...hasn't been into my life sooner.

Being an Apple sheep since iPhone 3G, I can't believe I have only now discovered AppleTV.

If I had used it sooner, I could have saved at least 200 days worth of life navigating through Android TV lag.

My top 3 Pros/Cons in the first week of AppleTV 4k:

Pros:

  1. Seamless experience of scrolling through different platforms. No lag. Gave new life to my 3 year old 65 inch Sony 4K TV.
  2. Picture is crisper compared to Android. Visually, this is what I've experienced. I don't know if it's got to do with their processing or it's just a placebo?
  3. No more shi*ty remote that breaks easily or goes missing. Can use my iPhone too. Go ahead and destroy/hide the TV remote for the 10th time, kids...Jokes on you!!

Cons:

  1. I did not buy it sooner
  2. Apple ads failed to convince me to buy it sooner.
  3. Minor depression from the realisation fact that I lost ~200 days of life from AndroidTV lag

Do not make the same mistake as me. Do yourself a favour and get an AppleTV.

I felt the same way in the beginning… Now it’s just endless issues with audio being sent to the soundbar. Dolby Atmos doesn’t seem to work, plus the Apple TV 4K CONSTANTLY restarts by itself. Not sure if I got a dud, but taking it back to see if it can be repaired or replaced. (only purchased a few months ago). None of these issues were present in the beginning.
