Love my Apple TV streaming device. Easy to use and produces quality pictures

I bought this Apple TV on a friend’s recommendation and because I own an IPhone and find it’s interface easy to use. For at least the last 5 years I have streamed using either my Roku or my TiVo. I have the TiVo as I primarily watch OTA programs. I recently bought a new tv with google tv as it’s smart tv platform. The TiVo noticeably loads and responds the slowest of these streaming devices. I have had the TiVo for the longest of the devices so probably strongly out of familiarity the interface is the easiest for me. The Roku I have owned nearly as long as the TiVo. I used it as my primary streaming device until recently purchasing the new tv and appletv. The Roku interface is my preference of all 4 devices and I found it’s remote simple and the the easiest learn. The google tv is my new tv’s operating system interface. I have only had this tv for about 2 weeks longer than the appletv. The google tv responds very quickly compared to the TiVo and Roku but the appletv seems to respond even much more quickly than the google tv. I haven’t used the google interface much as I still primarily watch ota using the TiVo. So I have not used the google tv interface and remote enough to have any opinion of use. The appletv seems to process so much faster than the other devices I have mentioned. When loading any of my streaming services they nearly instantly appear. I still haven’t owned this very long and as I said don’t stream alot. My impression so far of the interface is it is apple and having owned only iPhones very familiar and easy to navigate. The remote is simple physically a similar simple minimalist buttons as the Roku remote. I am experiencing a slow learning curve mastering the main combination cursor and/or mouse button. It’s used as the primary navigation for the interface and as the forward,reverse,pause,play and etc. for streaming. It takes some finesse to not get unintended responses. I haven’t spent more than 20 hours streaming and spent a couple hours playing and exploring. When streaming one feature the appletv does l know my Roku or TiVo won’t do is skip back or forward by 10 seconds like a dvr. The other major preference I am having is owning an iPhone gives options to share apps.music,etc. Overall the appletv 4K will be my go to streaming device. At this point as I haven’t owned it for long this is based on it’s impressive processing speed. As I don’t stream that much I don’t believe l needed this in any way but I so far it’s my preference and each time I use it I am finding that large button does something I hadn’t learned it could do.

I upgraded to this one from a first gen Apple TV and it is a world of difference. It integrates seamlessly with my Sony TV and receiver to turn everything on and off with one touch of the power button on the updated remote. The touchpad part of the arrow buttons makes scrolling through videos and movies so much easier than having to click through with a button each time.

Set up was easy, picture quality is great. The remote is much better.

Fantastic Apple TV is so fast and reliable. I like the new remote control.

Love the Apple TV 4K. Excellent quality and the picture is amazing. Also love the apps and ease of use.

Upgrade from the previous 4K model, mostly for the new remote for my mother since she has trouble with the track pad, and i just kept the "old" remote and kept the newer Apple TV. It's definitely a lot smoother and zippier than before but nothing you can't live without. I got it because it was on sale and the standalone remote is pricey itself so might as well get the whole apple TV.

Best streaming player by a mile. Expensive but worth it. New remote is premium and much improved.

Works great! Will definitely be purchasing another, Really love the new remote. Easy to handle.

Small and powerful. Great picture quality and very easy to set up and use.

The Apple TV is the only device to consider when cutting the cord to major cable networks. Not only that but it made turning on / off our entertainment system a one button process which was desperatley needed for my wife. The added surprise was the fact that Apple iPhones have a remote built into them for use with the Apple TV. Just buy it.
