The new Apple TV can stream HD 4K TV. Apple’s new hardware puts the company on equal footing with Roku, Amazon, and Chrome, all of which already offer devices capable of 4K streaming. Apple TV 4K will be available on September 22nd for $179 with 32GB of internal storage or $199 with 64GB.

Great review thanks! Honestly I was about to buy one before this review. This made my mind up.
Please Apple take this upscaling stuff out that way my sony a1e can do all the upscaling
YouTube cannot be broadcasted in 4k, is that right?
Most biased review I’ve seen. Now give a review from a regular consumer not a tech geeks perspective. Because it’s doing me great justice.
I think you guys should start doing 4K YouTube uploads as well The Verge (maybe even on HDR)
Does it support Vudu 4k + HDR ? Fandango Now 4k + HDR ? Amazon ? Netflix ?
Nvidia Shield TV is dropping their price to match it by mid october if you don’t need the controller and already have those. Buy that instead.
chutye
Sounds like a great device, because all the things you mentioned that set it back, I don’t care about, or don’t use. Thanks.;
Why care about Atmos when this video, and the last few from The Verge, look like they were shot on potatoes? At 2:06, the lamps to the left and the Campbell’s soup pillow are more in focus than Nilay’s face. At least color grade the video to not look like it’s being shot through a toxic fog.
Most interesting Apple TV 4K review I’ve seen so far with one big caveat. Your main point, Apple’s not supporting YouTube 4K spec is lost st the end. The video editing slowly mutes the audio at the end so it’s nearly impossible to hear clearly.
Oh right, Apple refuses to support an open standard (VP9) when a proprietary one (H.265) exists that they are a large owner in. (i.e. they do not want a non-licensed codec to be the defacto standard.) Sound like Apple to me..
Overpriced and outdated, Apple in a nutshell since Steve Jobs went.
“just say n0, people”
* you feel better
Poor execution
So I just noticed that the xbox one x supports VP9, does it mean that Youtube will… oh nevermind google hates microsoft!
He is so depressing. What is happening to the verge? 🙁
you just saved me 200 bucks. ill wait for the holiday maybe they might push-out an update.
Will I be able to airplay my 4K vids from my 7+ in 4K?
You mean the one marvel movie?
The main thing when talking about the Apple TV is to make sure everyone hates it
Apples price point is ridiculous. I just use usb c to HDMI adapter to watch content from my s8.
Wow, what a review!
When u still gotta 1080 hd tv so…
Yeah, Apple tv is isolated like North Korea.
There’s something about this guy. Not quite sure what it is, I just love watching his reviews.
That apartment tho
Atmos is coming to Apple TV. Also why is he criticizing Apple for what other companies have done? Typical anti-Apple bullshit.
Would the Apple TV 4K work well with a non 4K tv?
So if I don’t have a 4K TV (Plan to get one soon), would it be fine to just get myself the 1080p version? Can untrained eyes tell the difference?
Which is better then? Apple tv, Chromecast or Koku?
Apple users go get shot
It’s been a bad harvest for apple this year.
