Source: en.wikipedia.org (read 2026-06-15) STALE · 2026-06-15 · corroborated by roku.com (read 2026-06-15). Wikipedia Roku article confirmed: processor Realtek 1315PR, 4 GB storage, 1 GB RAM, 4K/60fps, HDR10+/HDR10/HLG (note: Dolby Vision NOT listed for Express 4K+ in Wikipedia spec table, unlike Streaming Stick 4K+), WiFi 5 (802.11ac dual-band), no built-in ethernet, model 3941, released May 2021. Roku product page (roku.com) redirected to 404; Wikipedia is primary source. MSRP $39.99 is the widely-reported launch price. The corroborating page this record cited (https://www.roku.com/en-us/products/players/roku-express-4k-plus) is gone: on 2026-09-11 it returned 404, both from a residential connection and from a datacenter on another continent — so the page is gone rather than withheld from one asker. This record therefore no longer claims an independent second witness for its figures. The page the figures were read from, en.wikipedia.org, still answers.
