A ROKU streaming box is down to just $17 at Amazon — but there’s a cheaper rival on sale, too.
Amazon has released a flurry of deals as part of its Prime Day shopping event.
But one of the best deals doesn’t require any Prime membership.
It’s a “limited time” offer on the Roku Express HD, which attaches to the back of your TV to give you more characteristics.
The gadget’s official price of US$29.99 has dropped to just US$17.

This represents a discount of US$12.99, equivalent to 43% off the total price.
This box gives your television access to Roku TV software.
This means you can enjoy a wide range of apps, including premium options like Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV, Hulu, and HBO Max.
But you can also watch a huge library of free, ad-supported content.
For starters, you’ll have the Roku Channel with hundreds of live channels and thousands of TV shows and movies.
And there are a wide range of apps that offer free television, including Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex and Amazon Freevee.
The big problem with this device is that it has limited HD resolution.
Therefore, you won’t be able to enjoy the full pixel density resolution of 4K content – it will be limited to HD, even if your TV is Ultra HD.

This device is very popular on Amazon, with a score of 4.7/5 based on over 38,000 reviews.
One buyer with a verified purchase badge said: “Overall, the Roku Express is an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their TV with a hassle-free streaming experience.”

Plus, you’ll receive a free six-month subscription to the MGM+ streaming service.
It’s a hit with shoppers who have left it with a score of 4.6/5 based on over 66,500 reviews.
