The item model number for the Roku 4 is 4400R. It is characterized by its frame dimensions of 6.5 x 6.5 x 0.8 inches and weight of 0.9 pounds.

Soon after the release of the Roku 4 in October 2015, Roku sent notification emails to select Roku 4 owners, informing them of a recall of their device and offering to replace it. This recall was likely due to some Roku 4 devices missing a thermal pad between the CPU and heat sink, which caused overheating of the device.
