Not all technology is beneficial for everyone. For example, you might not need a one-wheel electric scooter or you might think the advent of glasses with built-in speakers will never be your jam, and that's all good. But smart home technology in particular can be helpful for most people.

If you stream shows or movies to your home's TV, you'll want a Bluetooth streaming stick. These small devices give you a dashboard to navigate to your favorite streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and MAX. Thanks today's deal at Amazon, you can snag the Roku Streaming Stick 4K for just $34, marked down from the normal price of $49.99. That's a 32% discount.

Her review of the two found the Roku Streaming Stick 4K to be significantly better in performance speed and user-friendly controls. "For me, Roku is very clearly the winner.

Some of the most beneficial smart home advancements have come in the category of robot vacuums. Thanks to today's deal, you can save $400 on our favorite Roomba model, the Roomba Combo j9+, spending $999 instead of the usual price of $1,399. While it's not an inexpensive robot vacuum by any means, it's an impressive robot that not only vacuums your floors but mops them too.
Mashable senior shopping reporter Leah Stodart is an expert on robot vacuums an found this model to the very best Roomba in 2024 and one of the only negatives she mentions is the high price, which is significantly discounted at Amazon this week.
In addition to the impressive performance both in vacuuming and mopping, the Roomba Combo j9+ is a dream when it comes to smart home tech since you can set it to clean on a specific schedule and forget about it for up to 30 days. Its charging dock also serves as a self-empty station that shouldn't need attention much more than once per month.
