Roku is a name synonymous with the best streaming devices. It’s always a great way to make your TV smarter, even if you already have smart TV functionality built-in. A dedicated device is always a better solution. In the case of the Roku Ultra LT, you get an ultra-powerful streaming device. Providing you with a lightning-fast interface, it takes no time at all to find your favorite apps, soon leading you to all your favorite shows. Thanks to its 4K support, you also get to see everything in glorious 4K (providing your TV supports it, of course) with Dolby Vision and HDR10+ also part of the deal.

Ultimately, the strength here lies in how smooth the Roku Ultra LT is to use. It offers the best Wi-Fi yet seen in a Roku device so you won’t have to worry about any connection dropouts. It also works with all popular voice assistants including Google Assistant, Siri, and Amazon Alexa. The voice remote is truly useful, saving you the need to tap buttons or use the Roku app.

Elsewhere, you also get useful features like being able to plug your headphones into the Roku remote, or use wireless ones via the mobile app, all saving the need for others to hear what you’re watching. It’s the little things that soon add up and make the Roku Ultra LT an unmissable streaming solution for many homes.

Ordinarily priced at $80, the Roku Ultra LT is down to only $30 right now as part of the Walmart Black Friday deals going on at the moment. This is the ideal time to buy a more powerful streaming device than usual, for significantly less cash.

Read onward and we'll take you through the best Roku Prime Day deals still going on after Prime Day and don't hesitate to make a purchase if you see something you like, as any one of these deals could end without notice.

Grab an electric scooter for $198 in the Walmart Deals sale

While biking can be a lot of fun, it can get tiring, and locking your bike up outside while you're working or shopping isn't always an option. Electric scooters have taken the world by storm because they are more compact than bikes, you can take them with you when you reach wherever you go, and, let's be honest, you don't have to pedal. Luckily, there's a big sale going on at Walmart that sees a discount on the Gotrax Rival Adult Electric Scooter. The price has been knocked down to just $198 from the usual $298. That $100 in savings is pretty substantial and makes it a good option for those who might be on the fence in terms of price.

Why you should buy the Gotrax Rival Electric Scooter
The Gotrax Rival Electric Scooter has a relatively powerful 250W motor that will give you a max speed of 15.5, which might be a bit slower depending on your weight, but otherwise, it's a pretty solid pace, especially if you're on pedestrian roads. The battery has a little over five amp-hours, which roughly translates to up to 12.5 miles of range that you have to work with, although that also will be affected by the quality of the road you're on and you're weight. It has a max weight capacity of 220 pounds.
