Info on Roku TV model 40BA
I see that Walmart has a Roku TV with Model 40BA, but I can’t find any info on it. Does anyone know how it differs from the current model on the Roku website?
Ok, I think I found the difference.
Looks like from the Roku Support pages https://support.roku.com/article/10625174337047, the 40BA is listed as a 40" Full HD TV and comes with a simple Roku TV remote. (non voice remote) https://image.roku.com/c3VwcG9ydC1B/RBTV-40-QSG-2025.pdf
Looks like it is actually not in the Select Series like it was advertised on the Walmart website. The 40" Select series will come with a Voice Remote. https://image.roku.com/c3VwcG9ydC1B/RokuBrandedTV-SelectSeriesHD-QSG-Fall2023.pdf
Other than that though, specs look the same.
Thanks for the update. It looks like they must have just updated that page in the last day or 2. The support page previously only listed the 50BA, and had no mention of the 40BA. I guess that makes sense why it’s a bit cheaper. Hopefully that’s the only “downgrade” they made to the model.
Looks like the Select also has some additional ports (look at the different images in the previous links).
When looking at the actual lighting/backlight/resolutions specs though in both the Walmart and Best Buy pages, I didn't see anything much different. (possible, but just not advertised).
From all my searches though, I think Walmart may be the only ones carrying this Full HD TV. i didn't even know it existed before your post as Roku only made us aware of the Select, Plus, and Pro Series when they released them.
Wondering if this may be a new addition to the lineup.
