Is this a good TV for a bedroom?

Yes. The 50-inch size and simple Roku interface suit bedrooms and dens, and the set is light enough for a dresser or wall mount.

It supports HDR10, but the panel's limited brightness means the effect is subtle compared with brighter mid-range TVs.

Can I use Alexa or Google Assistant?

Yes. It works with both Alexa and Google Home for voice control, and the included remote has voice search.

How many HDMI ports does it have?

Four HDMI inputs, enough for a console, streaming stick, cable box and soundbar.

Is it good for gaming?

It is fine for casual gaming, but the 60Hz refresh rate and lack of variable refresh rate limit fast-paced games.

What comes in the box?

The TV, stand, voice remote, power cable and user guide.

Our take on the Pioneer LED 4K UHD Smart Roku TV 50-inch

The Pioneer 50-inch 4K Roku TV is a budget LED set with the Roku smart platform built in, HDR10 support, four HDMI inputs and a voice remote. It uses a direct-lit 60Hz panel, so it handles streaming, sports and casual gaming but not the smooth motion or deep blacks of pricier sets. Roku's interface is one of the simplest to learn, and Alexa and Google Home both work with it. Reviewers of Pioneer's Roku TVs generally call them good value for a secondary room or first 4K TV, while noting average brightness and sound that benefits from a soundbar.
