The Apple TV 4K can run apps from all the major streaming platforms.Īpple wins the best features category, but it's closer than you'd think given the price difference.īoth boxes deliver the best-quality 4K HDR streaming from compatible apps, as well as Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. The Apple TV features recommendations from a variety of services, not just Apple's own TV Plus subscription service, but if you don't want to use it you won't need to.īoth menu systems are easy and straightforward, making this a tie. Navigation is a bit easier thanks to the addition of a directional "clickpad" to the new Siri Remote and the A12 Bionic processor inside keeps things moving quickly. The Apple TV 4K has a similarly pretty and colorful menu filled with tiles. The app store, found in the left-hand section labeled Streaming Channels, is just as quick and easy to navigate as the main menu. There are no big recommendation tabs of what to watch, or posters of shows or movies cluttering the tiles, though there are some ads on the right side when scrolling through the grid. Responses on the Ultra are super-quick - within seconds I was inside services like Netflix, Disney Plus, Hulu or Sling TV - but the cheaper Express 4K Plus seemed just as fast. A colorful array of app tiles are arrayed in a grid that you can arrange to taste.
