When was Ultra Hardware last updated?

I have the 2018 version of the Roku Ultra.  If I purchased a Roku Ultra today, would I be getting better hardware (faster cpu, more memory, etc.), than the 2018 version?   Thanks, -Ron

Thanks everyone for the replies.  It looks like I have the Roku Ultra Bryan 2 4670X.  So the current model has a slightly faster cpu, same memory, and adds in Dolby Vision.

I think it's more than slightly faster. 🙂 The same operating memory, but 8 times the channel storage memory. Besides Dolby Vision, it adds HDR10+ (which is mainly supported by Samsung) and HLG (which my LG supports, along with DV). So it supports all the different versions of HDR, while yours only supports HDR10.
