Christmas is around the corner, and a Roku streaming stick can help your annual re-watch of Love Actually, Home Alone and Die Hard. Luckily, streaming devices from Roku are on sale right now on Amazon.
The most inexpensive model in the Roku lineup is the Roku Express HD. Right now it’s only $18, which is a 40% drop from the already low price of $30. It’s great for upgrading older TVs, which is why this shopper chose it: “I finally decided to buy one to help keep my TV relevant. Most of the apps from my 2011 model TV don't work anymore and limit its functionality [...] Setting everything up doesn't take long, around 10-15 minutes.”
For an even better option, consider the Roku Streaming Stick 4K instead. It offers all the features of the Streaming Stick+ but adds Dolby Vision, HDR10+ for crisper video quality. This has also dropped in price; now it’s $25, a 50% discount off the usual $50 price tag. “We purchased our Roku Streaming Stick 4K for a wall-mounted TV where we didn't want any exposed wiring,” said one happy shopper. “The Streaming Stick is self contained. Just plug the "stick" in an HDMI port and the USB power wire from the stick into the TV's adjacent USB port and away it goes. It makes a clean installation that's out of sight. Works great along with our DirectTV wireless Genie DVR receiver that fits on the back of the TV out of sight as well.”
If you're looking for top-of-the-line performance, the Roku Ultra 4K is the latest iteration of the streaming device, with crazy-powerful specs that include Dolby Vision and HDR10+ compatibility, as well as Dolby Atmos sound. It also comes with the upgraded Roku Voice Remote Pro, which has a headphone jack so you can listen straight from the remote. Can your phone do that? (CoughAppleCough). Right now, it's 31% off at just $69. One happy customer called it "flawless." "I love my Roku! Especially the voice recognition. I love how you can say 'hey Roku, find my remote' and the remote starts chirping. Roku provides plenty of paid apps and free apps for your daily helping of entertainment. [...] Roku is a powerhouse when it comes to games, streaming etc."
Last but not least, Roku also sells soundbars! If you don’t already have one, they’re a perfect addition to your TV, as they pack in Roku’s streaming software inside as well. And right now, the Roku Streambar is down to just $80 — nearly 40% off. One shopper says: “This soundbar is small enough to sit at an angle on our old corner mounted flat screen. The sound is IMPRESSIVE for such a small package. It can get a lot louder than I expected and we'll never need to turn it all the way up.”
