Some of the best Black Friday deals aren’t on massively expensive products; they’re the deals that take useful gadgets into “oh hell yeah” territory. And that’s the case with these streaming stick deals – two US and one UK – because they make already keenly priced streaming dongles even cheaper.

There are two key models on offer here: the Roku Streaming Stick Plus 4K is down to $29 at Walmart, while the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is just $24.99 (was $49.99) at Amazon.

In the UK, you can get the same Roku Streaming Stick Plus 4K for £24.99 (down from £39.99) at Argos. We’re still waiting on Fire TV deals to arrive in the UK.

Both sticks deliver 4K with Dolby Atmos audio and HDR10+, but they’re aimed at slightly different buyers.

The Roku is an entry-level streamer that’s ideal for bringing TVs into the streaming era, and its tiny size means it’s also really well suited to TV setups where there isn’t much space to stick anything behind them.

I think the mid-range Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is a better option for more demanding viewers thanks to its improved performance and Dolby Vision HDR support too.
