The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other LED, QLED and OLED TVs plus TV mounts, streaming media players, antennas, cables and satellite gear we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

["The Roku 4670RW outputs 4K UHD and includes Ethernet, HDMI, and USB ports, giving it more physical connectivity than Roku's stick and express models. The Ethernet port is the most useful addition for anyone whose TV room has a wired network drop, since it removes the wireless variable from streaming stability entirely.", 'The USB port lets you plug in a flash drive for local media playback, which is a nice addition if you have home videos, photos, or downloaded content to watch outside a streaming service. The Roku OS handles all of that in the same familiar interface used across every Roku device.', '154 ratings at 4.5 stars is a positive but limited data set. The score tracks closely with other Roku boxes in this connectivity class, suggesting the hardware performs reliably. At $87, it is priced at the higher end of the Roku lineup, so comparing the full spec sheet against the similarly priced Roku Ultra before buying is worthwhile.']

Frequently asked questions

Can I use both Ethernet and Wi-Fi on this Roku box?

Roku boxes with Ethernet ports typically let you switch between wired and wireless connections in the network settings menu. When Ethernet is plugged in, it generally takes priority. You can unplug the cable and the device will fall back to Wi-Fi if that network is configured.

What file formats does the USB port support?

Roku supports common video formats like MP4 and MKV, along with popular audio and image file types over USB. Not every codec or container is compatible, so check Roku's official media player documentation for the current supported format list before relying on USB playback for a specific file type.

How is this different from the Roku Streaming Stick?

The stick plugs directly into your TV's HDMI port and relies on Wi-Fi only. The 4670RW is a box that sits near the TV, connects via an HDMI cable, and adds wired Ethernet and USB. If you have a strong Wi-Fi signal and want something tucked behind the TV, the stick works fine. If you want Ethernet or USB, you need the box.
