Amazon is having a Memorial Day sale with huge discounts on some of our favorite 4K streaming devices.

Currently, the Roku Streaming Stick 4K is available for $39.

The Editor's Choice Roku Streaming Stick 4K is one of the best streaming devices on the market, and our review of the Roku Streaming Stick Plus shows its simple, streamlined interface, and the fact that it can stream HBO, Hulu, Netflix, Prime Video, and access to hundreds of other channels.

Most of the apps are too niche to be worth your time, but importantly, Roku has the widest variety of apps that you'll actually want to use compared to other streaming platforms. And unlike the Amazon Fire TV Stick, no one service is favored over the others.

In terms of performance, the Roku Streaming Stick 4K is more powerful than Roku's 1080p stick. During the test stream, content stabilized at 1080p within 5 seconds on a standard home Wi-Fi network, while it took about 10 to 15 seconds to reach 4K resolution on an office Wi-Fi network. Again, this may or may not be representative of what Roku can do in your home, but if your connection is up to the task of delivering 4K HDR content, so is the Streaming Stick Plus.
