In addition, only the Plus models support Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos sound, and come with the latest version of WiFi (WiFi 6).įinally, while the Select series TVs come with a basic Roku Voice Remote with push-to-talk controls, a remote-finder feature, and programmable shortcut buttons, all Plus series TVs include a rechargeable Roku Voice Remote Pro, so you don’t have to keep replacing batteries. That can help improve contrast and black levels. The Roku Plus models also have full-array LED backlights with local dimming, where individual zones on the TV can be lit or dimmed separately. These tiny nanocrystals have the potential to produce brighter, more saturated colors than sets that use conventional LED backlights. The Roku Plus models are QLED TVs, which use quantum dots rather than filters to produce colors. There are a few reasons you might want to pay more for one of the Roku Plus sets, which did a bit better in our testing than the Select TVs. (Roku Select sets are also available in smaller screen sizes, which have 1080p or 720p resolutions instead of 4K and lower prices.) All the 4K models support the HDR10 and HDR10+ HDR formats and include an auto-brightness feature that uses light sensors to adjust the TV’s brightness to the room’s ambient light conditions. The Roku Select series models are basic sets that lack some of the features you’ll find in the Plus series TVs.
