Among the Spring Sale TV deals is for the Roku Pro Series, the company’s flagship model. The 55-inch Roku Pro Series TV is now selling for $598 at Amazon. That price, a 34% discount, is a great deal for Roku’s top TV. The 55-inch model briefly dropped to $538 earlier this year, but its current $598 price tag is the next lowest we’ve yet seen.

Today's best Roku Pro Series deal

The Roku Pro Series is TechRadar’s pick for best budget TV. In our Roku Pro Series review, we admired its picture quality, and also its clear, well-defined sound – something made possible by a 'shadowbox' frame with front-firing speakers. The Pro Series doesn’t hit the same brightness heights as the best mini-LED TVs, but its picture is impressive for the price.

The Pro Series is also a solid TV for gaming, with a 120Hz refresh rate, and VRR and ALLM (including FreeSync) support. We measured its input lag at 9.4ms, an ultra-low level that ranks the Pro Series among the best gaming TVs.

A key part of a Roku TV’s appeal is the company’s smart TV interface, which is among the cleanest and most intuitive available. Roku also makes all sorts of Roku devices, from wireless subwoofers to smart lights, and these can be controlled directly from the TV’s smart interface.
