If you have the previous-gen Apple TV 4K and are happy with it, then this probably isn’t for you. For everyone else, this is the best overall streaming box around thanks to fantastic app support, great pictures quality and plenty of welcome extras.

Given its high price, the Apple TV 4K has never been the easiest sell, and that hasn’t changed with the £169 2021 update. The vast majority of high-end TVs have very good smart interfaces built in, with support for most popular streaming apps, including Apple’s own - and if they don’t, ...

Though not much has changed with the Apple TV itself, the redesigned Siri remote makes all the difference to the overall experience.

"It’s not worth upgrading if you have the previous model, but if you’re simply looking for the best video streamer out there, this is it"

"Das aktuelle Apple TV 4K ist eindeutig das beste Streaming-Gerät, das Apple bisher angeboten hat. Das liegt vornehmlich an der neuen Fernbedienung, die im Vergleich zum Vorgängermodell ein wahrer Segen ist. Die alte Fernbedienung war aber auch eine enorme Zumutung. Leider ist ..."

"The new Apple TV 4K (2021) retains the elegant style of its predecessor, but packs more power thanks to the A12 chip. The new Siri Remote is very welcome and much easier to use than the previous version. Still, it’s a pricey device compared to other 4K streamers."

"The new remote's a boost, but hardly anything else changed for the 6th-gen Apple TV. Why? There's probably something better coming."

"The Apple TV 4K (2021) is a slick streaming device, which can play 4K video in HDR and Dolby Vision, and supports high-frame-rate HDR to make fast action and sports look smooth and clear. The revamped Siri remote is a pleasure to use, and there are plenty of small but handy features, ..."

"The 2021 update of this set-top box delivers what it sets out to do - packaging streaming services and Apple's own services into one place - but against the competition it feels pricey. But that's ultimately because - through Apple Fitness+ and Apple Arcade - it does more than just ..."
