Customer Ratings & Reviews

Full disclosure, I’m an Apple junkie, so consider that when reading this review. If you are not part of the Apple ecosystem (have an icloud account, have an iPhone), you might want to consider something cheaper, like a Roku, as an alternative. The device is just about what you would expect from any streaming device. You connect to an App Store (the Apple one in this case) and you download the apps for the services you subscribe to (Netflix, Hulu, etc). The Apple TV does have the, at first, slightly confusing Apple TV app. This app basically tries to create a single point of access that looks at all the things you are watching in various apps, so that you can just access what you’ve been watching from the single place instead of going straight to the app that has what you’re watching. Even as an Apple fanboy, I struggle to really find the usefulness of this function. Also the Apple TV app should not be confused with Apple Tv+, the excellent streaming service, which lives as a sub component of the Apple TV app. Note that you can now get AppleTv+ on most other streaming devices at this point. You can also view your icloud pictures and videos on the device if you sign in with your iCloud account. The remote is the big weakness of this device. In the last two iterations of this device, the remote has gone from atrocious to better, but still a little crappy. Personally I prefer a remote that lets me have a solid grasp on it, and lets me toss it to someone else. To do this, the remote needs to be a decent size. The AppleTV remote is tiny. Yo make matters worse, the remote has a touchpad on it. So the user is always accidentally doing unintentional things on the screen because of the almost unavoidable and highly sensitive touchpad. And forget about tossing it to someone else; you end up in a different app because of the touchpad. The internal components of the device are a higher quality than other streaming devices. So reaction time and navigating through the device is much faster than using another device, if you care about that sort of thing.

We bought this to replace our old one because it was no longer compatible with some of our subscriptions. This one was super easy to set up and very easy to operate. I like the new remote because it’s bigger and has more functions on it. I would recommend this product.

Apple TV is the best platform for streaming multiple apps very streamline.

Omg luv. Makes the tv interface more streamlined like an iPhone.

Works flawlessly with all Apple systems and streams everything great. Works even better with the Apple homepod

Helps makes the sound quality even more better. Connectivity and clarity of my TV improved by 100%. I am glad I bought the apple TV, it’s worth of every single penny you spend.

Great picture quality vso easy to configure & set up.

Apple hit a home run with the Apple TV. In my opinion it is a very versatile tool for anyone’s audio media equipment kit.

Great picture quality great sound Easy set up great features

When I got the Apple TV 4K, I was very excited until I realized I had no idea how to use it. After getting comfortable, figuring out how to go to and from different apps this device is superior to other streaming devices. It’s faster, and the voice controls are so easy to use.

My 3rd one (2nd, 3rd gen) Easy to use and lots of apps

Love the ease of use. Only quibble is the track pad is a bit sensitive even on the lowest setting. But everything else is so much better than working off a smart TV or a video game console.

Works amazing! Super fast and the picture is top notch! Well worth it

I got this so I could have seamless interaction with Mac. This is much better than any software based solution on any platform that I have tried, Fire, NVIDIA, Samsung, etc. Ny far best solution out there. For Human Machine Interface, Apple has it hands down.

I love the Apple TV 4k, especially since it fits seamlessly into my other Apple products. The picture quality is great and the OS is clean looking.

I love Apple TV, works perfectly! Best Buy was prompt in delivery!

I was having issues airplaying from my iPhone to my LG OLED Evo. This device streamlined that process for me. I have also owned several streaming stick devices and this one, by far, looks and handles the best. My only complaint is the search keyboard is ridiculous.

The new remote makes all the difference! The old Apple TV remote was a huge point of frustration in our house.

I love it, the mouse it’s so easy to use the 4k makes the tv look so good

Works like a charm, it was so easy to buy it Thanks best buy
