Whether you're looking to get a new TV, replace those ancient headphones, zhush up your wardrobe or upgrade that mattress that's older than you'd like to admit, we've got the deal for you. Here are some of the most spectacular Anti-Prime Day deals. On your mark, get set....shop!
Save on TVs
On sale for $200, down from $228, the Hisense 40-inch Class Full HD Roku Smart LED TV is undeniably sleek — with a near edge-to-edge 43-inch display (more picture, less frame). With an HD resolution at 1080p and DTS True Surround Sound, you’ll essentially have a movie theater-like experience at home, with colors that pop.
The built-in Roku streamer gives you instant access to thousands of video streaming channels, including Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, HBO Max, Prime Video, Hulu and ESPN+. It also has a few smart home features like voice search for hands-free navigation. That’s right: You can find your favorite TV shows and movies, just by speaking them into existence.
"Great TV. Once I selected 'theater sound' the clouds parted and there was entertainment bliss — OK, maybe that's a bit extra, however, the sound did vastly improved," shared a delighted five-star reviewer. "Perfect size for me. Easy setup and operation."

Amazing discounts on headphones and earbuds
The Beats Solo Pro Headphones sync to just about any smartphone or laptop via Bluetooth, delivering rich audio and heart-thumping bass. Super sleek, the pro-level headphones come in Black, Gray, Ivory and Red. They’re noise-canceling, so you can block out just about all background and ambient noise to enjoy your favorite music and podcasts.
"These beats are so pretty. They sound amazing and definitely block out background noise," raved a savvy Walmart shopper. "They charge and are compatible with iPhones. I didn't find them to be low what so ever. They come in their original box, charger, case, stickers and key ring...No signs of wear, they are a little snug but it seems like it's because they're new...I'm just so happy with my purchase."
The Beats have up to a whopping 40 hours of battery life per charge, so you don’t have to be tethered to a wall outlet all day long. In fact, they pump out a solid stream of music with top-notch audio for nearly two days. This is pretty impressive, considering that most wireless headphones tap out after about 30 hours.

Major markdowns on smartphones and tablets
On sale for $200 (was $230), the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 weighs just over a pound and features 32GB of storage (expandable up to 1TB via microSD card). That's got it all over Apple’s entry level tablet, which isn’t expandable. And unlike the iPad, the Tab A7’s 10.4-inch display has a full HD widescreen for immersive viewing.
Also out-Apple-ing Apple? The A7's camera set is better than the one that comes with the iPad. It has an eight-megapixel selfie cam with a five-megapixel rear shooter on the front for video calls. "Mostly use for mobile gaming. Tried to play PS4 remote play, and it worked," reported a satisfied gamer. "Sound is great and build quality is better than iPad. Speed is seamless."
Score the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 in gray and gold.

On sale for $30 (was $60), The Last of Us Part II for PlayStation 4 is set five years after the first game and follows Ellie and Abby as they continue to survive in a post-apocalyptic United States. This is one of the best games of 2020 and it’s half off at Walmart.
“I have played it three times now,” shared a delighted gamer. “On each play through, I found something new, which I most likely missed because of the insane attention to detail in this game. It all started to make sense after my second play through. I think that The Last of Us Part II is one of the best storytelling masterpieces out there.”

So many smart-home savings
The Roku Express 4K+ — on sale for an all-time low price of $29, down from $39 — gets you access to HBO Max, Hulu, Netflix, Disney+ and much, much more. It’s a must for older TV sets that don't have built-in streaming, or for people who've grown weary of watching Schitt’s Creek or Emily in Paris on a tiny tablet, laptop or phone screen. One of the brand's most powerful devices, the Roku Express 4K+ turns any TV with an HDMI port into a smart TV. It also supports Wi-Fi for an HD and 4K Ultra HD picture quality. And shoppers love it more than Amazon's Fire TV Stick too.
"Bought this to replace my aging Fire TV Stick and I couldn't be happier," raved a savvy Walmart shopper. "The operation is fast and responsive, the interface is intuitive, and the remote very functional. I don't even need my tv remote anymore. Best of all, Roku never tried to funnel me to their proprietary app or try to sell me things! Also, the price is right!"

Stunning deals on vacuums
On sale for $148 (was $299), the Shark ION Robot Vacuum RV750 is designed to tackle all sorts of household surfaces, unlike other devices that just suck up dirt and grime and ‘get stuck’ against a wall or under furniture. We consider it the jack-of-all-trades of floor cleaning.
This smart little guy uses a navigation system to map your home’s floor landscape, so it doesn’t bump into walls, scratch up furniture or plummet down stairs. With up to 90 minutes of battery life per charge, it can sweep up your hardwood floors and then switch to carpets and tiles at a moment’s notice, plus it can also be controlled and scheduled via its smartphone app or Alexa.
“So far so great! I really like this little machine, and it does a wonderful job cleaning,” raved a five-star reviewer. “It comes around so many times that it makes it hard to leave anything behind. It's pleasantly quiet and was easy to set up. So glad I went with this product and not the competitors. Worth every penny. I just don't know why I didn't buy it sooner!”

It has 4GB of memory, 64GB of on-board storage, and its powerful Intel Core i3 processor makes navigating from app to app quick and seamless — go from Google Docs to Zoom to Netflix in no time.
Shoppers love it all, not to mention the C340's 10-hour battery life. "A terrific computer. I was online and had downloaded all my old files and programs within 30 minutes of opening the box," shared a savvy Best Buy shopper. "The speed is great, the imagery sharp, the sound divine. And it looks cool...I use this primarily for streaming movies and other relatively simple tasks, but I know others who use it for much more."
