Description

The Apple TV connects to high-definition displays via HDMI connectivity and supports resolutions up to 1080p; an HDMI cable is sold separately. The included rechargeable Siri Remote is equipped with a dual-microphone array that enables you to speak directly into the microphone to quickly find the content youre looking for. You can also use voice recognition to do things like control playback and check the weather. The Remotes multidirectional glass Touch surface is designed to offer intuitive, smartphone-like navigation. The Siri Remote even features Bluetooth connectivity, so it doesnt require a direct line-of-sight when pressing commands. At 3.9" wide, the Apple TV offers a compact foot-print for easy placement near your HDTV.

Siri Remote Control

With Siri, you can quickly search for a movie or TV show across popular services, including content apps such as iTunes and Netflix. All your viewing options are displayed on the screen, so you can see where a movie or show can be found. Youll also see if its available to rent, buy, or watch with a subscription. Dual microphones allow Siri to hear your commands clearly, even if theres background noise.

Touch Siri Remote Surface

The Siri Remote has a glass Touch surface, so you can use your thumb to swipe, scroll, select, and easily navigate around your screen. Simply click anywhere on the glass Touch surface to make your selection. Instead of using traditional fast-forward or rewind buttons, just swipe across the timeline and use the preview frames to pinpoint where you want to go. Every move you make on the remotes Touch surface is mirrored on your television screen. As an added convenience, the Siri Remote can control the volume on your TV or A/V receiver.

User Interface

The user interface in Apple TV has been redesigned to put content at the forefront. Double-click the Home button on the remote and youll see the apps youve used most recently, allowing you to easily switch between apps like Showtime, MLB, and iTunes.
