While streaming may be increasing in popularity, there are still plenty of people who prefer satellite radio. Just in time for last-minute holiday shopping, Grace Digital has announced its latest streaming radio, the SiriusXM Sound Station.

“By releasing a Wi-Fi table radio in collaboration with SiriusXM, we’re offering today’s generation of consumers a unique and easy way to stay connected to their favorite shows and channels, live events, concerts, and more,” Grace Digital CEO Greg Fadul said in a statement. “The SiriusXM platform has drastically increased over the years so to keep on trend with ensuring our customers have a full gamut of connectivity options, we wanted to be sure SiriusXM was on the roster.”

Despite the generally small size of the Sound Station, it features a large color display that can show channel information and even album art while playing. This also makes it easy for subscribers to customize their listening experience with the Sound Station’s MySXM feature. Up to 10 favorite channels can be set as well, making it easy to start listening immediately.

Like Grace Digital’s other radios and speakers, the Sound Station offers full-range sound with a built-in equalizer. The Sound Station can be set up anywhere in the user’s home by using Wi-Fi, or via a wired connection when using an optional Ethernet adapter. For those setting up the radio in a bedroom, multiple alarms with sleep and snooze timers are also included.

“This terrific new product from Grace Digital offers room-filling sound, a compact and modern design, and a vivid display to create a rich listening experience for our subscribers,” SiriusXM director of connected home product management Dave Horoschak said. “The Sound Station gives our listeners, many of whom listen to our content in the car and on their mobile devices, another option to enjoy our world class music and programming with high fidelity sound in their home, office, or anywhere an internet connection is available.”

The Grace Digital SiriusXM Sound Station retails for $130, and is available via the Grace Digital website and select retailers including Amazon.

Ring Video Doorbell — $70, was $100

Want to keep your home safer, communicate with outdoor strangers without opening your door, and catch high quality video footage of the outside of your home even when its dark? For only $70 you do, especially with a Ring Video Doorbell, one of our favorite smart doorbells. You can communicate with it directly via Alexa, too, as part of your smart home. This can mean speaking directly with the people outside or using a preset response built into your Ring Alarm. Or, if you don't want to be bothered — or are outside your home — you can have your alarm take a message. The setup is relatively easy, as the machine is wireless. While this does mean that the device uses a battery, you'll find that Ring Video Doorbells have longer lasting batteries than you might've guessed.

Don’t miss your chance to get a 50-inch TV for $200 today

The onn. 70-inch 4K Roku TV hangs on the wall as part of a home theater arrangement.

The graph of the standard TV size and the standard TV price is shaped like an X. As TVs get cheaper and cheaper, we all want to get bigger and bigger ones in our home theaters. A 50-inch TV is pretty much the smallest size you could want in your living room. That means they're very, very affordable. For instance, Onn.'s 50-inch 4K TV is normally only $238, even without TV deals.

Luckily, you can grab it even cheaper at Walmart, where they offer it for just $198. That's a $40 discount and brings this reasonably great and large TV in the sub-$200 range, and it even comes with a great smart TV platform, Roku, so you don't have to spend extra money on a streaming stick for a better experience. While there certainly are a couple of compromises regarding features to keep the price so low, they aren't deal-breaking, and it's well worth picking up if you don't mind a straightforward TV experience.
