INTRODUCING THE NEW APPLE TV 4K
This year’s Apple TV 4K might look virtually identical to its predecessor, but Apple has packed some serious punch into this year’s model. Sure, it doesn’t offer the flexibility of a TV streaming stick similar to the likes of Google Chromecast or the Amazon Fire Stick, but it looks stunning and stands proudly on a TV unit in the home. It connects with all television units, and you can use the remote to control the volume and power on your television, making it a firm favorite and a replacement for often ugly television remote controls. The device supports several formats, including Dolby Atmos and HDR10 Plus, and the Siri Remote features USB-C charging for speed and convenience. Perhaps one of the most valuable things about the Apple TV 4K is that you can access all of your favorite Apple devices, from Apple Arcade to iCloud and Apple Music, and they load lightning-fast.
For this year’s model, the Apple TV 4K serves as a hub for innovative home products that work with HomeKit, and thanks to Matter, it’s now possible to control many more products from your iPhone and Apple TV. The Apple TV will work directly with HomePod mini units so that you can play music and television shows via your speakers and AirPods, should you want to watch TV without disturbing others.
