Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have being using the original 2017 Apple TV 4K streaming box and its been fantastic! But I was ready for an upgrade so I tried out the 2022 Apple TV 4K and I have been a fan! I won’t go into all the details, but just why I think it’s a worthy upgrade: PROS: - The box is actually smaller and fanless than the 2017 model, definitely nice to be quieter on that front. - I love the new remote as well! Still has the touchpad functionality but comes with a better build and the “power” button controls my TV, soundbar, and Apple TV at the same time. Plus I really like how the remote charges via USB-C - Once you set it up, the Apple TV is definitely quicker and I actually think the picture looks a little better as well. This is probably due to its improved HDMI 2.1 port as well as some software upgrades. - On that, I love how it is future proof since it supports HDR 10+ as that standard rolls out to compete with Dolby Vision. As well as this box supports “Matter” for an improved Smart Home experience as well. CONS: - It still remains as one of the most expensive streaming options on the market, but it works insanely well and I think its well worth it for those who are using it everyday. BOTTOM LINE: - As someone who only watches TV/Movies via the Apple TV, I can firmly say this is the best Streaming device on the market. The Apple TV 4K supports high end formats like Dolby Vision, HDR 10+, and Dolby Atmos while also consistently providing a great streaming experience on apps like Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, Amazon Prime, YouTube TV, and Apple TV+. I think the 2022 generation adds some nice improvements to make this a reliable streaming device you can use all day, everyday.

“The Apple TV 4K 128GB is a technological masterpiece. From the moment I turned it on, I was impressed by its speed, thanks to the A15 Bionic chip that makes everything super smooth. The picture quality is simply stunning, with support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ bringing out every detail on the screen. Plus, the sound with Dolby Atmos takes the experience to a whole new level, making it feel like you’re in a movie theater. What I loved the most is how seamlessly it integrates with other Apple devices. Using my iPhone as a remote or accessing my iCloud photos and videos directly is so convenient. It’s also great as a HomeKit hub, making smart home control effortless. Overall, this is a premium device worth every penny. If you’re looking for the best streaming experience and want something that perfectly fits into the Apple ecosystem, this is it. Highly recommended!”

I like the price, the subtle but noticeable upgrade. It feels a bit more snappy than my 2021 4K 64GB version, but I DON'T like the cheap feeling and less weighty feeling of this 3rd Gen. I'm nitpicking there but it just feels like a toy compared to the 2021 version. Enough about that! The introduction of the A15 chip, HDR10+ & Thread Support is very much welcome! My wife noticed a slight improvement in picture quality, I believe her.. as I did see a minor improvement in watching Media. Overall, if you have the previous version, honestly... Don't get this if you're happy with it, unless you want the latest from Apple. It's not breaking the bank, but it's also not necessary if you're satisfied with the 2021 version. Also if you must get the 3rd Gen, get the one with Ethernet as I did.

The Apple TV is nothing short of incredible. I went to best buy yesterday in person to get it. I was glad that they still had it in stock! I was so happy. I got the 128 GB storage option because 64 isn’t a lot of storage for anything anymore, at least not for me. I might download some games and play them with a controller so it will take up space so i got the higher storage option to be safe. Ethernet also comes with the 128 GB storage option. I have to do more research on it, because I’m still not quite sure what that is. The apple tv also works well with all my apple products, seamless connectivity!

This latest iteration of Apple's set top streaming device is its best...by far. The A15 Bionic processor and the new Siri Remote make this the fastest, most feature laden and easiest to use and control Apple TV yet. But to get the most out of it you would be wise to check out some of the really excellent reviews of this device on YouTube. One of the best I've found is this one on a channel called "Digital Trends": "Apple TV 4K Features You Aren't Using (but should)". So many cool, useful, powerful features...this video will tell you exactly how to take advantage of them. Another tip: When watching a video, if you missed a line of dialog simply use Siri to replay the last 15 seconds by engaging Siri and saying, "What did he/she/they say?". Siri will turn on CC and replay the last fifteen seconds of the video, then turn off CC and play the remainder of the video.

