There aren't really any devices with those names. So, I'm going to guess which device you actually have, and try to answer your question.

The Roku Premiere model 4620 is a 4K device (all 4K devices also support 1080 and 720) that was in production from October 2016 to September 2018. It looks like a Roku Ultra, both having the Roku 4 form factor. It was dual band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz). There is also a + version of this device.

The Roku Premiere model 3920 is a 4K device in production from September 2018 to May 2021. It looks like a Roku Express. It is 2.4 GHz only. There is also a + version of this device.

The Roku Express 4K model 3940 is a current device since May 2021 and is only sold at Walmart. This is a dual-band device. There is a + version of this that is widely sold.

Does that help? Or is there a more detailed question?
