Purchased this to replace older model which was failing to stream properly and had memory issues. This solved all of the problems I was having, was easy to set up and is much more capable than my previous Apple TV. My only complaint it the extremely sensitive directional pad on the remote control, which can cause you to stray very easily as you try to navigate within a video. Once you get used to that, it's a great unit!

Decided to upgrade my 1st gen 4k Appletv, had a couple of gift cards ans rewards, so glad I did, not a vast improvement, but still an improvement, in picture and sound quality, plus better response, whether regular streaming or using the Spectrum app, everything works great, plus I am future proof for awhile, plus it has the upgraded remote, but I still use my Harmony remote. Easy to set up.

I had an Apple TV way back a decade ago when they didn't support apps. I switched over to the Amazon Fire TV and used that on every TV forever, but now the Fire TV has become laggy and inundated with advertising. When they updated it recently to use full-screen ads as you turn the thing on, I unplugged it, filed a trade-in and went out and bought this more expensive Apple TV.
WOW is this better!!! The price is not quite double what I paid for the Fire TV Cube, but the quality and experience is 10 times better!!!
As soon as I signed into this thing with my Apple ID, it had everyone in my iCloud family listed as profiles, and it was so much easier to authenticate stuff using an iPhone alongside.
Everyone in the family immediately remarked how slick and quick the interface was. Not just the Home Screen, but within the apps we use as well. We're all pretty sure that Hulu buffers less when we're trying to watch live sports. We have gigabit fiber and both the Apple TV and Fire TV were connected via ethernet, but the Fire TV Cube had to use a USB adapter. That shouldn't be a factor though, I just think the Fire TV had too much overhead trying to snoop and figure out what ads to run.
Technically, I know that Amazon uses the Android OS and it used to be pretty fast but they bloated it with ads and tracking and Android just sucks if it's not been tuned to run on an expensive mobile device. Apple TV uses their own tvOS. All the apps have to be natively built for the platform and approved into the App Store, and it's just unarguably faster and better and less junky.
No sponsored tiles or grown-up stuff advertised to your kids, a zippy clean and fast interface, I can airplay to it from my phone, every app is natively slick and fast, it's just phenomenal. I want this on my bedroom TV now.

The Apple TV 4K (3rd generation, 128GB) is an incredible upgrade and easily one of the best streaming devices on the market. Apple has truly perfected the smart TV experience with a powerful, fast, and feature-rich device that’s built to last.
Right out of the box, setup is simple and seamless — especially if you’re already in the Apple ecosystem. You can use your iPhone to sign in and configure everything in minutes. The A15 Bionic chip under the hood makes everything incredibly fast and responsive. Apps launch instantly, navigation is buttery smooth, and streaming is flawless.

Bought the 3rd gen ATV 4K to replace the older 2nd gen ATV 4K and you can definitely notice the performance increase with the new A15 Bionic chip which replaces the older A12 chip in the 2nd gen ATV 4K. Scrolling through apps is so fluid and I've even noticed connecting to bluetooth devices like my AirPods Max and AirPods 2nd gen is even faster now- it really makes what was already the best streaming experience even better now!

Used this to replace the awful included OS in my old smart tv and horrendous remote. Excellent UX. Setup is super quick. Tiny footprint and power usage. High quality, responsive, aluminum remote. Seamlessly and intuitively works with ofher apple products — iphone as remote and just noticed it offered to connect to my airpods pro which is nice if you want to watch without disturbing your partner.

This is my 3rd Apple TV. I have them on my 3 televisions. This newest version of Apple TV allows you to interact with FaceTime so the FaceTime call is displayed on your TV. It works flawlessly. I have used Roku devices and they work great. It Apple TV is the next level. Apple TV merges your photos, music, and all your streaming channels in one place. It’s a nearly perfect product.

We watch everything through this device. We got rid of cable long ago and use YouTube TV as our primary television service but we also subscribe to Max, Disney +, Prime, Netflix… the point is with this device there is no need to change the input on your television. And if you have a 4K compatible television, this broadcast clearly in that without any issues; no delay, shutter, nothing to affect the display or sound.

This thing has a ton of memory and is really quick. It is much faster and more reliable than the firestick. Last yrs model is really food as well if you want to save some money
