    The Apple TV worked flawlessly and was very easy to set up on my Sony TV, IPad, and IPad Mini. Once I do the Apple Air thing, think it will hook up to my son's Samsung tablet as well. Great thing to have with NETFLIX.

    This is my third device like this, my second AppleTV. I especially like that it can work without Wi-Fi or Internet connection. It was easy to set up and easy to use. My primary use is to view videos from my iPad mini or my iPhone. I would highly recommend it for these uses.

    Apple TV is simple little box. It is easy to set-up. Ability to use apps is pretty easy as well. A downside is the inability to add apps. The mirroring feature (i.e. airplay) is also nice and is almost seamless using the iphone and ipad (haven't tried using a Mac, but imagine it'd do just fine). The remote is Apple quality and simple. Sometimes I wished it had more functionality, but does all it needs to do.

    It is the best gadget I bought in long time. Easy set up and I had no problem to see my picture etc from my Ipad on the big screen. Great buy, We love it. I can log on a lot of other sides like Facebook, Netflix etc, you name it might be available right on your big TV screen

    I used this at my daughters house and liked it, so we purchased it for our bedroom. It was pretty easy to set up! Took a while to program all the channels with our cable comp. but I was able to do it! Now we have a lot more channels in our bedroom then we did with basic cable before. Good product, I'm very pleased with it. U also get access to Utube (free) and Netflix (for a fee) and other apps.

    It was easy to set up and just as easy to sync all my Apple products to it. I use it to sync my mac book and 50" TV to each other while doing research / homework. While hosting parties its a great way to play music from my iTunes account across my surround system as well

    I love the Apple TV so much that I bought two. I use one for the bedroom and one for the living room. I love the easy way I can watch movies and the kids love taking turns playing funny videos from you tube from their iPhones on to the big tv and making ther friends laugh.

    Love it. Went in to get a hdmi cable to connect to my phone. Was shown this Apple TV and explained how it worked. Took it home, very easy to operate and now I am glad I got it. No cords to worry with. Can even display things from my phone on the tv using the Apple TV.

    Best way to make any TV a Smart TV

    We have a Smart TV in our activity room, but a smaller "ordinary" flat screen in the kitchen. i For the money, this was the best choice for us in making our existing TV into a user friendly Smart TV. The fact that it interfaces with our iPhones and iPads is a nice bonus.

    The Apple TV is my second unit for another room and it works just as great as the first unit. It has a clear picture and I can mirror my screen from my Ipad and Iphone without any issues, I can even talk on the phone and still have interruptions on my television screen.

    Fast and easy to use. Best way we have found to cut the cable. My wife is all about iPad, iPod, iPhone and this works with all of them. It starts up quick. Moves thru the menu easily. We have other WIFI enabled methods to get TV, this is by far the fastest and easiest.

    I am nearly 70 and consider myself somewhat computer literate. With a new TV and a new Apple computer that I bought at Best Buy, I knew the Apple box would be most helpful in achieving full connectivity. It was easy to install and I am jenjoying complete access.

    Easy to use and includes best HD quality

    Compared to my Roku 3 the Apple TV has way better HD picture; much sharper. You can share photos, videos and music easily. The downside is that you have to use iTunes but the upside of that is that iTunes integration make it a breeze to share what's on your mac. Another great benefit is being able to use AirPlay to stream my iPad or iPhone directly to my TV on demand without connecting anything up. That alone makes owning an Apple TV worth it. Anything you can display on your iPad's screen can be streamed to your TV (mirrored). So, you can even play a video from a web site and stream it to your Apple TV. Unlike Roku 3, the Apple TV only has a limited number of apps, but I only use a few anyway (Netflix mainly). In summary, the Roku 3 probably has a slight edge ahead of the Apple TV because of all the apps you get get for Roku, but if you truly value the quality of your HD video the Apple TV is the way to go.

    The electronics in my home are applies mostly (phone & tablet) so the compatibility is really convenient as far as music played and video play is concerned. I love that whatever I watch on my phone/Ipad I can just transfer to the TV screen with a click of a button

    I'm sure I don't use this to the fullest of its capabilities, but I love it! Paired with my iPhone I can show internet videos and streaming. Plus my Netflix is easily accessed. One of my favorite things about it is the radio--so much music to choose from. My ONLY complaint is having to enter letters and numbers for the search (or any entry) with the very simplistic (but tedious) remote arrows.

    Setup was effortless using my iPhone with easy to follow instructions. Also much nicer to use the app remote instead of the remote it comes with. Great content and access to the available movies /shows and so easy to stream anything on your mobile device to your TV.

    Another Great Item from Apple

    This is another great product from Apple. I am an Apple lover, so this integrates into my home very easily. I like being able to control it from my iMac and Macbook. It is sleek and sits in my shelving system in my office, hardly being noticeable. It wakes from standby in less than a second. The interface is easily navigable, with nice large icons. It has a stunning picture in 1080p. I use this on a 65" plasma screen in my office and have never had any complaints about it. There are many Apps to chose from, but I use mostly Netflix. Apple is trustworthy, and I will always patronize them before any other company.
