I setup three original Apple TVs in our home in our guest Bedroom, Living Room and Master Bedroom several years ago and we love them. The Guest Bedroom is connected via WiFi and the other two are hardwired for the best performance. I sat out the 2021 update, but I pre-ordered two of the new Apple TV 128GB models with ethernet ports as soon as they appeared in the Apple Store. Looking forward to seeing if we notice any performance improvements over our older units.

Thank you Shane for another great informative video. As a 2017 4K owner I will be upgrading. Ethernet of course. One thing to keep in mind is that since Apple updated to the A15 Bionic, then maybe, just maybe there is something coming with integration on the new Apple TV that will require the A15. Something like the as of yet unannounced Apple AR/VR headset?? Just my 2¢

Excellent summary - we currently have four Apple TVs, and I think we’ll probably pick up a a couple of new ones (with Ethernet) to replace a 2017 4k model and an original 2015 HD model, which has recently started to act up. Like you, I see no reason to upgrade the two 2021 models we purchased last year, which are still working great. But year-over-year upgrades are rarely worth it. Bummer they eliminated Ethernet and Thread support from the base model, but I’m grateful for the overall price cut.

These people are not Apple guys, or they wouldn't be having this conversation. There is no reason to OWN ANY APPLE DEVICES if you look at things that way. You can just buy the absolute CHEAPEST generic kit and it will work just the same. But it will feel like trash compared to Apple stuff. Look I get it, I didn't like to swallow that extra cost either. BUT I recognise that luxury costs money.

I have 2 of the 2021 models which initially had a hard time with my Denon AVR and Netflix. Netflix resolved itself with firmware upgrades, so I'm hoping the hardware was updated beyond the A15 chip. I still have one 2017 version which I will replace with one of the 2021 versions. Mainly for more complete tread support. Someone gets a Christmas present because I keep all the boxes. The 2021 version had a real problem with pops and dropouts when using ATMOS.

What kind of issues did you have with your Denon? Every once in a while my tv will say there's no signal coming from the Apple TV on the hdmi I assigned it in my Denon AVR . Happens if I switch sources without turning the Apple TV off first. The issue doesn't happen with my other sources using the same HDMI port so I know its the Apple TV being weird. Hoping upgrading to these newer models will fix it.

@@Andersljungberg Today you COULD do everything with HDMI cable, but in reality its one of the biggest mess in the tech industrie, there are like 6 kind of HDR, 10 kind of sound format, CEC should work with everything, but in action there are many problems with it. Also HDMI has multiple versions and even the same version has multiple implementation of speed and technology. Like normal, arc, earc. Also earc its also TV specific what format they can passthrough or not. So as you are fine with youtube and netflix you gonna be fine with the built in applications, new TVs has decent speed, there is no need for a seperate media box. For higher category where you want to use your own sound system you will need a media box to drive that with a proper audio format and this is where AppleTV sucks. Many years before sure, TVs had trash performance and apple tv or an android box was a nice upgrade but now they are just useless for everyday use or they lach the technology for higher end use.

Shane, Again, another good video. I have the 1st Apple TV with the hard drive and through the years have purchased them up to the 2021 models. I'm happy to see Apple drop the price $50.00 and double the storage. I would probably purchase the higher end, 2022 128gb, Apple TV for the Thread capability. By the way, which version of Bulldog do you have, Z-Wave Plus or WiFi? I'm interested in having that protection in the case of a leak. Thanks.

@ShaneCreates Жыл бұрын

Hey Aaron, thanks for watching! I have actually used both versions of the Bulldog. The Z-Wave one is great if you have a Z-Wave hub already that you can use it with. Something like SmartThings. I have the Think Z-Wave Hub that actually supports HomeKit natively, but it's only available right now in the EU (I got an early US version for testing). So if you don't have a Z-Wave hub, I'd go for the wifi version, especially if you want to use homebridge. It works great and don't need an additional hub. It uses the eWelink app which can be used very easily in Homebridge if you want to go that route like I did. The homebridge integration has been solid.

Helpful video. I have an old Apple TV HD that works fine. My TV is an old Samsung from probably 2010. I’ve never previously given serious thought to upgrading the Apple TV on the assumption my current TV can’t make full use of the better 4K quality picture. However I’m now starting the build a smart home and adding cameras. Questions: Will the A15 chip make a difference in the functioning or reliability of my smart home? I don’t know if my Apple TV supports threading. Assuming not, since I’m adding cameras do you recommend upgrading to thread? Thanks!

@ShaneCreates Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching Bob. It depends on which Apple TV you currently have. The A15 could be a good upgrade from an older Apple TV (pre 2021). If you are getting into smart home, having a thread border router is something I would strongly consider, although Apple TV is not the only way to accomplish that. The HomePod minis also serve as thread border routers.

