The editors didn't like
Limited rental content on iTunes
Home Sharing requires single iTunes account
Initial setup still requires tedious text input
Both a boon and a faux pas
The Siri Remote is the most loved/reviled aspect of Apple's new plastic. By building in a microphone and half-baked Siri support
The Apple TV takes some serious steps forward on its march to the living room throne. But simulta
No TV shows. Streaming only option creates major flaws
Limited content available via iTunes in the UK
Rentals are comparatively expensive
No local storage
Needs a Mac to be turned on and running iTunes to stream content
No online UK partner to match Netflix
Over-reliance on the Mac or PC
No 1080p HD
No hard disk for storing music or video
ITunes rentals in UK are more expensive than in the US
The new Apple TV doesn't currently offer the ability to rent and download TV programmes. This wouldn't be quite so bad if the feature wasn't offered on the previous generation Apple TV
Or across the pond where US users can download to their hearts content. Fingers crossed that Apple will fix this soon.
160GB drive is paltry compared to other devices
Limited playback options (no DivX playback)
Remote is awkward to use Min specs
ITunes 7.1
Wireless network (wireless video streaming requires 802.11g or 802.11n) or Ethernet network

US centric content at moment. Make sure you get iTunes 10.1 when home streaming

Abstract: Im September diesen Jahres hat Apple eine neue und günstigere Version des Apple TV angekündigt. Kompakter, mit neuer Hardware ausgestattet und ohne Festplatte präsentiert sich die neue Streamingbox aus dem Hause Apple. Doch was bietet das neue Apple TV...
Das Internetangebot der Apple-TV-Box beschränkt sich auf das Videoportal YouTube, das Fotoportal Flickr, Podcasts aus dem iTunes-Store sowie die Auswahl an Internetradio-Stationen, die auch das kostenlose Apple-Computer-Programm iTunes anbietet. Dafür hat...
extrem kleines Gehäuse, hervorragendes Interface, lässt sich mit iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch fernbedienen, günstig, streamt Medien von PCs und Macs, auf denen iTunes läuft, soll ab November AirPlaykompatibel sein,
TVSerien sehr teuer, keine Verbindung zu Fernsehern ohne HDMIPort möglich, unterstützt keine Apps,
Für ein Gerät mit Apfel auf dem Gehäuse ist der Apple TV zwar vergleichsweise günstig, doch leider sind die Inhalte zu teuer. Wenn das AirPlay-Feature mit dem iOS-4.2-Update verfügbar ist, könnte jedoch einiges an Bewegung in das Medienangebot kommen....
Solides Media-Center ohne TV Im Test gab Apple TV ein durchweg solides Bild ab: Das Gerät ist derzeit einer der besten Media-Center, die es auf dem Markt gibt. Für einen stattlichen Preis bekommen Kunden ein ordentliches Gerät, das ganz und...

Narrensichere Bedienung, kompakt, geräuschlos, praktische Remote-App für iOS-Geräte
Kein Full HD, nur wenige kompatible Filmformate, schwache Funktionen für Internetradio

Dimensioni ridotte, prezzo accessibile, facilità d'uso, qualità audio/video, design, necessità di pochi cavi, semplice interfacciabilità con altri device Apple, assenza di parti mobili, funzione AirPlay, funzionamento fluido,
Poca scelta di contenuti, prezzo dei contenuti, digitazione testi laboriosa, non gestisce flussi HD a 1080p, assenza di programmi Tv noleggiabili/acquistabili, poco tempo per fruire dei contenuti, sistema "chiuso" strettamente legato a iTunes, mancata localizzazione del prodotto sul mercato europeo, limitazione nei formati compatibili, necessità di un account iTunes.
AirPlay para vídeos e espelhamento de tela de iPhone e iPad, streaming de filmes e músicas da iTunes Store, iTunes Match e PCs, interface primorosa, design
Preço elevado dos filmes na iTunes Store, USB só para manutenção, não tem HD, formatos limitados para vídeo
Aparelho com ótima interface e design elegante, mas necessidades de uso mais complexas o tornam inviável para alguns consumidores. Para ecossistemas Apple, o produto traz inúmeras vantagens....
