The Roku Smart Soundbar is an entry-level 2.0 soundbar. It gives you access to Roku’s streaming media player, which organizes your streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ into one place and even lets you display HDR10 via these apps. This bar performs well with dialogue-heavy content like podcasts and TV shows, thanks to its fairly neutral and well-balanced mid-range. You can also use the bar to play surround content, though it doesn’t provide the most immersive listening experience. It doesn’t support Atmos content and it doesn’t have an HDMI In port. There’s no interface on the bar, so you’ll need to connect it to your TV or download the companion app in order to adjust its settings, view its volume level, or access the Roku media player. Overall, it’s still a decent entry-level soundbar that can enhance your TV-watching experience.
