Apple TV HD is now available for just $69.99, the lowest price yet. The new model has a faster processor and 4K Ultra HD support, making it the perfect choice for anyone looking to upgrade their entertainment experience. ..
The Apple TV HD is a lower-end model of the Apple TV 4K. At a surface level, it’s seemingly identical. It has the same redesigned Siri remote controller and the same basic outside design. However, its internals change a bit. After all, this device only goes up to 1080p, while the Apple TV 4K goes up to, well, 4K.
The device has 2GB of RAM and 10/100 Ethernet rather than gigabit Ethernet. It also gets Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.0, as well as Apple’s older A8 SoC rather than the newer A12 Bionic. This older chip is what’s used in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and those phones were released in 2014, so admittedly, this looks a bit dated. However, this isn’t a phone and you’ll only use it for streaming.
With the Apple TV HD, you get full access to Apple’s video subscription service, Apple TV+, as well as other video streaming services like Netflix. You also get access to Apple Fitness+ for at-home workouts with your Apple Watch, and Apple Arcade for unlimited, ad-free games.
Normally, this device goes for $150. With the Apple TV 4K costing just $30 more ($50 if you go for the 64GB model), the 4K model was probably the smarter purchase. However, the Apple TV HD is now down to $100, making it a must-get if you’re invested in the Apple ecosystem and you haven’t made the switch to 4K.
