Roku Smart Soundbar review

Roku's first soundbar isn't the best in terms of sonic performance, but offers tremendous value for the price.

No HDMI-in ports Narrow soundstage Don’t lose the remote!

If you’re trying to stretch your budget as far as it will go, the Roku Smart Soundbar presents a spectacular value by combining a 4K HDR Roku streaming device and decent-sounding soundbar. That said, if you have the budget to buy both separately and...

Roku Streambar review: A one-box upgrade

Streaming skills with an audio boost.

Loads of streaming services ; Everything you need in the boost ; Good sound for the size

No Ethernet connection ; No Dolby Vision

This soundbar slots into a position where its offering is somewhat unique: it kills two birds with one stone, boosting audio performance without costing a lot of money, while providing access to one of the most complete streaming platforms available.
