It came out late last year. I believe it uses the Carta 1200 screen, but wasn't able to confirm that for sure. The bezels are much smaller than those on the 3, about the same size as the Clara. It has a faster processor (quad-core 1.5GHz), USB-C and 32GB of memory, but the stupid memory is partitioned again. 5GB for sideloading. B&N really needs to cut that out. That is what's put me off buying one.
Funniest part is that the promotional material on their site implies that all the space is also usable for sideloaded content, to quote them...
"32GB memory: 29.1 GB for NOOK Store content and side-loaded content"
They say it with no asterisks or anything of the sort, directly implying that every single gigabyte of on-board storage can be used for your own sideloaded content with no restrictions.

I am legit surprised nobody has tried to sue them for false advertising yet...
