Roku has announced new streaming sticks, cameras, TV updates, and more in a Spring 2025 refresh of its product line.

Roku announced multiple updates across its catalog of products on Wednesday. The streaming sticks part of the catalog received major updates while keeping the industry-leading size.

Proving that sometimes it’s the small things that make the difference, Roku will be including a mounting template to help you figure out TV placement.

How TV manufacturers haven’t done this for years already is a surprise. It’s nice to see that Roku is paying attention to the small details.
