s start with the advantages.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned, you never have to switch inputs to get to the Roku interface. To use the Blu-ray player connected to your TV, you simply launch that input from the Roku home screen. You can go right back to the Roku home screen when you\u2019re done.\u00a0Also, this works with just one remote. You don\u2019t need to hunt for your TV remote to switch inputs.<\/p>\n<p>If you do a lot of switching between devices connected to your TV, having the Roku software be the default home screen makes it much, much easier. This is why Roku TVs are a popular choice for people who may not be as comfortable with <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There are some disadvantages, though. People typically use a TV for several years, so if the Roku software starts feeling sluggish, you\u2019re kind of stuck with it unless you want to buy an entirely new TV. (Of course, the same is true for any other smart TV\u2019s operating system.) External streaming devices are cheaper and much easier to upgrade independently of your TV.<\/p>\n<p>For something that\u2019s super easy to use, an integrated Roku TV is the way to go. However, if you care a lot about the quality of your TV, you may not want to limit yourself to the ones with Roku built-in. A Roku streaming device can be plugged into any TV and easily move to a new one.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Roku_TV\"><\/span>Best Roku TV<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/best_tvs_tcl-roku.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"tcl roku tv on purple background\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" data-credittext=\"TCL\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">TCL<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Like any TV, there are a lot of options when it comes to Roku TVs.
