Last year Roku officially announced the new Roku Voice Remote Pro (2nd Ed.) that was first spotted in testing last fall. This new remote makes it easy for you to upgrade your old Roku TV or Roku Player with a new powerful remote with new features. This will give you a ton of new features not included with your older Roku remote. The best part is that it is on sale right now for $25.58, its lowest price ever. Even better this Roku Remote includes a programmable button that can open any app you want, giving Roku owners the long-awaited ability to create their own quick launch buttons.

So, is it worth upgrading to this remote? Here is our full review on YouTube:
Among the standout features is a motion-activated backlight that springs to life the moment you pick up the remote, illuminating the buttons for effortless navigation in dim lighting. Ditching the outdated micro-USB charging port, Roku has embraced the more versatile and widely adopted USB-C standard, aligning the device with contemporary tech trends.
The Pro Remote 2 also boasts a new dedicated guide button, a one-tap gateway to the Roku Guide. This feature consolidates access to over-the-air (OTA) antenna channels and streaming options from the Roku Channel.T
his new remote isincluded with the new Roku Pro TVs and the Roku Ultra 2024.
This new remote features many requests from Roku’s most dedicated fans. USB-C and backlit buttons will make many fans happy. The loss of one of the programmable buttons though will be missed by many.
