My favorite thing about the Apple TV is Airplay. I have invested in the Sonos ecosystem so Sonos having Airplay means I can bring over an Apple TV on a hotel together with a Sonos Move and get a better media setup than what most hotels can provide.

I bought a Sony Bravia last winter with GoogleTV built-in, and it's been nothing but a hassle. Bought an ATV-4K last weekend, and have been nothing but smiles ever since. A great feature for me you hadn't mentioned (as someone with ever-increasing tinnitus) is the ability to press the Siri button, ask "What did he/she say?", and it rewinds 15 seconds and temporarily turns on Closed-Captioning; brilliant!

I also just ditched sky last week at tv alone 90 quid with multiroom and hd add ons etc. And also have sony tv with built in google which is OK. But just got apple 4k yesterday and just set up. First impressions is fantastic. I'll get another to replace the multiroom. One paid I know hav netflix and disney at 30 quid and rest of apps are free. I got 3 months apple plus so looking forward to trying that. It could replace netflif bring my bill down to 20 quid. Even if I kept all 3 will still less than half what sky charged. I agree it will take a little time to get used to not having sky guide etc but I won't miss the continuous boxes freezing. Overall impressed. Looking forward to it. Has anyone set it up wit bravia tv and hta9....

Weird ecosystem edge case: Our dog got freaked out by a beeping noise used in every episode of Severance on Apple TV+, so my partner and I used AirPods to listen and watch. The fact you can use two pairs of AirPods on one Apple TV was amazing. Another ecosystem win for Apple.

I would never have considered one of these until I used a voucher from apple to buy one (student voucher when I bought a new iPad) with a small contribution from myself. I have a Samsung Tv with the usually suspects of streaming service apps and this Apple TV box just brought everything together to make it feel how it should be. Sound is so much better through headphones connected via the box and a minor thing with a huge noticeable difference is how nice the remote is to use and how the tv box connects to my iPhone so I can use the keyboard on my iPhone to search for a program or film makes it so much easier. It's a device you never realise you need until you have one.

The ability to AirPlay video content from apple devices directly to the Apple TV has been really clutch for me since my family watches alot of video content that are only accessible via a web browser (and the fact that I can also use my AirPods on them during AirPlay is really cool)

I purchased this Apple TV 4K summer of 23 and I hooked it up and tried it but was more comfortable with my built in TCL control so I quit using the apple and put it away thinking well that was a waste of a 160 bucks or whatever I paid. Well fast forward to around Christmas and I bought 3 Apple home speakers and that lead me to watch a video or two about the Apple TV and I reconnected it to my brand new LG OLED and it’s been a much better experience than the stock controls for all your apps. The apps load immediately unlike the other TV box top app controllers and it’s just easy to use. It’s very close to my phone so it all works easy for me. I like the controller but it was a bit smaller than I am used to but then I went on Amazon and bought a silicone case for the remote and that really made the remote so much better and less delicate to me. I am glad I gave it another try and I recommend it to everyone that I know uses Apple. it works nicely with all of my speakers and my phone and everything else I have in the apples sphere. Thanks for the video!

I agree with pretty much everything you have said. We have had Apple TV for years, but it's only with the 4K version that we have moved to using it as our primary source.... so much so that two months ago we cancelled our (UK) TV license. We use two of the 'old' HomePods as stereo speakers, and this works perfectly and neatly. The content on TV+ is pretty impressive, and although we have a Netflix sub we don't use it that much... have recently resubscribed to Disney+ but only due to the three month free offer.

The Apple TV 4K is awesome device to add to your arsenal, especially if you own other products from Apple. The price is very acceptable, which can not be said for some other Apple products. I stopped using apps installed through the tv's OS, or the set-top box for cable tv. All I use is the Apple TV 4K, pretty handy indeed. I can even operate my lights or light scenes on it, thanks to the Apple Home integration.

Great review, with a caveat. I live in the French Alps and at time of writing, my internet comes through a copper wire. Yup, an above ground (so affected by heat, rain, snow, sub-zero temps, sitting birds, tall trucks, trees) copper wire. So the idea that sound and 4k images are a given just by plugging ATV in, is not really true. I will be upgrading to Starlink, but for now, even with this magic little box, it will be basic.

