…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:
- Seamless experience of scrolling through different platforms. No lag. Gave new life to my 3 year old 65 inch Sony 4K TV.
- 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?
- 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:
- I did not buy it sooner
- Apple ads failed to convince me to buy it sooner.
- 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.
The most fundamental thing that sets Apple apart from Android. Apple’s seamless experience is because they do their own hardware and OS…plus they have their strict app devs guidelines. Android being open is sounds great but that Android as an OS has been fractured from the start because everyone and their moms wanted to put their own spin on the OS for THEIR hardware. I want tools and appliances to work efficiently and as intended.