This has been one of my best purchases. You get great use out if this product especially for the price. Over the past few months of use, this thing has been super smooth, not laggy AT ALL, super sleek, and gives my room a cool vibe. The Siri Remote has been so useful especially when searching for things, or asking to play a song etc. This product is also super easy to travel with, so I don’t have to sign into programs on random TVs in hotels, and other houses I vacation too. With months of use it still seems as if brand new, it’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a Tv streaming box, it connects with my Apple ID effortlessly and is super easy to set up, this is great product and I would 10/10 recommend and buy again for another device.

I am a Android and Windows User. I am very tech centric and honestly do not like Apple products, that is more of a morality issue for me [Right to Repair is very important for me]. The thing is I just can't argue when people say the AppleTV is the best streaming box, because just flat out, this device is fantastic. The speed and simplicity is great, and the device itself is extremely overpowered for what is does [This means it will last AWHILE]. I do home theater installs and I run into 6-8 year old AppleTVs that still work fine [not 4k but they still are snappy and work]. From what I have seen these devices have little to no ADVERTISING. In conclusion this device is the best device, to date, for streaming. You can't beat the user experience and that is coming from a user that can't use a chunk of the cool features because I own ZERO other Apple devices. This device is well worth the price tag. Helpful tips: -Have your Apple Account ready. If you purchase this at Bestbuy there is usually a mini Apple Help Desk where associates would be more than happy to help get that sorted. -BUY A HDMI, the Apple TV does not come with one. Do NOT overspend on a cable. Ignore the fancy marketing. Get a cable that is 4K compatible. At the end of the day copper is copper. -Lastly I hate the line keyboard the device starts with. In the settings there is a way to swap it. This is the first thing I did and I recommend you do the same.

Bought this for my BF for Christmas and we are in love with this device. Super efficient and accessible to stream all the shows we love, with no lagging and amazing quality. If your looking for a device to buy, its this one over Roku, 100%. Only recommendation is to buy a wall mount that includes an HDMI cable on amazon, as this device does not include an HDMI cord. Here is the link of the one we bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BV13X9XZ?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title Very sleek design, also love how the remote dictates for us, instead of struggling with typing. Came with a free remote cover after purchase. Additionally love the feature if you aren't using the tv for more than 15 minutes, it shuts itself off for you. 10/10 very satisfied with this Apple product as we are now an official Apple Household.

Switched to Apple TV after living with a basic Android TV box for years, what an upgrade. Especially worth it if you're already entrenched in Apple's ecosystem be it iCloud or iPhone. I only wish the remote had one more button that I could dedicate mapping to input switching on a TV/receiver/etc. (I have some devices that don't utilize CEC still and would prefer to use one remote) but you can remap the mute key to such a function using IR learning. You may want to keep it in a ventilated place as the unit does get noticeably warm and these newer generation Apple TVs rely entirely on passive cooling (no fan!) I have mine situated at the corner of my AVR and the temperature seems to be manageable, see attached picture.

This little black box solved our daily evening dilemma of trying to get our “smart” TV to play shows. After finally getting kids to bed, all we wanted to do was try and catch a quick grownup show, but we would end up spending between 10-15min just trying to get a show started on any given streaming platform on our Sony Bravia 4k TV. We’d often have to restart the TV just to get it to work, and we would end up just giving up sometimes because it was so buggy. I finally gave in and picked up the Apple TV, and I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner! I know that sounds cheesy, but seriously, it completely changed our TV experience. The UI is so fast and smooth; shows start up immediately now. Also, you can calibrate the color, sound, frame rates, etc… through the Apple TV. Now our TV looks better than it ever did with calibrated colors, and we have our sound bar and TV all running on the Apple TV remote. This thing just works. If you have “smart” TV that sucks, I would highly recommend picking up an Apple TV.