ATV is a great device but I’m not sure it’s a ‘replace everything’ device. From a cost perspective all the streamers have bumped up their costs significantly (especially if you want the benefit of 4k and atmos). All the core services comes in at about £50/month now and you lose the sheer convenience of sky. My current approach is a main sky package with Netflix and UHD and then take a subscription with one of the others now and again to catch up on the new stuff. Neither Disney nor ATV+ have enough to justify permanent subs (for me at least).

I agree with every point you've made. I will preface this comment by stating Apple TV 4K has changed my life. Apple TV has been one the best purchasing decisions I've made. Is it cheap?... heck no, it's Apple after all. I got my 2nd Apple TV 4K in July 2022 as a belated birthday present to myself and I can say there isn't a day I don't use it in some way. It's become the central hub for what time of my leisure time I choose to spend watching a film/tv show or using Apple fitness. I loved it so much that I decided to get a second one and put it in the living room. It's thanks to Apple that I sit & watch movies/tv shows etc in the living room (I couldn't cast to tv) now because I can - I don't spend all my time on my own when I am home just in my bedroom now). Our entertainment system at home before Apple TV, was so fragmented & Apple TV has if anything added value & benefit and I think it's brought our entertainment system more together. It has in many ways, it's brought my family closer together and has provided a broader spectrum of entertainment to our lives (there's no trouble accessing and watching movies/tv shows in my library now I have an Apple TV). There are films/tv shows I have in my library that we don't have on the tv or on dvd. Factor in the fact most of my family have iPads & iPhones, it means that they get a fuller and more immersive experience in the Apple Ecosystem (without the expense of buying an Apple TV 4K themselves). I upgraded my TV from HD to 4K because I wanted to create that at home cinema experience (2 HomePod minis connected) - this has been a blessing during covid times. I've used screen sharing/casting onto my Apple TV in the living room so I can show something on the screen (ie there's an problem needs solving on a document I'm working on, disclaimer: all personal to me docs) & we've been able to sit, look at the document & talk through issues to find solutions. I know it’s probably an unusual way to use Apple TV, but it's been a blessing in disguise. Apple fitness has helped me keep on top of fitness goals during covid times. The likes of Apple fitness being available to me has meant it’s made it easier for to keep going with my weight loss journey & lose 7st (approx 98lbs or 44kg) in weight. I’ve gotten fitter, healthier, stronger & slimmer. I don't think what I'm saying above can truly convey just how much it has played a hugely positive role in my life but it really has changed my life. I love how seamless my AirPods connect to the Apple TV box. Admittedly, before getting my first Apple TV (32gb box); I was really hesitant to get one. I wasn't sure if It was worth it & would it I get any benefit satisfaction/enjoyment out of using it - I'm glad I did get it. I actually originally bought one then returned it because I had 2nd thoughts, only to later kick myself after more research. I've been encouraging my friends/family to get one. So, I went and repurchased it (the first tv box) again... & I've no regrets getting it all.

Thanks for making the video. Mark, can you please confirm something for me before I make a purchase. If you log into the KZbin app on the Apple TV 4K, can you see your private and unlisted videos within the app? I ask as our so called smart tv has the youtube app and when logged into it and I select 'my videos' only those videos that are visible, I cant see all my other videos? I have tried this on the PS5 and another smart tv and it appears there must be a limitation with the youtube app on certain devices. The only way I can play my unlisted or private videos is to chromecast the video from my iphone or ipad to the tv which is pointless when the tv already has a youtube app.

It’s very good but the Achilles heel for all the Apple ecosystem is Siri. It is AWFUL. Half the time it can’t do something, or mishears, or is just useless (search? Use your phone - literally that’s its answer). Siri is so bad that I’ve kept my ATV but got rid of my HomePod minis as they were too unreliable because of it. It’s a Ferrari with a SNES controller for steering.

