Early Amazon Prime Day deals began this week and they added to the other tech deals we saw across the web. The first round of Prime Day promos included sales on the Eero 6 WiFi system and Blink security cameras, while the Roku Ultra was on sale for a record low of $69. Also, the Anova Precision Cooker Pro sous vide machine saw a whopping $200 discount, bringing it down to $199. Here are the best tech deals we found this week that you can still get today.

Roku Ultra

Roku

Roku’s most powerful set-top box, the Ultra, remains on sale for $69. It supports HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, and it also has a built-in Ethernet port so you can hardwire it into your setup. You’ll get Roku’s voice remote, too, which lets you search for TV shows and movies just by speaking.

Logitech Folio Touch for iPad

Logitech’s Folio Touch for the iPad Pro is one of our favorite alternatives to Apple’s Magic Keyboard and now it’s on sale for $130. That’s $30 off and close to a record low. While not as elegant as the Magic Keyboard, it provides a protective case for your iPad Pro and a comfortable keyboard with which to type. We also appreciate its relatively roomy trackpad and handy row of iOS shortcut keys.
