The editors didn't like
Halfbaked Siri
Not enough content yet
Remote needs work
Apple TV costs more than similar devices like the Roku
Amazon Fire TV and Chromecast for basically the same core functions. There's no dedicated app for Amazon or any other a la carte video service beyond iTunes
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

So that is pretty much Zwift on Apple TV. We've got a new input device, which the team are working to refine. There is a discussion about tweaks to the interface, which would be useful. In the current beta version, the remote is functional but isn't perfe...
Excellent SIri integration. She never misunderstands what I say. The app-based approach to television is a winner, even if it's just a bit ahead of its time right now. A refreshing interface that is at once both new and familiar
App Store discoverability is a mess. Search in general across tvOS can use a lot of improvement. Lack of dictation support is frustrating. Launch week apps and games leave something to be desired. Very few outstanding apps and games available right now
The new Apple TV is the best Apple TV Apple has ever made. It's also the best digital media player on the market. That being said, it's a brand new device that is negatively affected by some launch-day hiccups. The lack of Categories in the App Store make...
These two offerings seem to occupy different camps. If you want an all in one unit to watch TV and movies on, one that has a traditional interface and controller, then the Apple TV is a solid choice. But the lack of catch-up TV will be a drawback for some...
After the rather good but, AirPlay aside, quite inflexible previous-gen Apple TV, Apple has pulled out all of the stops for this model. Adding an App Store makes a huge difference and will ensure that the product can evolve quickly, with new services comi...

Abstract: But it was inevitable that Apple would, as it always does in its own good time, trump it. I've been using the latest Apple TV for a while now and it's the best online television portal there is – with the proviso that you really need to be an habitué of A...
New onscreen keyboard is torturous to use, limited genrebased listings on App Store
We had such high expectations for the 4G Apple TV that we have to admit to being a little disappointed with it on launch day. However, many of our main complaints seemed easy to rectify, and updates to tvOS and the Remote app have indeed resolved several...

Easy and fun to use, Fantastic remote control, Zippy operation, tvOS versions of apps are great, AirPlay mirroring
Does not support 4K, No optical digital audio port, Lacks some key apps, No expandable storage
If you're a fan of all things Apple, the Apple TV is sure to be a delight in your entertainment system. It's quick, fun and easy to use, and it brings the entire Apple content universe to your big screen.If, however, you aren't so heavily invested in all...
Amazon wins on picture and sound, Apple has better voice search, Amazon has more apps and UHD video, Amazon features USB and MicroSD
Apple TV more expensive, Typing is a chore on Apple
This is an easy win for the Amazon Fire TV. Its ease of use, its high speed, lower price and wealth of content all score major points over the Apple TV. And that's before we even get to the Amazon's UHD video.The Amazon Fire TV is hot stuff indeed, and Ap...
