Considering purchasing a Roku Streambar to replace my 3820r Streaming Stick, Bose Solo 5 bar and get the OS12 update.  How upgradable has Roku made this latest Streambar?  I don't want to buy one and find out in a year that the system will not accept future software/firmware updates. 

Thanks, Pete.

Well you didn't answer the one question I had  (how upgradable is the Streambar?).  I guess that this Streambar is on it's way out and will be replaced by a better model. 

Thanks, Pete

Thanks for your response. @wfopete.

Each Roku device is unique but shares the same streaming experience. This device is still capable of receiving updates and future updates.

If you're referring to a new model, we have the upgraded version, which is the Roku Steambar Pro. In regards to future models, we don't have much information to share with you at the moment.

I hope this answers your query!

Thanks,

Rey

I have the Roku Streambar Pro and it has been super solid no issues and easy set up. If you’re looking to upgrade, I would recommend this device.
