The new Apple TV 4K now has even more competition.。

Roku just unveiled a new lineup of streaming players, including a new 4K and HDR-ready streaming stick that costs just $69.99.。

The Roku Streaming Stick is an updated version of the company's streaming stick that adds 4K and HDR streaming at up to 60 frames per second.。

Though it maintains a similar form factor as previous streaming sticks, Roku changed up the design a bit. The wireless receiver has been moved from within the stick itself to the power cord, in order to improve its performance and range. Roku says the Streaming Stick can get four times the wireless range as last year's streaming stick.。

The company is also updating its higher-end 4K streaming player, the $99.99 Roku Ultra, which has the same streaming features as the Streaming Stick , but adds an ethernet port and micro SD card slot.。
