The all-new box also adds a faster A12 Bionic processor, support for high-frame rate HDR and the ability to calibrate your TV picture using your iPhone camera. But is it worth $180? CNET Editor David Katzmaier reacts to the news.

#Apple #finally #remote
Does anyone remember the characters in Honey I Shrunk the Kids? Specifically the dads 😏☝️
Best news ever , love my Apple TV hate the remote
That color-calibrater thing is the one thst draws my attention the most.
Yeah but it’s definitely way pass time for a pvr and hdtv tuner on Apple TV
The auto calibration feature is also available on the Apple TV HD and previous generation Apple TV 4K as its part of the latest software.
Does anyone know if you could buy a replacement controller for your Apple TV. My glass part is almost shattered 😂
Awesome. Now Apple give us some more worthwhile TV App Channels to go with it.
Apple sucks . The lack of apps compared to the competition is horrible
This is pretty awesome, you can even play a ton of amazing games (no IAP, etc) for a few bucks per month, but you should probably grab an PS/XBOX controller ^^
Apple TV HD also seems to come with the new remote now!
Can the new remote change inputs of the tv? If not you still need your tv remote…
I’m waiting for the real upgrade this tv box is a small upgrade than a refresh. I’ll just buy the remote separately
I want this new remote. Do they sell it separately ?
THE APPLE TV YOU TUBE APP ALSO NEEDS TO BE UPDATED ON THIS DEVICE 4K VIDEOS AND HIGH FRAME RATE VIDEO LOOKS LIKE CRAP ON THE YOU TUBE APP FOR APPLE TV
I have never used the Apple TV Remote. In fact I do not use any remotes. I use my iPhone or iPad to control my TV. In fact I waited, quite a while, until there was an app for the Apple TV before buying the Apple TV. Now, the control is built into iOS. I can hardly imagine paying $70 for one more thing to get lost in the sofa cushions.
But will it have the airtag built in…..
After 7 years, the Click Wheel is back!
$200+ for a remote.. 🥴
Why buy this compared to the IPhone Remote App?
Need a 4k for the man cave. I will buy the new one and put in the living and take older 4k for the man cave. Also have to purchase a new remote because somehow its lost in my own home. 3rd gen can go in the guest room.
can’t believe they didn’t include their U1 chip and add it to their Find My network. how is that not the most requested feature for a TV remote of all time?
It’s all about the remote, the old remote was one of the worst products Apple ever made, especially if you have tremors it’s nearly impossible to use. I’m putting my Apple TV 4K on ebay today and will order once it sells. With the cost to buy the remote, fact you get a lightning cable with it and a year of Apple TV+(evenjhough it sucks) it’s worth the upgrade cost.
The old one looks so much better
will the controller be compatible with the older 4k apple tv?
Hey David, will you get a review unit before May 21st? Love to see this remote in actual usage asap. Curious how effective the wheel scrubber works compared to previous gen remote.
I got an Apple TV 4K for Christmas, prob gonna get the new remote, sometimes I use my DualShock 4 I have other use for now as a have a ps5 for the menus, I just want a power button lol
Better remote? It’s an iPpod Nano from 2006 (minus the video camera enhancement). Regurgitating their tossed tech and making loyalists pay for it (because they will) is kinda criminal. But then again, keeping all your profits out of the country to avoid taxation is pretty criminal too, but who’s really paying attention to that stuff anyway?
The Apple TV remote is awful. I bought a generic remote and paired it quite some time back. I won’t be shelling out another $60 for this new remote.
Like everyone else, I will just upgrade the remote. The auto calibration works pretty well on the current gen unit.
Please tell me Apple are not bringing back the worst remote in history with that stupid wizz wheel design.
Can u hold up your iPhone X Max to it to make that feature work or do u need a iphone 11 or 12 or newer
I do like the siri button better on the side like the iphone has it on the side so it makes more room on the remote😉
Is YouTube and Kodi on this??
I mena can you install kodi on tbis??
The remote was fine before. Felt more premium and advanced.
I was distracted by the hole in the ceiling! Next time pan right a little bit…though that room so unfortunate I don’t think it’ll help much.
Anyone know where I can get a silicon cover for this?
Coming from a 10-year-old Apple TV I needed a new one — obviously… If I were to only need a new remote I figure the $60 price tag would be well worth it. How can a remote control be so great…
1- quickly open a new app with Siri
2 — new trackpad becomes intuitive very fast
3- having a mute button on it is well worth it — not having to dig up the television remote — Same applies for the volume and ability to start and shut down both with one power button.
4- the size is just right in the hand — the flat sides (ala iPhone 12) is gold
5- Rechargeable battery
how do you skip ads in YouTube with the new remote?
Got the remote separately since I already was happy with my 4K Apple TV. Works great, but now for some reason HBO Max just changed their on-screen controls and they are 100% jacked for using with the new remote. Hope they get the message soon and fix it.
Upgrade from tv4K to tv2021?
ofc NO.
I am not able to play motion games on it
