Hi, why are you guys so far away? Come... you can come closer.... It's ok
You can come and sit with me, I'll move these things away, It's ok.
Today, I'm here to review the 4th generation of Apple TV
And here it is.
Now let's compare this box to previous generation Apple TV's box
As you can see it got a little bit bigger, a little bit thicker and a little bit taller
Some papers and stickers
I like it when they wrap the cables like this. Because the others when you open them up they have these corners.
Which I don't like. But this will not have any corners. It's perfect.
This is the cable, electricity cable and this is the remote.
This is the previous generation Apple TV, let's compare it with the new one.
It is just taller, every other dimension seems the same.
No more optical audio out. And instead of micro USB it has an USB-C output
Once you plug in your Apple TV and click on your remote, this is you see.
Select the language and select your region.
And then you can use an iOS device to automatically add your Apple ID and WiFi settings to Apple TV
Which is just great. I'm going to say setup with device.
Now as you can see my iPhone is asking me if I want to setup my Apple TV
Continue... My password is...
Hairy Turkish ball...
Now it is going to send a verification
Continue and then I agree
So as you can see when your Apple TV first launches you have no apps so it looks very lonely
You can turn your TV on and off with just using Siri Remote
The Siri Remote is beautiful, it connects to Apple TV via Bluetooth. So you don't need to point it.
You can turn the TV's volume up and down.
And with my TV's remote I can actually control my Apple TV
As you can see the user interface has changed and it is really nice, I can move things around.
And now there is an App Store.
You can go into the App Store you can download apps.
I really like this new user interface.
One of the problems I'm having is the Menu button and the Home button.
Let's say you're in the settings...
And you are in General, if you want to go back one menu you have to hit the Menu button but I keep hitting the Home button and I go back to this.
You have to get used to that. It get a little tricky.
When you double tap on the menu button, Apple TV goes into Screen saver mode.
And as you can see, now we have these new screen savers they are called Aerial screen savers
And you can decide how frequently it should update'
Daily, weekly, monthly or never!
And when you click the home button twice
You may recognize this multi tasking window, you can switch between apps
Now we have speedtest app, which is one of my favorite apps to use
Having a terrible Internet connection right now.
You can go into your settings and under remotes and devices
You can select learn remote
You can add another remote to your Apple TV
One of my favorite feature is under Audio and Video
And that is Reduce Loud Sounds
What this does is, it compresses the volume to a level so nothing can go surprisingly loud or soft
The remote is really good and then this touch area is really easy to get used to. One thing I can not get used to is I can't rest my finger on the remote.
Because when you do, you're moving things around.
One of the best features, and when I say best, I mean the worst is this keyboard
I don't know who came up with this but it is really difficult to use
One nice feature, since YouTube is an app you can turn off Autoplay! There you go!
Autoplay off!
Also you don't need to scroll or swipe on the remote you can just tap on the direction you want to go.
And it will move.
See this Apple TV has A8 chip in it and it has 2GB of RAM
iPad Air 2 has A8X and 2GB of RAM so you'd imagine there would be a browser in the Apple TV or something more
Or like a full featured Siri.
The Siri we have here is not the same one. It's like a dumb couch potato version of siri.
For example, 2+2
Really? Find music of Alter Bridge
What's the weather like?
Give me information about Apple's stocks
Show me movies by Marvel.
As you can see the results are really neat.
If you have subscriptions to HBO, Netflix ot Hulu or FXNow or the others, when you search for example
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., it will take you to this screen.
Where you can select where you want to watch it. You can watch it on iTunes, Netflix of Hulu.
Which is really nice, you don't have to go through all these services and figure out if they have Agents of Shield
And of course now we have games
Let' me show you Asphalt 8. With Asphalt 8 you can use your remote as steering wheel
Now let's look at another app, this is the Yoga App
Now let's look at the App Store, Top Charts
Categories, there is not much categories so far and then you can see what you purchased and then you can do a search.
If you have the Remote app on your watch or on your Phone, it doesn't work with the new Apple TV yet.
Let's say you're watching this.
When you hold your finger at the top of the remote and swipe down
You get to this screen
And I'm going to turn the subtitles off
And I'm going to say
What did he say?
Turn on subtitles in English
In the 3rg generation of Apple TV I was able to use Flickr as my screensaver
And I was able to use Flickr's Explore section as screen saver, so far I can't do that with this Apple TV
Use as screensaver
It's not available.
And if you want to play games, and if you don't want your remote to fly out of your hand and crash into TV, just like this
Sorry!
Now there is remote loop!
It's only 12.99, I'm going to unbox this. Not going to show it to you!
You just plug this into the Lightning port
Now you can not break your TV. I wonder if it works with iPad/iPhone
Does not work
So let's get to the bend test! Let's see if Apple TV has bend gate or something!
It's not bending! Now let's test the remote!
Let's test this!
Aaaahhh!
You can also get an external controller to use with your Apple TV
But I don't think you can use your Playstation's controller or your XBOX' controller with your Apple TV, probably unless you jailbreak.
Well, thank you very much for watching this video and I hope you enjoyed it.
