Published 2021-04-20
Could this streaming box replace Smart TV apps, or does it bring no extra value? Some features include AirPlay, screen mirroring, multi-account and AirPod support. I’ll do a quick unboxing, setup and review of the entire Apple TV offering.
Note: This video was uploaded 3 hours before the Apple event. 99% of this video is still relevant with the new 2021 Apple TV.

The new 2021 Apple TV offers a higher frame rate, a new chip and a new remote. Will anyone be picking it up next month?
-
I love that your videos offers aesthetics and usability more than just features. This combination is rare to find.
-
I need to have this type of aesthetic quality 😭
-
They just announced the newest generation of Apple TV like two hours after you uploaded this lol
-
Your channel is the first I've binged for ages Keep it up
-
I’m watching all your videos cause I’m just amazed and how you shoot everything with your iPhone
-
The Apple TV 4K 32GB is my streaming device of choice and I love it...And yes imo running apps on any streaming device will always be better than running them on just a smart tv.
-
There’s a new one now but even with this model the more intuitive user interface and responsiveness because of the powerful processor makes it worth it to me.
-
perfect timing with the new Apple TV 4K just being announced
-
Hi SpawnPoiint!! Please do that video about quality picture comparing native apps on tv to apple tv, it would be very interesting! Great video as always!
-
Your TV is so BEAUTIFUL! 😩 I’m jealous
-
Crazy you are using your phone to Film this 🙌🏻
-
I'm from Uruguay and I'm learning English and I love your channel, I can understand all yours videos. You're amazing bro.
-
The quality of your videos is INSANE! Love your videos man. Let's see if Apple announces "Apple TV 2021" in today's event.
-
I have an older Hisense 4k TV where the smart functionality is rather slow and dim witted. I bought the one you have and it has transformed the use of the TV for me. Additionally I think it has improved the quality compared to the app on the TV itself. I’d definitely recommend for anyone in a similar situation.
-
I have to agree that streaming does seem to look better via Apple TV vs native app. One of the main things I use the Apple TV 4K is for BT sport. As this is only available on Samsung smart TVs and not LG the app looks amazing when watching 4k hdr content.
-
Finally got one of these just because at this point my tv is old enough that it struggles to run or is losing support for streaming apps. TV still works great, I just need to offload to smart functionality to another device
-
I almost bought one 2 weeks ago glad I waited
-
Great overview! And nice timing, I haven't had an Apple TV in years but I've been considering picking up the new one they announced today, since the UI seems better than my smart TV's apps.
-
“Apple TV 2021” Definitely helpful to have all the streaming apps all in one place and accessible with one remote. Love the headphone feature! Great review.
