"Grab a Roku streaming stick for next to nothing, and suddenly you've got a clean, dependable way to stream your favorite content and move through apps with ease. Under normal circumstances, the 2025 Roku Streaming Stick HD sells for around $30. Right now, though, Amazon is offering a limited-time discount that drops the price by almost half, bringing it down to just $16."
"This is the bare bones Roku streaming stick. This one doesn't support 4K or HDR, but that's not such a bad thing. The TV you're putting it on might not support those either, so why pay extra for support you can't actually take advantage of? Plus, so much content is only available in up to 1080p anyway so you're really not missing out much."
"See at Amazon The Roku streaming stick is super low profile. It's compact design allows it to just plug into an HDMI port on the back of your TV. It's small enough that it won't rudely block the other HDMI slots so you can still use them all for consoles or cable boxes or whatnot. The TV is also it's source of power, so it won't be taking up a valuable outlet along your power strip either."
Many living-room TVs lack modern smart features or have unwanted manufacturer interfaces, making external streamers appealing. The 2025 Roku Streaming Stick HD is an inexpensive upgrade that typically retails around $30 but is currently discounted to about $16. The stick is a basic HD-only model without 4K or HDR support, which suits many non-4K TVs and much 1080p content. The compact HDMI plug-in design draws power from the TV, preserves adjacent HDMI ports, and avoids using an outlet. The included remote provides volume and power controls and a voice search function for convenient navigation.
