You can get the 64GB Apple TV 4K for $89.99 in this sale, down from $129.99, which is a new all-time low price. We haven't tracked any notable deals on the 2022 A15 Apple TV 4K in nearly a year, much less one as low as Verizon's sale.
Secondly, Verizon has the second generation HomePod for $174.99, down from $299.99. This is a massive $125 discount on the 2023 smart speaker, beating the traditional discounted price by nearly $100. This one is only available in Midnight.
Lastly, the carrier has a few buy one, get one half off deals going on right now on both AirPods and HomePod mini. AirPods under this deal include AirPods Pro 2, AirPods 3, and AirPods 2. All colors of the HomePod mini are available for the BOGO deal, and would effectively make each speaker about $75.

what advantage do you get using Apple TV over say, built in Roku smart TV?
NO ADS
smoothest UI with no lag, better quality versions of apps, better hardware, better remote, less flakey airplay, icloud, more support for codecs, on and on.
smart Tv's are garbage and should never be connected to wifi. as soon as you connect the TV lags lol
what advantage do you get using Apple TV over say, built in Roku smart TV?
No ads no tracking etc. You can also use the apps, airplay. If you are happy with the Roku stick with it. If it's laggy, or you want other apple features just get the Apple TV especially at this price. I forgot screen calibration for ones tv but you need an iPhone for that. If you have AirPods or AirPods Max, get the Apple TV for better 3d surround sound etc.

I bought a Roku (TCL) TV and the installer said it would be neat for about a year or so. Over time it will start to lag and get slow. He said at that point, you'll want to either look at an AppleTV or external Roku if you want to stick with them. The panel is still good though.
