I’ve been using the Apple TV for a few weeks now and it’s been awesome. The setup was super easy, and everything runs really smoothly. The picture quality is amazing, and it works perfectly with all my other Apple devices. I like how fast it loads apps and how clean and simple the interface is. The remote takes a little getting used to, but it works well once you do. Overall, a great purchase—definitely worth it if you’re looking for a reliable and high-quality streaming device.

The Apple TV 4K delivers one of the most fluid and responsive streaming experiences available today. From the moment you power it on, the interface feels snappy and polished. Animations glide seamlessly, menu transitions are instantaneous, and apps launch without the slightest lag. Apple’s A15 Bionic chip ensures that even when switching between high-resolution video, games, or multitasking with different apps, performance remains consistently smooth.
Streaming in 4K HDR is handled effortlessly, with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support providing a rich, cinematic experience. Fast-forwarding or rewinding content feels incredibly precise, with the scrubber moving in real time and the image preview updating instantly. Even navigating large streaming libraries or scrolling through image-heavy menus is handled without stutter.
The Siri Remote complements the fluidity with highly accurate touch controls and quick responsiveness, making browsing and app-switching feel natural and immediate. Unlike many other streaming boxes that can become sluggish over time, the Apple TV 4K maintains its speed thanks to strong optimization and powerful hardware.
Overall, the Apple TV 4K stands out for its unparalleled smoothness, making it a joy to use whether you’re watching movies, streaming sports, or playing games. It’s a premium device that matches its price point with performance that feels effortlessly fluid.

I wanted to take a moment to share my appreciation for the Apple TV 4K Wi-Fi that I recently purchased from your store. The device has exceeded my expectations in both performance and usability.
The picture quality is stunning, the interface is smooth, and the Wi-Fi connection is reliable and fast. It has truly elevated my home entertainment experience. I also appreciate how seamlessly it integrates with other Apple devices in my home, making it both convenient and enjoyable to use.
Thank you for continuing to provide high-quality products and excellent service. I look forward to shopping with Best Buy again in the future.

The latest version of the Apple TV 4K is an outstanding streaming device that combines top-notch picture quality with a sleek, user-friendly interface. It supports 4K HDR with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, providing an immersive viewing and listening experience. The new A15 Bionic chip ensures smooth performance and quick load times for apps and games. I found the redesigned Siri Remote is more intuitive, with a touch-enabled clickpad for easy navigation. The device has seamless integration with other Apple services and devices, plus a vast selection of apps from the App Store. I have owned every version of the Apple TV and this model is the best by far.

This is the third Apple TV device I’ve purchased. I’m a big fan of them as they incorporate nicely with all my other Apple devices. Easy to set up. Easy to use. New weekly screen savers if you want them. A really great option for taking your entertainment with you instead of signing into your services away from the house and forgetting to sign out.

Purchased to replace many failing Roku streaming devices.
I had owned an Apple TV from 2012 until around 2017. The Amazon Fire Stick had just came out, and the Roku was just coming around. With this, I purchased both. The Apple TV definitely wins between those two.
My first Roku, lasted me about 4 years, and I was very happy with it, and then I purchased around 5 new ones every year just to replace the previous one.
I have to say that the Apple TV has the BEST picture, and BEST reliability. It was easy to setup, and I had a better experience setting up than my previous Roku devices.
I recommend this beautiful piece of equipment to everyone.

I wish I would have gotten one of these so much sooner. If you are an Apple user, it creates a truly seamless viewing experience. It’s extremely user friendly, the picture and sound quality are incredible. Highly recommend, I want one for all of my TVS now!

uy, and it’s been a game-changer for my home entertainment setup! The picture quality is stunning, with crisp 4K resolution and support for HDR and Dolby Vision, making movies and shows look incredibly vibrant and lifelike.
Navigating the interface is super smooth and intuitive, thanks to the A15 Bionic chip. The integration with other Apple devices, like AirPods and HomeKit, makes it even more convenient — I can control my smart home, mirror my iPhone, and listen privately with ease. Siri voice commands are a great touch too, making it simple to find content without endless scrolling.
Streaming apps load quickly, and the sound quality with Dolby Atmos support is immersive. Whether I’m watching a blockbuster movie, catching up on a show, or playing Apple Arcade games, the experience has been flawless. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a premium streaming experience!”

I use the Apple TV 4K 64GB (3rd Gen) every day, and it’s hands down the fastest, most user-friendly, and high-resolution streaming device I’ve ever owned. The performance is incredibly smooth, and navigating through apps feels seamless. It has all the apps I need, and I’ve never had any issues with storage space.
What truly sets it apart is its practicality and portability. I highly recommend it to everyone—whether you’re looking for a primary streaming device or something versatile for trips. I often take it with me on long trips with my girlfriend or family, and it’s so easy to hook up to any TV to watch movies or shows.
If you’re in the market for a reliable, fast, and well-designed streaming device, this one is worth every penny!