@JasCar1967 Жыл бұрын

Seems to me the lower end model is more like the old appleTV HD as that doesn’t have thread either. I don’t think they removed thread from the 4K, rather they added 4K support to the HD.

@marcopallotta1452 Жыл бұрын

Great comparison Shane. However I think the thoughts are a little different. In fact you don’t have to compare Apple TV 4K base model with previous version of 4k model: previous lineup was built by HD model and 4k model. The first was the base one. So Apple replaced HD model with 4k base model and I think that respect the old model (that I still use in my living room ) it is a huge upgrade (ok they removed utp cable but for example the old HD had it but it supported an old utp protocol not more usable nowadays ): like the previous base model (HD) it hasn’t thread so I think its target is for the ones that don’t want to have an HomeKit hub (I am a great fan of HomeKit and I use it with HD and I was thinking to upgrade it just for the lack of thread support). So in this thought Apple has increased the base model price not lowered it as it did, unfortunately, with every device this year.

My view is pretty similar to yours. Given the lower price it's hard to complain about the new top-end model, but I don't see why they even bothered with the lower-end model. Maybe they have customers who want/need *one* AppleTV which has matter support, but are also buying 3-4 other AppleTV's for the same house, and those people would want to save $20. But I'm really grasping at straws there.

@nzpc2005 Жыл бұрын

I kind of see your point but I actually think the removal of ethernet and thread from the base model makes total sense. It allows them to drop the price to a point that potentially attracts a whole new market of people and specifically this is targeting your every day common man who wants to enjoy a good streaming setup but has no interest in fancy home automation or the performance of a hard wired connection. For most consumers honestly that stuff doesn't matter much, but the lower price will so its a smart move. For those of us who do care about those features the new high end model is only $20 more and is still cheaper than the equivalent previous generation models so it's a no brainer win all around in my opinion.

@@ShaneCreates By the way, I had followed your recommendation....just a few days before watching the video. COSTCO had the 2021 4K 64 for $99 online. So, I ordered one. It hasn't arrived yet. We have a 3rd gen Apple TV (not 3rd gen 4K!) that we really never use because Dish is our service and we use two, built in Roku TVs. The Apple added nothing for us. Even in our Homekit based smart home with more than 50 devices. I wanted a way to integrate our Arlo security cameras into the TV. Something I could do with a HomeKit enabled Apple TV. And, I wanted to switch to streaming services from Dish (which we've had for more than 30 years). So, I'd been considering an upgrade for a while but didn't want to pay nearly $200. And frankly, I was (and still am) dreading having to explain to my wife that now we use the Apple TV and the Apple remote and ignore Roku and switching between attached devices all together. The TV just becomes a monitor for the Apple TV "processor". It will be a challenge. 😅 Wish me luck.

Can you download music and turn off your wifi and still play ur music

I agree with you on a lot. But I think the base model is just fine for those who already have a homepod (for threat support) and don‘t want to use LAN cabling at all in their household, maybe because of the layout of their rented flat

That is true. I just think that for an extra $20, it would be worth it... "just in case." Maybe it's just me, but I tend to move things around and change up my setup. This way, you got it if you need it or ever change your mind down the road.

@@ShaneCreates I’m planning to get the Ethernet model. I heard from apple sales guy that thread only works when connected through Ethernet. Is that true, please confirm so that I can get one. Thanks 🙏

If you ser the video that is in Dolby vision needs then that could be an important question. But one question supports the new higher audio sampling rate higher 48 kHz Thus, those who are interested in Hi-res music on eg Apple music or music with spatial sound in headphones that Apple music supports

Is it possible that apple think people will buy one Apple TV 4K with ethernet for main tv and HomeKit, and some with wifi only for secondary tv, like kids.

If you are a home theater buff ands watch a lot. It’s totally worth it. I found that picture dynamic range seemed better but also most importantly the video scrubbing and even the audio seemed slightly improved over the 2021z nobody seems to be reviewing the AV quality or doing a genuine high end gear comparison I also use a second unit rigorously for music and Apple fitness with various AirPlay speakers. The 2021 was buggy when it came to volume control and audio. The 2022 is Instant and fast

What’s a better Hub device? An Apple TV or a HomePod Mini?

@ShaneCreates Жыл бұрын

Both work fine as homekit hubs. One could argue that a hard-wired Apple TV could be better due to the ethernet connection. But no issues using a HomePod mini. And of course now you have to consider thread NOT being on the base model Apple TV. Thread is supported in the higher end Apple TV and the HomePod mini.

I’m only getting so I can put my 2021 model in a different room. Then new one in our main living room. My wife is used to the AppleTV interface.

I'm a Google guy but have to keep up with Apple stuff for potential gifts as my brother is in the Apple ecosystem. I love the Chromecast, but man, I wish that they would have a another model that was a more robust unit like this, rather than only having the dongle version. That much faster CPU and extra RAM is really noticeable.
