What kind of Roku do I need for Peacock?

Answered by Tom Adger

When it comes to using Peacock on Roku, it’s important to note that not all Roku devices are compatible. To enjoy Peacock on your Roku, you’ll need to have either the Roku 2 (4210X model only) or Roku 3 & 4 (model 4200X or later).

I personally have the Roku 3, and it works perfectly fine with Peacock. So, if you have the Roku 3 or 4 (model 4200X or later), you’re good to go. However, if you have an older Roku model, like the Roku 1 or Roku LT, unfortunately, Peacock is not supported on these devices.

It’s always a good idea to check the model number of your Roku device before assuming it will work with Peacock. You can usually find the model number on the bottom or back of your Roku device. If you’re unsure, you can also go to the Roku website and enter your device’s serial number to find out the model.

Now, if you’re wondering about other devices that support Peacock, I can provide some information as well. For PlayStation users, Peacock is supported on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. So, if you have either of these consoles, you can enjoy Peacock on your TV.

Samsung Smart TV owners can also access Peacock on their devices, but there is a compatibility requirement. Peacock is supported on Samsung Smart TVs from 2017 or later. If you’re unsure about the year or model of your Samsung Smart TV, you can check the model number and year on the back or bottom of your TV and then verify it on the Samsung website.

Lastly, for VIZIO Smart TV users, you’ll need to have SmartCast 2.0 or 3.0 on your TV for Peacock to work. This means your VIZIO Smart TV should be from 2016 or newer. If you’re not sure which version of SmartCast your TV has, you can check the settings menu on your TV or consult the VIZIO website for more information.

And let’s not forget Xbox users! Peacock is supported on Xbox One, so if you have an Xbox One console, you’re all set to enjoy Peacock on the big screen.

I hope this information helps you determine the right Roku device or other compatible device you need to enjoy Peacock. Remember to always check the model or version requirements to ensure compatibility. Happy streaming!
