Why wouldn’t you spend 30 more and get the latest and greatest from Costco?
Be aware that Gen2 devices will have increasing limited app support. (I recently replaced my parent’s Apple TV because the main app they use was updated and no longer supported it.)
Costco had 3rd gen 64GB for $100 before Thanksgiving
I got 3rd gen 128gb for $100 from Costco.
Anyone figure out what the extra storage does for you? You can’t store movies offline…
You can’t store movies offline. It’s for apps only
I wish companies would keep consistent and easily understandable product numbering. Tbh, I have no idea where this falls in the timeline of product releases.
There have only been 3 generations of the Apple TV 4K. This is the 2nd.
I looked it up. There’s been 8 versions of Apple TVs released.
In my house i have a 3rd gen, an HD, and two 4ks no idea which release. So when I see someone say “2nd gen” I’m wondering why they would pay for such an old device.
So, yeah, it would be nice if they called the current ones Apple TV 2023 or Apple TV 8.
I work @ Costco it was $99 for 3rd gen 4k last time i checked
Nope back up to $125 but it’s 3rd gen 64gb
And out of stock too
Wireless only?
I got mine for 99 at Costco couple days ago
Not anymore, I literally just started looking to buy one and it’s back up to full price everywhere….
I want aptv to add the vpn option
They did. Tvos 17 has VPN support.
Could’ve bought it yesterday from Apple for $25 off plus a $25 gift card.
It’s a crapshoot buying electronics from woot. They have a short warranty and you can have trouble returning defective gear.
Check Amazon for a similar price but for only a few dollars I’d suggest new.
No they have not released it yet. I am going to try the 7 day trial since I paid for ss for a year membership
I just got 3rd gen refurbs from apple doe $109 w/64gb
Congrats. You just got an old model. The non 4K one is on the 4th generation. The 4K one is on 2nd generation. Apple has super confusing names for these.

Can we side load apps into this?
Woot is trash. Costco is cheaper
Not cheap at all considering 3rd gen is 129
Just get a 3rd gen one. tvOS 17 is laggy on my Apple TV 4K 2nd gen
I’ll check I open today
