The Roku 4 has just recently been announced, and it's promising to improve the way people watch movies and videos.
In order to learn more about how the Roku 4 performs as a video streaming device, it's worth taking the time to take a closer look at what features and specs it possesses.
According to The Verge, among the most notable improvements with the Roku 4 is that it now houses a faster processor than its predecessor, thanks to its beefed up quad core component.
The Roku 4 has also been designed to offer improved WiFi capabilities, which is crucial for a device that primarily provides video streaming. There's also a new optical audio output that should give users more options in terms of how they want to enjoy the sounds of whatever they are watching.
All of the new enhancements have contributed to the Roku 4 growing larger than its predecessor, although the difference does not appear to be that substantial.
In addition to the new hardware components, a new software update is being rolled out just in time for the arrival of the Roku 4.
The new update, known as Roku OS 7, brings along with it some new features that help make the device more convenient to use on the road or at home.
In related news, Roku 4 owners can look forward to more new content being ready for the video streaming device.
