Why You Can Trust CNET Prime Day Roku Deals: Save Big on Streaming Devices and TV Sets at Amazon
Discounts on Roku devices are already rolling in as Prime Day approaches.
Amazon Prime Day is still a few days away -- with the main event on July 16 and 17 -- but deals have already started to appear. Roku devices come in many shapes and sizes these days, with plenty of options for everyone's TV setup. Though the price of tech is inevitably rising, Amazon Prime Day is sure to offer tons of discounts, deals and record lows, with Roku devices set to be a part of that.
Whether it's an entry-level Roku Express, a Roku Express 4K, a Roku Streambar or a Roku Ultra, we're expecting them all to tumble in cost. And we're rounding up all of them in one place, during the lead-up to the sale, across the two days of the event, and in the aftermath.
Best Prime Day deals on Roku streaming devices
Roku is our favorite streaming system, with the most streaming app options, the simplest streaming platform interface and the best search. It also has a content-agnostic platform that doesn't push any one media streaming service provider, like Amazon Prime Video or Apple, over another. The Express 4K Plus streaming media player is one of the cheapest streaming TV options with 4K HDR. (Even if your current TV doesn't support those formats, your next one probably will.)
The Roku Streaming Stick 4K features the same simple interface, large app selection and impressive search function found on all Roku devices, but also offers Dolby Vision support. Along with a stick-like design, Dolby Vision HDR is the main difference between the Streaming Stick 4K and the Express 4K Plus, and is ostensibly why the Streaming Stick 4K is more expensive than its sibling.
While we think the Streaming Stick 4K is a great device, we're just not sold on the Dolby Vision upgrade -- mostly because we generally don't think that it provides a major image quality upgrade over standard HDR. But if Dolby Vision is important to you, this device will not disappoint.
Starting to be a little outdated but still getting the job done, the Roku Express is only a couple of dollars away from its lowest-ever price at the retailer. Access HD streaming and over 400-plus free live TV channels.
Get a whole 4K TV with Roku's easy-to-use software built right in and save $70. No need for additional streaming sticks or boxes.