I recently added the Apple TV 4K to my home entertainment setup, and I must say it's nothing short of amazing. Apple has once again delivered a product that sets the bar high.
The picture quality on this device is absolutely stunning. With support for 4K HDR content and Dolby Atmos, it feels like a cinema experience right in my living room. The colors are vibrant, and the clarity is impeccable. Whether I'm streaming my favorite shows or watching the latest blockbuster, The visuals are breathtaking.
What truly sets the Apple TV 4K apart is its integration with the Apple ecosystem. The seamless connection to my iPhone, iPad, and Mac is a game-changer. AirPlay allows me to effortlessly share content from my other Apple devices to the TV, and the Siri Remote makes navigation a breeze. Plus, the App Store offers a wide range of apps and games to enhance my entertainment choices.
Setting up the Apple TV 4K was a breeze, and the user interface is intuitive. It's also worth noting that Apple regularly updates its tvOS, ensuring that the device stays current and introduces new features.
If you're looking for a top-notch streaming device that offers exceptional picture quality, seamless integration with Apple devices, and a user-friendly interface, the Apple TV 4K is an absolute winner. It's another testament to Apple's commitment to excellence, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Reasons to get:
1) Better hardware: Apple TV is substantially faster and less sluggish than using the apps built in on your TV.
2) Easier to login: Using the Passwords app on your Apple ID account, the Apple TV will automatically recognize your logins for apps, and will ask if you want to login with those credentials.
3) Easier to control: Although the remote is extremely intuitive, you can use your iPhone (or iPad) as the remote, allowing you to move through apps. You can even search using the keyboard on your phone!
4) Continuity Camera: You can FaceTime from Apple TV, with the main camera from your phone being what is seen on the other end of a call, and the person you’re on FaceTime with displayed on your TV. Think of your phone as a webcam at your TV for this.
5) Hard of hearing? Don’t want to bother others in another room sleeping at night? You can connect AirPods wirelessly to an Apple TV, and the audio will automatically sync.
Admittedly, if you’re an Android user, it probably makes more sense to stick with something like an Nvidia Shield TV for the added performance. Overall, it’s worthwhile to invest in a streaming device over using a TV’s built in apps!

We are coming from an Amazon fire stick and the difference is night and day. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, and it’s very smooth with no lag. It’s great having access to the App Store as there are a bunch of games and apps you can install just like on an iPhone or iPad. Another huge selling point in the ability to screen mirror and airplay from our iPhones. It makes showing family photos and videos a breeze. The remote is also very cool and Siri’s ability to fast forward and rewind by any amount is amazing. Overall, I highly recommend biting the bullet and paying the Apple premium for this device, especially if you’re already in the Apple ecosystem.

The Apple TV 4K (3rd generation) is fantastic. With 4K resolution and HDR support, the visuals are sharp and vibrant. The interface is smooth, apps open quickly, and overall usage is very comfortable. The Wi-Fi connection is stable, ensuring uninterrupted streaming. Ideal for both movies and gaming. Highly recommend.

Absolutely amazing, seamless controls and interface. The same feel you get on an iPhone is the same feel you will get with this hub. The price is higher is than a Roku or Amazon stick but once you start using it you feel the difference in quality. Pairs well with my home theater receiver and has a subtle and sleek look, even the remote looks good. 10/10 would recommend.

I have two smart TVs, both useful in their own rights but AppleTV streamlines the differences between them!
I had a hard time connecting my two smart TVs to my community network at my apartment complex and thanks to Apple’s ecosystem the Apple TV’s connected immediately to the network without any special work arounds like I have needed for other products.
Apple TV also is super user friendly which made teaching others what to do was simple and clean. Not to mention streaming or casting from my phone was simple and fast. Faster then even connecting to the TVs directly.

The latest version of Apple tv is terrific! Having the power button on the remote as well as the voice command button on the side is a game changer as the prior versions required the tv be turned on using it's remote. The slightly larger size, and weight of it is also much more comfortable as the first ones were very light (and easy to lose in the couch!). Setup was so quick and easy. If you're an Apple user it's a 'must add' product.

Great! I always prefer Apple TV over using the smart tv features of my actual tv. Always quick and responsive, and fits well into the Apple ecosystem with my other Apple products.
Also, I love the different screensaver download feature which I believe you have to turn on in settings. I have it download any new screensavers using the the option for most frequently — which I believe is daily. I enjoy even just leaving the screensaver on as it adds to my enjoyment of my home, even when I’m not just watching tv.
The picture is of a 10 year old 46” Samsung tv that I used my apple tv with until recently, and the screensaver is per Apple TV download, which seems to switch to another after some time, and so on until eventually it makes it back to this one, and often showing new ones as well.
Hope this helps! Even with my relatively old tv on this picture, Apple TV definitely added to the experience.
And all through WiFi to access the internet, yet still quick to respond and does not crash or have any issues — as usual at least in my experience owning several Apple products. I wouldn’t have it any other way, given how user friendly the ecosystem truly is.
And the apps available on Apple TV work pretty well.

This product from apple is unequivocally one of the best TV streaming services out there. Had a device from another competitor for over a few years and wondering why I didn’t choose this device earlier. Apple TV is so consistently easy to use and allows for so many numerous other apps and services along with gaming options to use with your apple ecosystem or without. People, you will not be disappointed with this device. Apple, you’ve done it once again, thank you.

Apple is just on another level. It is seamless to set up and it knows you before you know it. Other apple devices can connect to it. Since having it I look forward to sitting down and scrolling. No random distractions from unnecessary ads. Just you and your apps.
