Deals: Apple TV 4K Drops to $129.99 on Amazon ($49 Off)
Amazon is discounting the 32GB Apple TV 4K to $129.99 this week, down from $179.00. We saw an all-time low price (around $109) on the Apple TV 4K earlier in July during Prime Day, but since that event ended this is the best deal we've tracked on the 2021 Apple TV 4K.

Top Rated Comments
* More of the metadata on home sharing content displays. Most notably: shows the year for movies. Also, there is the ability to read the whole description on movies where the old Apple TV truncates the descriptions.
* Remote control has volume buttons which serve to adjust the volume on the TV (this eliminates the need to use the TV remote at all while watching movies)
* Default screensavers look amazing. We were probably just getting tired of the old screensavers on the old Apple TV, but these new screensavers are actually a bunch of beautiful slow moving videos
* The new remote wheel area is actually touch sensitive. I have to learn to stop fiddling with the remote while watching a movie as this causes the content to skip around.
* Gigabit Ethernet on the new vs 100 Mbit Ethernet on the old Apple TV. Our outgoing connection to the ISPs are only 100 Mbit, so there's no difference when streaming from the internet, but videos load noticeably faster over home sharing.
* New Wifi protocol support 802.11ax "Wifi 6" (doesn't apply since we use Ethernet)
* Ability to load apps. We are just scratching the surface here initially, but this could turn out to be a very useful feature in the future. We currently have the Epic app (kids books subscription).
* Supports up to 4K resolution. We do not have any plans on replacing our 1080p TV and we don't have any 4K content in our library, but if we want to pursue upgrading in the future, the Apple TV will be ready.
* Overall, the UI is more responsive
