Thinking of getting the select 75 or plus 75 next week...

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

I'm wondering how well the sales will be for these Roku brand tvs? 😊😊😊

[@valueduser2746]

I like where at 3:52 she doesn’t manually switch off the voice remote mic before saying the R word, and the tv shows a prompt.

[@laborspy]

When you compare tv’s side by side at a store, or like this, there is always a better one. That said in your house will look great standing alone.

4:15 I've been using private listening with the Roku remote for years. I guess I missed the point of this comment. I only use the app to search for content.

[@christenorio9555]

Is it an prototype firmware?

[@JaneK6557]

24” ONN smart TV I bought is fantastic and so affordable. I stream a lot of KZbin videos to my TV’s (I have 2 of them) Works beautifully! The remote is also easy to use!

[@jaygreenn92]

Even on my other KZbin accounts I been following cnet & ign since school years I had a lot of gmail account back than & some go back father than others

[@JOELTILSON]

Its a great TV for a decent price with Roku's easy interface.

[@mot1343]

Who makes the Roku tv?

[@zombwars7749]

It's Roku but some of the constituents are from vendors selling Roku the parts. I wouldn't be shocked if the display was made by Samsung. If you look a year ago, it would have been TCL and Hisense making tvs rebranded by Roku with their OS. Right now it seems like those days are over and Roku is moving on with their own TV's.

[@JogBird]

this is prob some OEM with the Roku name printed on

[@HoloScope]

Yep

[@meanstoandend]

That’s like saying iPhones are Samsung because Samsung makes the display. You both are silly

[@DarrellLeeB]

​@@meanstoandendNot an accurate analogy. The original comment is right on the money.

[@meanstoandend]

It’s weird how you’re wrong but so confident about it. I assure you the relationship between the panel maker and roku is much more complicated than than sticking their name on a finished product

[@DarrellLeeB]

@@meanstoandend I have no issue admitting that It's very possible you're correct with that assessment. But as a gambling man I would put my money on our side instead of yours.

[@lukepeddicord5207]

Where’s David Katz?

[@AladdinSaneNYC]

Luke Peddicord: Why? Her presentation was just as good as Katz would have done! Hmmm...♐

[@jonathandiaz6]

Hopefully you can turn off that always-on mic

[@wiwingmargahayu6831]

happy ramadhan fasting

[@Sora588]

Vizio still makes tvs? Jesus lol

[@godspeedmaximus]

Vizio sells a lot of TV’s in America. I bought their OLED tv about 6 months ago

[@godspeedmaximus]

@@dm285 Vizio H1 55inch OLED. Great price. Got it on sale. Great OLED picture quality. But the OS has some bugs

[@sterlonb.digital777]

Your Playstation5 is upside-down 😂

[@CNET]

are you sure?

[@sterlonb.digital777]

​@CNET @ 1:04 Yeah I'm sure

[@lexcorp1516]

​@@sterlonb.digital777 it definitely isn't lol

[@sterlonb.digital777]

​@@lexcorp1516 it most definitely is

[@tonosama516]

It works in either orientation. Sony’s literature has it with the drive underneath. So, the label on the BD faces up. Some people prefer to have the drive on the right. Nobody should care how others place their PS5.

[@godspeedmaximus]

For the price, it is GREAT

[@cheshirecat2363]

You lie: this tv is NOT “completely made by Roku”
