Roku smart TVs have been popular for years, but Roku only handles the software side \u2014 TCL, Hisense, or other companies design the hardware and sell the final product. Roku now wants to try designing TVs, and has revealed its first lineup of Roku-made smart TVs at CES.<\/p>\n

There are two lineups of smart TVs coming to the United States in \u201cspring 2023,\u201d branded as the Roku Select series and Roku Plus series. The company said in a press release, \u201cBuilding on Roku\u2019s TV streaming leadership and decades of experience, as well as its successful Roku TV program, the new Roku-branded TVs combine the company\u2019s award-winning operating system with its deep expertise in TV hardware, offering more choice and innovation to both consumers and Roku TV partners.\u201d<\/p>\n
