From afar, the 3rd generation Apple TV 4K looks like the previous generation…but getting a little closer, there are still some size differences 🤡! New models are already collected 31 mm in height (4 mm less than the previous version), 93 mm in width and depth (5 mm less).
The weight isn’t the same either, as the new generation Apple TV 4K weighs 208 grams (214 grams for the Ethernet version): featherweight compared to the second generation that offered 425 grams on the scale! But where does this big difference come from? Definitely remove the fan!
This is it ” Energy Efficiency From the A15 chip that relieves the Apple TV of a fan, making it possible to lighten not only the weight but also the design of the device, the manufacturer explains in communication.
In the game 7 Differences, we will not forget, of course, the absence of an Ethernet port in the basic version at 169 euros, and a USB-C port for recharging the Siri remote! Unfortunately, Apple did not go so far as to provide a charging cable, it would be very good … even if the manufacturer made this effort before by inserting a Lightning to USB cable in the boxes of previous Apple TV models.
But after all, Apple doesn’t provide an HDMI cable anymore, which would be very good for a premium streaming TV box. Small consolation: This compact design, new packaging, and lighter weight all reduce your Apple TV’s carbon footprint by 25%.
