The unit's powerful Brilliant Motion Rate 120 (BMR 120) processing provides smooth and clear video motion for even the most demanding, action-packed movies or sports — perfectly detailing all the action.
The Roku OS offers a simple home screen where TV inputs including cable boxes, OTA antennas and gaming consoles are alongside favorite streaming channels, providing access to 500,000+ movies and TV episodes across thousands of free or paid channels. Search across hundreds of channels and see results in order by price, including what’s playing live if there is an HDTV antenna attached. Access to free content is easy to find with The Roku Channel, which offers access to award-winners, cult classics, live news and more with no subscriptions and no fees; and Featured Free provides users with direct links to free in-season episodes of top network shows and full past-season catch-ups.
