Halfbaked Siri
Not enough content yet
Remote needs work

Expensive
No 4K UHD
Pricing approaches console territory
Few compelling apps outside video and games
Optical audio port is gone
The Apple TV 4K is expensive. Cheaper streaming devices from Roku and others offer similar image quality and capabilities
And more 4K apps (including YouTube). Upconversion of non-4K/HDR video is confusing and doesn't improve image quality
Pricey compared to previous Apple TV
Most TVs have built in apps for streaming 4K content
Siri works well for TV and movies, Really fast, Games are a fun addition
Siri is extremely limited, Have to log in to every app individually, No 4K support

Apps and games have arrived. Hardware is all toprate — this is a fast settop box with a great remote. tvOS is an improved system for navigating Apple TV. Siri works very well within its range. Faster AirPlay and wireless. Apple Music is available. Aerial
Limitations in Siri and search are disappointing. Current apps are underwhelming; App Store itself needs work. The most expensive settop box available. Siri Remote is expensive to replace. No 4K video support. Cable subscription apps still must be authent

Great content selection, Siri on the TV makes sense, Universal search is amazing
$150 price is higher than competition, Logging into services can be a pain, No 4K support
The new Apple TV is a huge improvement over the old Apple TV in every possible category. If you're already in Apple's ecosystem, it's definitely worth checking out...

Abstract: For a glimpse of the future of television, grab a mat and join me for a Glute Boost with the new Apple TV. On the big screen, a personal trainer app called Zova chirps orders for lower-body exercises. Meanwhile, the Apple Watch on my wrist measures my hea...
4K HDR/Dolby Vision support means great visuals, Affordable 4K movies in iTunes store - and whatever you buy will be upgraded to best quality as and when available, Cross-service Siri search
Expensive hardware purchase, Many 4K TVs offer same streaming services, No Dolby Atmos sound (yet)
Had Apple just released a box that was capable of playing 4K HDR content it would get filed under "just another way to access 4K content in a world where there are plenty of alternatives".The Apple TV 4K aligns itself with the current standards, but where...

Dolby Vision support, tvOS interface is slick, Amazing for photos, especially Moments
No Dolby Atmos support
If you're interested in getting superb quality 4K HDR video and you're invested in Apple's ecosystem of devices, then the Apple TV 4K is almost a must-have even though it is significantly more expensive than its rivals. No 4K? Then this isn't the box for...
Abstract: Amazon's latest Fire TV isn't its first to support 4K video streaming, but it has managed to shrink it down so it can hang behind your TV out of sight, just like Google's Chromecast Ultra. The Apple TV 4K is an altogether larger, more expensive box with...
Slick and powerful, Siri voice controls are great, Growing app store, Clever remote, Seamless setup, if you own an iPhone
Remote not great for gaming, Automatic upscaling not always a benefit, Some key apps missing, Need to be an iPhone user to get the most out of it
The slickest TV streaming box around got the 4K HDR upgrade it needed. If your smart TV is a bit thick and you're an Apple user then the Apple TV 4K is an essential addition to your entertainment arsenal...
Powerful processor, Dolby Vision support, Excellent and responsive interface, Extensive selection of apps, Cheaper movies on iTunes, Existing iTunes library upgraded for free, Attractive design and great build quality
Single format output, No auto refresh rate selection, Remote can be annoying, Still very US-centric, Expensive
If you already have a 4K HDR TV with all the main video streaming and catch-up services, then you probably don't really need an Apple TV 4K unless you want access to iTunes. However if you use a projector or it's something that interests you and you're al...
