A15 Bionic Chip:

The new Apple TV is equipped with the A15 Bionic chip, which is 50% faster than previous models with the A12 Bionic chip. Apple says this results in improved responsiveness and faster navigation. Apple adds that graphics performance has increased by 30 percent, making games smoother.

4GB RAM:

The new Apple TV comes with 4GB RAM, up from 3GB on the previous model, for improved responsiveness.

128GB storage option: The new Apple TV is available with up to 128GB of storage, compared to a max of 64GB for the previous model.

HDR10+ support: In addition to Dolby Vision, the new Apple TV now supports HDR10+ content in supported apps.

Siri Remote with USB-C port: The new Siri Remote is equipped with a USB-C port instead of Lightning for charging.

Thinner and lighter design: Apple says the A15 Bionic chip’s increased power efficiency allowed for the internal fan to be removed in the new Apple TV, resulting in the device having a more compact design that is around 12% thinner and around 50% lighter than the previous model.

No more “TV” branding on top: The new Apple TV no longer has “TV” imprinted on the top of the device and instead simply has a centered Apple logo.

Lower pricing: The new Apple TV starts at $129 with 64GB of storage, while the previous model started at $179 with 32GB of storage. While you need to spend $149 to get an Ethernet port, Thread support, and 128GB of storage, that’s still cheaper than any of last year’s models.

No charging cable in the box: The new Apple TV ships without a charging cable in the box for the Siri Remote, except in Brazil. Apple sells a new woven USB-C cable separately for $19.

Packaging changes: The new Apple TV comes in a slightly more rectangular box that no longer has outer plastic wrap.

The new Apple TV 4K is available to order now, launching Friday, November 4th in the U.S. and more than 30 other countries.