This is the Apple TV I was waiting for. Fast A15 processor that loads apps quickly and is also powerful enough to smoothly run games from the App Store. The remote is rechargeable through its USB-C port so you won’t have worry about buying batteries. It has built in Bluetooth so you can connect wireless headsets, speakers, and controllers for PS5 or XBox to it. Apple TV 4K also supports Spatial Audio, so if you have HomePods, AirPod Pro, or AirPods Max, you can take advantage of this feature.

It's hard to go back to Roku and other options because of how great the experience is, especially if you're in the Apple Ecosystem. Having Airpods, Photos, Music, Game Saves, Podcasts, Homekit Cameras/Notifications/Scenes and much more sync seamlessly is amazing. The screensavers on this thing are absolutely stunning and I love having them on with music in the BG to set the mood for gatherings and such. This Apple TV has the new A15 chip which is amazing for gaming with Apple Arcade and other games, what's great is the saves sync on a Per-Profile Basis so my wife, son and myself can all have our own saves for the games we have on there. These performance gains also translate to better general use, I find that I can have much more apps running in the background, making switching between way faster, and the apps also perform better than any other box I've used. For those TV quality enthusiasts, you can also color calibrate your display using your iPhone and interfacing with the Apple TV, this would normally cost a lot and take lots of time and special equipment.

Apple's lates version of their venerable Apple TV remains a solid choice and provides a worthy though not totally NECESSARY upgrade, especially if you already own the previous Apple TV 4K model. It looks almost exactly the same as the model it replaces, remaining just as much of a dust magnet. I do love the new remote control. It is bigger and way more manageable and I prefer the easier to spot silver color as opposed to the easy to lose in the sofa cushions black remote. The aerial screensavers remain an awesome way to show off your flatscreen TV, just wishing they would have provided more updated ones. Hopefully new ones will be coming shortly. I went with the 128 GB Ethernet model, but there is also the cheaper wi-fi only option available as well. While ease of use is good, there is a learning curve if you want to get the most out of it. Recommended!

Excellent device for streaming. The clarity in the picture is mind-blowing! It’s so seamless and fast when switching in between apps. It also works really well with the Apple ecosystem by being able to connect my other Apple devices to it. Better than any other streaming device or box I’ve ever used before. I’m absolutely satisfied with my purchase!

I love my new Apple TV! Better picture, more fluid movement, and colors are brilliant. Easy to set up. Good to have new technology with the A15 Bionic Chip.

Easy set-up, exceptional integration with iOS/Mac, beautiful UI, classy remote, undisputed top-tier voice assistant performance and skill set, serves as hub for Apple Homkit (includes Thread support), and top-tier processor for gaming performance and long-term smooth operation, and integration with dual HomePods to provide staggering Dolby Atmos performance for all devices on TV.

I’ve been using my basic smart TV as a home hub and Apple TV 4K has been an amazing change. I love the Siri Remote that can be used to play or go back in a show. Apple TV also connects to all my other streaming apps so I can stay in that app the entire time and browse Hulu, max, Disney +.

Absolutely love the Apple TV 4K device. Been using it for months now to watch shows and play videos from our iPhones. We used to watch videos using our gaming consoles, but the Apple TV box is much faster and easier to use for this purpose. It also works as a HomeKit hub, so we can control smart plugs and bulbs from the control center on our phones. Latest update added some nice features as well.

Very premium build. Really simple to use. Works with airpods to listen in privacy or not to wake up anyone. Music app is seamless between your iphone and this. Absolutely fast and not a clunky UI. I want one for every room of my house and garage. Got real tired of casting using the google chromecast, back to a remote thankfully. Much quicker and less of a hassle to use than casting with all the apps loaded on the apple tv. Lastly get a remote cover.

Everything I expected and more. Can’t say anything bad about it EXCEPT for this one issue that kept getting worse: the remote connection. Sometimes the remote would get “stuck” after I press a button like volume up. It would keep going up FAST like I was holding it until I pressed another button. Then it would get stuck on that button. I would have to cover the IR transmitter on the front of the remote to stop it. It would then stop. Weird. THEN I had an issue with it connecting at all. I had to unpair and then re-pair it. Annoying but that fixed the issue. I think…to be continued I guess
