    Nice! I love this version. The best part is since they used a beast of a chip it will be useable for years and years! I’m seriously considering picking up a second one since I gave my one of roommates my Gen 1 version for their room, and I miss having one in my bedroom.

    You won’t regret this amazing thing.

    I’ve had so many of these from various companies and I was skeptical about buying this one.

    Because I have other Apple products I went for it and it’s the best one I’ve used. Being able to use my phone for the keyboard, how quick everything is and using Siri is amazing.

    its amazing. only thing that’s bothering me is this weird thing with spotify where the playback ALWAYS pauses at ALWAYS around the same time towards the end of a song. right around where a notification for the next song shows up.

    5 months in, still no solution 🫠🫠🫠

    I like using the AppleTV to do my apple fitness workouts - ie…yoga, meditation. also, I like using my iPhone for the remote rather than the one that come with the AppleTV

    Switch resolution to 4k SDR (instead of leaving it as Dolby vision). And then there’s frame rate matching and something else to turn on. I just got mine three days ago and almost every YouTube video I watched has this same tip

    At first, I didn’t care that much for it. We had the latest Fire TV device (well, still do) and after we got it we converted to HomeKit. Now, I love it. The simplicity, lack of ads…I would like a couple more buttons for Netflix and Prime and maybe a customizable one or two. And would like the buttons backlit. Overall, it’s the most used one now and I love the doorbell video showing up on the TV when it is on.

    The best Apple product they have ever made!I would say calibrate the picture with your iPhone,and also calibrate the audio.youll see Apple tech on a new level and it actually helps the experience!

    Is there any benefits in streaming apps picture quality? Compared to tv’s own apps.

      I mean not that of a noticeable difference but the overall experience of the UI is so fluid you will actually hesitate to use another tv
