The new remote is great. The swiping takes a little getting used to. (I suggest slowing down the sensitivity in settings.) Otherwise
It looks great
And it feels great in your hand. It's not perfect
But it's the best set-top box remote I've used and I'v

The new Apple TV delivers the most polished video experience today
With speedy reactions and a familiar yet attractive interface. It has the best remote on the market. Siri's voice search makes finding stuff to watch even easier
Really slick interface
Siri can be excellent
App Store is growing well…
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

The editors didn't like
No 4K support
No iPhone app
No Bluetooth keyboard support
App discovery could be better
Siri search doesn't work for music
Apple TV more expensive
Typing is a chore on Apple
The walled garden is rubbish
But I wouldn't expect anything different from Apple. There is hope
Since the new Apple TV will get new apps and new ways to explore content. For now
It kind of feels like that first generation of iOS where you could use any
Expensive
Lacking apps
Half
Baked Siri
Not enough content yet
Remote needs work
Lacking some key apps
Siri Remote can irk
Apps from most major UK terrestrial channels are missing
As are services such as Sky's Now TV and Amazon Video. Apple TV costs more than similar devices such as the Roku
Amazon Fire TV and Chromecast. Non-entertainment apps aren't very compelling yet
…but some key apps are missing
Text entry is really bad
No 4K
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
Lack of apps
High price
No 4K future-proofing
Onscreen keyboard is torturous to use
Limited genrebased listings on App Store
No YouTube 4K or Amazon (yet)
Upscaling not always perfect
Remote not great for gaming
Automatic upscaling not always a benefit
Some key apps missing
Need to be an iPhone user to get the most out of it
Sparse app store
Parental controls need tightening
Expensive hardware purchase
Many 4K TVs offer same streaming services
No Dolby Atmos sound (yet)
No way to type a password using the Remote app
New onscreen keyboard is torturous to use
Bluetooth keyboards aren't supported
Does not support 4K
No optical digital audio port
Lacks some key apps
No expandable storage
No Dolby Atmos support
Single format output
No auto refresh rate selection
Remote can be annoying
Still very US-centric
There are no apps for All 4
My5 and ITV Hub instead
You need to play these on your iPhone or iPad and use AirPlay
Doesn't come with a HDMI cable you'll need to purchase one separately

Dolby Vision struggles to outperform HDR10, Still waiting on Dolby Atmos audio
Dolby Vision concerns aside, the new Apple TV 4K can squeeze the most out of the latest televisions. Google and Amazon offer 4K rivals, but if your lounge room is blessed with a Ultra HD screen and is wedded to the Apple ecosystem then this is the streami...
The Apple TV feels like it had painstaking attention paid to some places—the Aerial screensaver, for instance, is gorgeous, with gently moving videos of lovely places around the world, from San Francisco to New York to Hawaii. But I'd trade it in an insta...

Lacking some key apps, Siri Remote can irk, No 4K support
In all, then, this new Apple TV is a bit of a mixed bag, and fairly expensive compared to the competition. Rather than promising the future of television, it provides something awfully akin to existing competing boxes. Fortunately for Apple, it does so in...
