The other impressive deal this year is the discount on Amazon's answer to Samsung's The Frame art TV — it's called the Ember Artline, comes with a stylish frame in the box (unlike Samsung's), and you don't need a subscription to access art to display on it.

Did you know that the World Cup is streaming in 4K on BBC iPlayer? You could be missing out — here's how to see if your TV supports it and if not, the Roku Streaming Stick 4K and PS5 have you covered

✇TechRadar - All the latest technology news

Did you know that you can stream World Cup 2026 matches in 4K on BBC iPlayer? Well, you can — it's just not entirely obvious as to which devices actually support the feature. What is certain is that not all of them do — and your TV may not be among them.

While it would be useful to have a list of which of the best TVs and other devices support 4K for the World Cup, there isn't one. Instead, BBC says the easiest way to check if your device supports 4K content on iPlayer is to go to BBC iPlayer app itself and stream some 4K content, then look for the 'UHD' logo. If it appears, then your device supports it: hooray! If not, then unfortunately you won't be able to watch the World Cup in 4K on your current device.

If you want a list of 4K shows on BBC iPlayer to check, there's one here, but some quick names are Blue Planet II, SAS Rogue Heroes and Doctor Who (the latest series). If the UHD logo doesn't appear in the listing for one of the shows, then your device doesn't support it.

Thankfully, there are two devices that do support 4K streaming on BBC iPlayer: the Roku Streaming Stick 4K and the PS5. The Roku is a cheap upgrade to your TV that will allow 4K streaming on iPlayer and while the PS5 is pricier, it's a multimedia system that can obviously play games and 4K Blu-rays, as well as supporting most of the best streaming services.

And just in time for Amazon Prime Day, there are deals available for both devices.

Today's best Roku Streaming Stick 4K deal

The Roku Streaming Stick 4K supports 4K resolution and Dolby Vision HDR, and supports major streaming apps such as Netflix, Disney Plus and Prime Video, as well as major UK apps such as BBC iPlayer. This deal knocks the £10 off, taking it down to £39.99. I've noticed it for cheaper at Amazon, but these listings seem to be from third party sellers I would avoid. View Deal

Today's best PS5 deals

The cheapest way to pick up a brand new PS5 right now is the PS5 Slim Digital Edition at Joybuy for £419. Obviously this version doesn't come with a disc drive, so you'll need to buy the optional one for £69.99, or download your games digitally. View Deal

The premium PS5 Pro is best acquired at EE right now in the UK, with the retailer knocking 45 pounds off the console's list price. We predict the PS5 Pro could be the definitive way to play GTA 6, given Rockstar's close relationship with Sony, so this is our top pick for the console to play the game on. View Deal
