    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.

        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.

    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.
