![]() ![]() This may not be a big deal for some, but if you’re looking to take some of the strain off of your 2.4GHz or 5GHz network band, or simply want the absolute best overall streaming experience possible, you’ll need to spend the extra $20 to get the 128GB 2022 unit, or opt for the Apple TV 4K (2021), which includes an Ethernet port on both the 32GB and 64GB versions.Īnd for those concerned with the future of smart home networking, only the 128GB 2022 model supports Thread, a crucial Internet-of-Things protocol that allows IoT standards like Matter to live and operate on your Apple TV 4K. There are two versions of the Apple TV 4K (2022) hitting shelves - a 64GB version and a 128GB version, and only the latter includes the wired Ethernet connection. There’s also a Gigabit Ethernet port for hard-wiring the device to your router, negating the need to hop onto your home Wi-Fi, although there’s a catch here. ![]() Winner: Apple TV 4K (2022) Connections and performance The 2022 Apple TV 4K models: 64GB (top) and 128GB (bottom).īoth the 20 versions of the Apple TV 4K are equipped with HDMI 2.1 outputs, along with HDMI ARC/eARC support for those of us wiring into a Dolby Atmos-ready AV receiver or soundbar. ![]() Thus, for its slightly slimmer chassis and faster-charging remote, the Apple TV 4K (2022) wins this round. ![]() This isn’t an apples-to-apples changeup either, seeing as that USB-C port is going to charge your Siri remote faster than the Lightning connection. Placed next to each other, the 20 Siri remotes look about the same too, with the one key difference being a USB-C charging port for the 2022 version and an Apple-only Lightning port for the 2021 iteration. Sharing the same glossy black outer shell between model years, the newest Apple TV 4K measures 3.7-inches wide, 3.7-inches from front to back, and 1.2-inches tall, making it just a little bit smaller than the 2021 version (3.9 inches by 3.9 inches by1.4 inches). In fact, you really have to place both units side-by-side to see any kind of dimensional differences. To the naked eye, both the 20 Apple TV 4K models look about the same.
