Discovering 4K content is fast and easy with Roku’s 4K Spotlight Channel. The channel features a curated selection of great 4K content from a variety of popular streaming channels and is updated with new content on a regular basis. A 4K Ultra HD category is also included within the Roku Channel Store to enable consumers to access nearly a dozen streaming services that offer 4K entertainment including Amazon Video, Netflix, VUDU, YouTube, UltraFlix and more. Additional streaming services offering 4K content are expected to be added in the future.
The 4K TCL Roku TV models feature a personalized Home Screen that places streaming channels alongside consumers’ other TV entertainment choices, such as a game console, cable box or Blu-ray player. Consumers no longer have to navigate complicated menus or cycle through inputs to switch between their favorite entertainment. The new 4K TCL Roku TVs provide consumers with easy access to more than 3,000 streaming channels in the U.S. with 300,000+ movies and TV episodes.
Both the P130 and S Series 4K TCL Roku TV models offer dual-band Wi-Fi and Ethernet for blazing fast streaming performance. Both models also include four HDMI 2.0 inputs, including the latest HDCP 2.2 standard, to easily watch Ultra HD content from the newest UHD Blu-ray players and future devices.
All 4K TCL Roku TV models include a powerful quad-core processor and feature Ultra HD picture quality with more than eight million pixels for enhanced clarity and detail. The new TVs also include the proprietary TCL Creative Pro 4K UHD Upscaling Engine, which allows consumers to view 1080p HD content in near 4K quality.
Other key features of the 4K TCL Roku TV models include comprehensive and unbiased Roku Search – including voice search on the enhanced Roku TV remote included with the premium P130 model.
