If you don't have a smart TV equipped with a handy streaming platform like Roku or Fire TV, a streaming device is an easy plug-and-play option to access thousands of streaming apps. One of the best streaming devices is currently on sale for a great price at Amazon. The Roku Ultra is discounted to $79, down from its usual $100 price.

The Roku Ultra is capable of streaming in HD, 4K, and HDR, making it an ideal choice for those with 4K TVs. It has a really simple setup; you simply plug the included HDMI cable from your TV to the small Roku box and connect it to your home network. From there, you can use the included remote to download your favorite streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, and Disney Plus. The remote even has shortcut buttons for those three popular apps as well as Sling TV.

The Ultra's remote has a couple more features than lower-priced Roku devices. It includes two programmable shortcut buttons, which you can set to apps you frequently use. The side of the remote is fitted with a headphone jack for private listening. As an added bonus, the Roku Ultra comes with JBL earbuds.

We recently rounded up the best streaming devices you can buy today. While we didn't include the Roku Ultra, its omission was solely because of price. At $79, however, the most versatile Roku device is definitely worth a look. And if you're in need of Father's Day gift ideas, the Roku Ultra could be the perfect gift. If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get your Roku Ultra on June 19 with free shipping. Without Prime, you can still get free shipping, but it won't arrive until June 24 or June 25.
