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)

  • Nya Apple TV är en enhet för att enkelt kunna hyra film- och tv-serier direkt från soffan samt att ta emot bild och ljud från iPhone, iPad, iPod touch och iTunes. Dessa två saker gör den rysligt bra, den är snabb och enkel. Så länge du har internet igång...

  • Abstract:  När Steve Jobs offentliggjorde iTV för första gången var det många som fick se sina drömmar gå i uppfyllelse – nu var det dags att revolutionera hemmet med vad man kunde kalla en iPod för vardagsrummet. Men det var också det som var det grundläggande ...

  • Enkel att använda, ansluter direkt till Itunes-butiken
  • Begränsat formatstöd, filmutbudet lyser med sin frånvaro i de europeiska Itunes-butikerna
  • Den som söker en multimediespelare med stor potential, vilken dock inte kan visa sig förrän samma Itunes-tjänster som erbjuds i USA introduceras i Europa ...

  • Enkelt å sette opp, Enkelt brukergrensesnitt, Airplay er knall, Moro hvis du har Appledingser
  • Ingen harddisk eller mulighet til å koble til ekstern harddisk, Begrenset til å spille av mp4videoer via iTunes, Dårlig filmutvalg i norske iTunes, Ikke så mye å gjøre hvis du ikke har Appledingser, Savner TVserier i iTunes

  • Liten, enkel å sette opp, lynrask å bruke, meget godt grensesnitt, svært stabil. ...
  • Krever nettverkstilgang, begrenset formatstøtte, begrenset filmutvalg, passer best for eiere av andre Apple-produkter. ...
  • Apple TV er en kjempemorsom, stabil mediespiller med klare begrensninger. Den er aller morsomst for eiere av andre Apple-produkter, ja, med dagens spede video-utvalg vil den øvrige funksjonaliteten rett og slett bli for tynn til at vi vil gi noen anbe...

  • Apple TV er på mange måder en rigtig spændende medieløsning og den spår ikke mindst om, hvilken retning hele fladskærmsverdenen og Smart TV-tankegangen bevæger sig i. Boksen er lille og streaming over internettet er kommet for at blive. Boksen er ekstr...
