My favorite streaming sticks just hit record-low prices for October Prime Day — 7 best Roku and Fire TV deals from $17
4K streaming? In this economy? With Roku beating Amazon's Prime Day prices, it's never been cheaper

With the colder months staring us down now, 'tis (almost) the season of cozy nights on the couch catching up on your watchlist. Which means it's the perfect time to upgrade to one of the best streaming devices, to make tuning into the best streaming services as seamless and headache-free as possible. Now that Amazon Prime Day is here, you can upgrade for a fraction of the usual price.
When it comes to the streaming devices we’ve tested, Amazon's Fire TV line-up and Roku's streaming sticks are the industry leaders by a country mile. Right now, Amazon has Roku devices on sale from $17, or you can get Amazon's Fire TV Stick HD on sale for $17. That's 50% off the latter's retail price of $34, and a great option if you don't have a 4K TV.
If you do have one of the best 4K TVs, though, there's one deal I'd recommend above all the rest: the Roku Streaming Stick 4K for $29 at Amazon. This sale offers savings of $15, which is 41% off its normal retail price of $49. Don't have Amazon Prime? Many of these deals are also available at Best Buy.
So if you're thinking of upgrading your streaming setup this holiday season, don't wait. Shop these incredible streaming stick deals now on Prime Day.

The standard Fire TV Stick is no more. It's now the Fire TV Stick HD and at just $17 it's a bargain. If you don't have a 4K television, it's the ideal choice offering access to all your favorite streaming services and a voice-controlled remote. We'd still advise most people to opt for the 4K Max model, but if you don't have a 4K TV this is the streaming stick for you.
