Roku Streambar £59.99 at Argos

Argos and Very are currently selling the Roku Streambar at £59.99 which is a cracking price where usually it sells between around £99 to £125.

Don't know if other Retailers will follow and if this significant price reduction is because there is a new model on the horizon.

Would have been tempted at this price, but I don't need another Roku streamer or sound bar myself.

Also at the moment it seems like there is stock when checking my post code and surrounding post code areas.

Hi @sb64 

feel free to ignore  the advice I posted at the link below. It seems you've already followed it even before I posted , as I didn't realise you were in this topic as well until just now😁

I do not work for Now . I am simply a Now customer trying to help I am a Community Contributor This means that I know a lot about the service. But just like you I am still a customer. This means I cannot help you with issues that would involve looking into your account directly. A member of the now TV forum team or live chat will need to assist you with these issues.

No worries your advice can be useful to other people no harm done.

Pending any feedback from a user, I found this on Which? Not positive I'm afraid and rated by them as a Don't Buy, certainly on the sound side.

It got a half decent review from AVFourms back in 2020 and the main negative was lack of Bass which you would expect without a separate SubWoofer box.

Hopefully @sb64 is happy with the purchase (especially for £59.99).

Won't be taken the plunge myself, where I have far too many streaming devices.

Looking over on the Hotukdeals website it seems like Argos have acquired more stock of the Roku Streambar where in my region South Wales there is quite a few outlets now carrying stock again or if not order for next day.

Ive got one of those ( ( paid almost £40 more for it - and even then that was a deal) and I'm  not sure where the Which review summary is coming from.

 

Its obvious, that it wont sound as good as  a £200+ dedicated soundbar, even more so if you are comparing to to sound bars with dedicated sub woofers, however for less than £100 its good value, even more so at the Argos offer price.

 And it will sound much better than the sound you get from most mid to budget  Tv's .

Set up is also easy , and no harder than any other streaming device, plus it can also connect to ethernet if you buy a compatible ethernet adaptor - of which there are many (USB to Ethernet)
