buttery smooth?

the older apple tv are sluggish

I never owned the super old ones. Typically Apple TV HD onwards. You can try Apple TV HD and compare to a smart TV in 2015, u see which one can run better.

What are some of the uses if you already have a smart TV like LG or Samsung?

I been using Samsung Smart TV for years, I would say Smart TV just aren’t fast enough to provide that smooth experience. When it lagged, I feel like throwing the TV out of the window.

But can’t comment for those using newer Samsung TV.

I feel Apple TV has its own use, like for those Smart TV without AirPlay, then it will be useful. Or those who don’t want to be tied with TV contract, they can sign those no contract TV services to stream live TV.

Apple TV arrived yesterday. Updated to 16.2 today and now my Apple TV supports Siri commands. Yay to being able to play movies directly with voice control.

Am really impressed with the Apple TV 4K, the tvOS is so intuitive, my mum was able to navigate because of the big buttons.

I also signed up the Singtel Cast, it works smoothly with it as well, finally can cancel the Singtel TV (not a fan of STB rental fee). Just sad that TVBAnywhere+ is not on the App Store, had to use my Android box.

Also keen to know this. I’m using Unlimited VPN and TP Link’s Deco. I can’t seem to set it on the router.

i'm not using mine via the router as it seems i can't set it based on my ISP. instead, using the windows hotspot mode.