Sorry but Apple TV is a non starter for me.Subscribed for Ted Lasso till that went down in flames. Most of its programming, except when it’s a financial gatekeeper for other services, is laughable. Foundation was an abomination of Isaac Asimov, other original programming equally terrible. Does NOT do hi=res audio, converts all sound sources to 24/48. But it’s *pretty* so that seems to satisfy the iDiots .

I agree with everything you said, the benefits go on and on. Wehave been using an Apple TV since 2016 as the main tv device . We started with the HD, now we have the 4k for the last 18 months. The HD is still going strong in a bedroom. We have HomePods mini’s around the house and it is so useful to be able to play the sound around the house if you need to leave the room. FaceTime is yet to work properly, it doesn’t seem to want to connect to the camera. Apple TV+ has become my favourite streaming service. Everything seems a bit left field which I think puts people off initially until they try it. For all Mankind is back this week 🎉

I was desperate to get SKY out of my life with their awful business practices. Apple TV seemed to be the only viable choice to us. I'm seriously impressed with it. Yeah, it takes a bit of getting used to that you cant just flip through channels, but that is probably a good thing, right? What I have found is that I really only watch: BBC iPlayer, Channel Four and KZbin (with a bit of GCN during the cycling season). One thing I don't get is that Siri on an iPhone is terrible, but on Apple TV it works really well, meaning you almost never have to type anything.

I have three Apple TV in our home. My wife and son both have their own Apple accounts but we can share each other’s accounts on any of the Apple TV. That gives us a massive movie library!

i don't own a Apple TV device, never purchased one and have no interest in this. 10 things you love about Apple TV,...that's wonderful, I don't own a Apple phone or won't ever buy one. I live in USA. But I've heard Sky TV is expensive. Saying you would've wanted apple to get rid of Apple TV was you're opinion and people should respect that.

I'm a bit of a hybrid with my tech, MacBook Air M1, Ipad pro 2020, and Samsung S23 Ultra! and then like Mark ditched Sky after years of paying far too much for what I actually used, I began looking at alternatives and believe I spent far too many hours in my opinion doing this but long story short I jumped into the ATV 4K and what a release, I now probably spend just short of my previous Sky subscription but have so much more content which I actually what and also don't channel hope which really did drive me crazy. I don't have enough time to go into alll the great features of the ATV but as others here just find along with other apple tech just works! (Albeit I can't see myself converting from my Samsung S23 ultra to an iPhone unless iPhone 16 does something amazing! sadly though I don't see them every having an inbuilt stylus which I use daily with my Samsung) I continue to be optimistic that one day I will have an iPhone!!!!

I have an Apple TV 4K and a Roku 4K. Is the Apple TV nicer than the Roku? Yes. But is it worth 3.5x the price? A resounding no. It’s simply underwhelming for the price. I mean a screensaver??? That’s a reason to pay 3.5x???
@Martyntd5
@Martyntd5 2 ай бұрын
It's not just a screensaver, it's the way the ATV optimises the video output of your TV, it's the smoothness and flawless operation, it's the smart assistant, it's the controller hub for lights, video cameras, security devices, heating control, fans and cooling systems, personal contacts, telephone and so much more.

I’ve just watched all of your video. You did go on about the speakers a little bit too much but then again you had to because they gave you a set for free. I’m going to give you 10 out of 10 for your video the little bit about finding the loss remote fantastic I have had my original Apple TV since 2012 just been to the flagship store and bought the K4 most expensive with the biggest amount of storage absolutely over the moon, especially for watching new movies like Oppenheim and Napoleon thank you for your time.

I did think it took a little while to set up, but got the hang of it in the end as I’m an apple product addict the screensavers are fantastic. Is there a way we can choose different settings for screensavers?

I just got a new appletv 4K over the holiday season, cuz I love the ease of pairing my AirPods Pro’s to them. Unfortunately the share audio that allows you to pair two sets seems to be removed! Perhaps I am mistaken but that feature isn’t anywhere in my control center
@Martyntd5
@Martyntd5 2 ай бұрын
It's there, but you no longer have 'share audio' as a selectable option in the ATV control centre, instead you just put a check next to both pairs of airpods you want to use.
