Why wouldn’t you spend 30 more and get the latest and greatest from Costco?

Be aware that Gen2 devices will have increasing limited app support. (I recently replaced my parent's Apple TV because the main app they use was updated and no longer supported it.)

I wish companies would keep consistent and easily understandable product numbering. Tbh, I have no idea where this falls in the timeline of product releases.

There have only been 3 generations of the Apple TV 4K. This is the 2nd.

[–] Aleyla@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I looked it up. There’s been 8 versions of Apple TVs released.

In my house i have a 3rd gen, an HD, and two 4ks no idea which release. So when I see someone say “2nd gen” I’m wondering why they would pay for such an old device.

So, yeah, it would be nice if they called the current ones Apple TV 2023 or Apple TV 8.

I’m seeing 2022 AppleTV 64gb with Ethernet for 129…

[–] gmcmoz21@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I work @ Costco it was $99 for 3rd gen 4k last time i checked

[–] gmcmoz21@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nope back up to $125 but it’s 3rd gen 64gb

I want aptv to add the vpn option

[–] Santino_18@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

They did. Tvos 17 has VPN support.

It’s a crapshoot buying electronics from woot. They have a short warranty and you can have trouble returning defective gear.

Check Amazon for a similar price but for only a few dollars I’d suggest new.

[–] cwhiterun@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Could’ve bought it yesterday from Apple for $25 off plus a $25 gift card.

[–] Representative-Cow47@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

No they have not released it yet. I am going to try the 7 day trial since I paid for ss for a year membership

[–] jmatech@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I just got 3rd gen refurbs from apple doe $109 w/64gb

[–] mjmercury23@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Can we side load apps into this?

[–] williaminla@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Woot is trash. Costco is cheaper
