Even with bad wifi it is able to play very smoothly with few connection issues (unless internet drops out, even then you have about a minute or two of content before the apple tv will stop). The best part is that it is very fast at f ast forwarding and rewinding and all sorts of scrubbing in network service. Its a very well rounded product with lots of fun surprises. It has become my go to device for TV (through sling), movies through iTunes and netlfix, and hub for music and videos with apple music and youtube.

If you have other apple products interconnectivity is a breeze! Simply have all the devices on the same network and you can use your phone as a remote, play music off your phone or mac on airplay, use airplay to mirror your phone or mac, and the list goes on! Unlike its predecessor, it supports 1080p at 60 frames per second, so the video more smooth and crisp than it used to be. It has thousands of apps and channels you can watch (most require subscriptions or a cable provider but such is life), and many awesome built in features such as Siri. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: refurbished | Sold by: umbertoblack I've tried a couple of games and you really need the Steelseries game controller. if like me you have Verizon Fios then you have to activate e ach app which is time consuming but not Apple's fault If you have cable then there is a decent chance that you'll only need to enter your credentials once for the apps such as PBS, ESPN, etc. The remote is slick and easy to use.Īnother neat thing is that if you have an iPhone or iPad you'll be able to use that keyboard when you need to type in text. TiVo can do the same but the number of apps are limited.

But the biggest advantage is that when you search for a movie or TV show it searches all the apps. What I like about the box is that it is easy to set up and use. Since I already have a number of Apple devices it was pretty easy to decide on the AppleTV. I have a TiVo and the apps are out of date.

Read full review.įinally a streaming box worthy of the name. I received my ATV 4 as a X-MAS gift so it was the best money I've never spent. More apps of course but I only use a few now but I'd like to see what's coming down the pike. I would like to see a downloadable browser one day, from what I've read I'm not sure that will happen. which wouldn't be so bad if the login didn't expire so quickly requiring a redo each time. With ATV, you have to set up each device to watch apps like NBC, ABC, etc. Download one app on Roku and the others get it on the next update. I would like to see all my ATV's in sync. The keyboard layout really sucks, it was much better in the previous versions.

I'm not ready to upgrade my TV so not a big issue for now. Here's what's missing and why I couldn't give it 5 stars. WIFI setup via your iPhone is a bonus, saves having to track down you WPA2 code. In the mean time I just stream what I need to from my iPhone which is no different than before. Most of the Video Apps I've used on my iPhone were available for download (Netflix, NBC, ESPN, etc.) and what's not available now I'm sure will be. Swiping to control most apps, games, etc. Tell Siri 'What did he/she say' and the program will automatically rewind 15 seconds with closed caption turned on. The addition of SIRI built into the remote is a must see, almost anything you can do on the ATV you can do with Siri. Hold the home button and the ATV will go into sleep mode and also turn on/off the TV. The ATV works just like the iPhone: Double click the home button which bring up running apps.

Infuse was only available on previously models via jail breaking.

I was able to download the Infuse app which allows me to watch steaming content off my NAS including ISO files. I love the new Apple TV 4, downloadable apps being the biggest selling point. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: new | Sold by: introduction2016 If it had that ability, I would have rated Apple TV 4th Gen 5 stars. I hope Apple can deliver the ability to do that. I absolutely hate not being able to fast forward through co mmercials. You cannot skip them as you can do with a DVR. The only negative aspect to Apple TV is commercials. There are also some good apps available too. Between Netflix and HOB Now, I have access to a wide range of movies. I can't do that with DirectTV I can only record what is current. The other thing I like is the ability to watch any episodes of a show, going back to when the show first aired. The two best things I like about Apple TV are Siri control with both the Siri control via the Siri Remote, and the same control with the newest version of the Apple Remote TV App for IOS. The Apple TV 4th Generation was easy to setup, easy to add my iPhone as a Remote, easy to add my Logitech One Remote, and wireless Apple Keyboard.
