30-second review
The new Roku Express 4K+ (2021) is proof that, if you wait long enough for a technology to proliferate, you can eventually buy it at an incredibly low price. Such was the case of SSDs, USBs and high-capacity RAM, and now the same is true for 4K HDR streaming devices.
What the Roku Express 4K+ offers is 4K HDR streaming at up to 60 frames per second over HDMI 2.0b with support for
HDR10+. There’s no Dolby Atmos support or Dolby Vision support, two high-end formats for spatial audio and HDR respectively, but you’re getting most of the features of streaming devices that used to cost over $100 for just $39.99.
Which Apple TV: Apple TV buying guide
Apple sells two kinds of Apple TV: the 4K Apple TV and the 4th gen HD model. Here s how the Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K compare.
The Apple TV is Apple s set-top box that enables you to watch films and TV shows on your big-screen telly through a raft of other online services including Apple TV+, Netflix, Amazon Prime and many of the OnDemand channels. Now in its sixth generation, the Apple TV has evolved a lot over the years; there are currently three models to choose from, and a number of buying options for each.
Roku says the remote can register commands from up to 12 feet away, which held true for me, and it didn’t have trouble picking out the wake phrase while sound played through the TV. Once it hears “Hey Roku,” it lowers the streaming device volume to hear the rest of your command, and the remote had no issues understanding what I was saying even with complex words like

Saying “Hey Roku” brings up a visual prompt on the TV, just like when you hold the remote’s microphone button.
Similar to Alexa on Fire TV, Siri on Apple TV, or Google Assistant on Google TV, Roku’s hands-free system feels magical when everything works properly. You can ask to play a movie or show, load the Roku Channel guide, turn the volume up or down, play or pause, and rewind or fast forward by a specific amount of time. Saying “Hey Roku, replay” is also useful, as it rewinds the current video by 10 seconds with closed captioning temporarily enabled.
