We're big fans of this streaming device, calling it the best in our Apple TV 4K (2022) review, and for good reason – as the latest from Apple, this small box builds on the features offered by the previous model to provide a more compact device with a stack of new features.
From HDR10+ support to USB-C charging on the Siri remote, the Apple TV 4K (2022) made some big leaps from the Apple TV 4K (2021), and comes in at a cheaper cost. Anyone looking for a convenient way to access some of the best streaming services will get that and much more from this streaming box, especially since the arrival of tvOS 17, which added karaoke and FaceTime integration to its long list of features.
With access to Apple Arcade, and support for a wide range of Bluetooth controllers, you can even enjoy gaming on the Apple TV 4K – making it a full-fledged multimedia centre. Additionally, it also has HomeKit integration and AirPlay features that make it compatible with a wide range of Apple devices including AirPods, so you can control your TV without reaching for the remote and listen to your favourite shows or music without disturbing others.
The included Siri Remote offers a variety of control options, including the traditional point and click, or ability to use the touch-enabled clickpad to select what you want to watch. You can even use your voice thanks to its built-in microphone, plus, if you’re ever stuck for something to watch, Siri’s right there with suggestions based on your viewing history.
The 2022 Apple TV 4K is also a Thread and Matter router, so you can use it to connect to smart devices that have either or both of these connectivity standards and control them. So there's more to this little box than just streaming smarts.
