The editors liked

  • 1080p movies & Netflix
  • Control everything with iOS devices
  • Home Sharing
  • Ridiculously low power consumption
  • Size and price
  • Fast performance
  • Great streaming quality
  • Few cords involved
  • 4K and HDR
  • Simple interfac
  • Only player that works with iTune
  • AirPlay beams media from Apple devices
  • It's the only option for streaming iTunes content
  • Apple Music
  • HomeKit
  • And AirPlay further extend the box's usefulness
  • App-driven home screen is easy to understand
  • Fairly cheap for a high-end set-top box
  • Only platform that still lacks voice search
  • Full 1080p HD (yes
  • Please!)
  • Incredibly easy setup
  • User-friendly icon-based interface
  • New features
  • Same $99 price
  • The Apple TV is still the exact same minimalist masterwork—deserving of a spot at the MoMA someday. It's unchanged from its prior form
  • And just as easy to set up
  • Plug in the juice
  • Hook up the HDMI
  • And you're in business. The equally minimalist remote
  • Supports 1080p output. Clean
  • Attractive
  • Easy-to-use interface. Excellent iPad
  • IPhone
  • And iPod touch integration.
  • The Siri Remote with touchpad works great
  • Universal search finally makes it easier to locate content
  • The App Store and iCloud integration are off to a promising start
  • Game controller support is already better than on iOS
  • Dead-simple user interface and setup
  • Unobtrusive design
  • AirPlay makes screen mirroring a snap
  • 1080p
  • Finally. Purchases from iTunes are stored in iCloud for syncing across devices. If you’re an iTunes Match subscriber
  • You can stream your tunes and playlists from iCloud. Use AirPlay to stream from any iOS device
  • Or from any iTunes library on your network. Browsing and navigation is mostly painless
  • 1080p support added. Capable streaming from Macs
  • PCs
  • And iOS devices. Internet content from Netflix
  • MLB
  • NHL
  • NBA
  • And more. Streams photos from Flickr
  • ICloud Photo Stream
  • And MobileMe.
  • The Apple TV lets you stream all the video content in the iTunes Store to your HDTV
  • With purchases stored in the cloud. Netflix
  • Hulu
  • HBO
  • YouTube and dozens of other online services are available
  • Plus music
  • Videos
  • And photos can be streamed from iOS

The editors didn't like

  • Requires other Apple devices
  • No 1080p24 support
  • No TV apps
  • 1080p a bit too compressed
  • No YouTube app available
  • User interface can feel cluttered
  • Fewer content choices than competitor
  • No universal search capabilit
  • Not much free content
  • Outdated hardware translates to long loading times
  • Limited app selection
  • Remote is overly simplistic and depends on line of sight
  • Content is limited to iTunes and select partners (no VUDU or Amazon Instant Video)
  • Most of the way ain't all of the way. Streaming a file the size of a full Blu-ray movie just isn't feasible with today's internet speeds
  • Unless you're using the WiFi at Los Alamos or sleeping with the cable guy or something. Apple has to cut corners usin
  • Streaming media services are limited. No Hulu Plus
  • Siri doesn't support the App Store or Apple Music —yet
  • Why no iOS Remote app support?
  • At $149
  • Some may want to wait for more cord cutting incentives
  • Where to buy
  • The fourth-generation Apple TV is priced at $149 equipped with 32GB of storage and $199
  • Remote lacks QWERTY keyboard
  • Needs line of sight
  • Lacks major streaming services like Hulu Plus
  • Pandora
  • Sometimes sluggish browsing
  • Requires iTunes for network sharing
  • Similarlypriced boxes (like the Roku 2 XS) offer more streaming services. Can’t remove or rearrange icons in main menu. 8GB storage is for caching only
  • And you can’t sideload content through the microUSB port. Remote is too simple and too easy to lose — luckily
  • The iOS Remote app is a solid substitute. No analog ports
  • Digital connections only.
  • Can’t add more content channels or customize interface. Can’t connect it to a TV without HDMI.
  • Lacks the app store
  • Improved remote and voice functionality of the 2015 Apple TV. The competing Roku 2 and 3 offer more content sources (including Amazon Instant) and cross-platform search. And the Apple TV platform is less of a streaming standout if you

  • Användarvänlig, AirPlay, 1080p, Billig
  • Stöder inte alla vanliga filformat, Inga extra appar
  • Det finns saker som Apple TV INTE kan. En del vanliga filmformat stöds inte – det handlar bland annat om MKV, AVI och DivX – och man kan inte heller komma åt sin NAS (nätverkshårddisk) trots att Apple TV just är en nätverks- och streaming-baserad mediespe...

  • Abstract:  Apple er glade i å oppgradere produktene sine. De liker å beholde utseendet og heller oppgradere tingene på innsiden, som prosessorer og minnekort og programvare. De gjør selvfølgelig ikke dette med alle produkter, og visse produkter blir byttet ut oftere...

  • Brugervenlig og hurtig, Apps mulighed
  • Ingen Siri stemmesøgning, Ikke 4K support
  • Fremtidens TV skriver Apple om det nye Apple TV. Ingen tvivl om at den ny Apple TV medieafspiller er en opgradering i forhold til den gamle model, men at kalde det fremtidens TV, synes vi nu er lige lovligt højtflyvende.Apps er det væsentlige nye for os d...

  • Det ville været ekstra fedt, hvis TV 2 Play og Viaplay blev tilgængelige som en apps. Til gengæld kan Apple-entusiaster glæde sig over, at Apple sendte deres seneste pressemøde, hvor iPad Mini blev fremvist, til Apple TV i Full HD.En gang om året dukker i...

  • Apple TV er lidt specielt ved at binde brugeren til iTunes og at skulle have en Apple ID. Bruger man iTunes, er det dog en fantastisk brugervenlig tilgang til medieindhold. Det er dog ikke den mest featurerige afspiller...

  • Abstract:  Sammen med den nye iPad 3 har Apple også valgt at opdatere sin Apple TV-boks med ny indmad og software. Selve boksen ligner sig selv og er stadigvæk kreeret af sort plastik, men inden i har firmaet udskiftet A4-processoren med den nyere A5-variant. W...

  • Brugervenlighed, Airplay, 1080p kvalitet, Styring med iPhone/iPad, Meget lavt strømforbrug, Størrelse og pris
  • Låst til Apple's økosystem, Ingen 1080p24 support, Ingen tv-apps, 1080p iTunes stadig ikke spitzenklasse
  • Den nye Apple TV med 1080p er designmæssigt fuldstændig identisk med den foregående. Der er tilføjet en ny brugerflade, når den tilsluttes Tv-skærmen, samt muligheden for at afspille 1080p-videoindhold. Samme fjernbetjening medfølger, og samme Remote-a...
