Roku's first Mini LED TV is available now, and it includes a feature that takes Samsung's The Frame head-on

If we cast our minds all the way back to January, you might remember Roku announcing that it'll take a bold step into the realm of premium TVs with its Pro Series TV. This Mini LED equipped model would be the first "premium" offering from the company, presenting a modern design and enhanced feature set compared to its entry-level HD and 4K TVs. Well, the wait is finally over, as Roku has launched the Roku Pro Series TV; but the bad news is that they're exclusive to the US for now.

The Roku Pro Series features a 4K resolution, and HDR support with both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision IQ included. Roku advertises this as a QLED TV, with a Mini LED backlight and, presumably, quantum dots which should make for enhanced colour volume. It also features Roku Smart Picture Max which Roku claims will harness the power of its most powerful processor to date alongside a neural processing unit to adapt colour, sharpness and contrast settings to best suit the content you're watching.
