You should be able to control (on/off, mute, volume) your Samsung TV with the Voice Remote that comes with pretty much every Roku device except the least expensive Express model. You definitely don't need a Roku TV. I say should because for some reason sometimes setting up the remote to control the TV doesn't go as smoothly as it should. I have a very old Samsung TV that works with my Roku remote.
