It will be updated regularly like iOS for iPhone/iPad so the Apple TV will evolve over time. Apple’s new operating system for TVs is named tvOS. If you watch all your TV on Apple TV you can literally use 'Siri Remote' for everything. It even automatically sets up your TV remote to control Apple TV, too, making it possible to use the left/right/up/down and pause/play buttons on your regular remote. To use a famous Apple cliché it just works. HDMI CEC is obviously not a new thing - it has been around for years - but this is the smoothest and most trouble-free way we have ever seen it integrated. And if you Airplay something to Apple TV while the TV is turned off it automatically turns on the TV and starts the video. It even lets you control audio volume and automatically switches over to the correct HDMI port if you are doing something else on the TV and wants to use Apple TV.

It also turns off the TV when you turn off the Apple TV. Without any setup whatsoever, the remote powers on the TV (if it supports HDMI CEC) once you press any button.

But the best new thing is the fact that the new Apple TV supports HDMI CEC, making it much easier to control the TV. There are already examples of that happening. Also, we fear that the glass might break at some point. It takes a little getting used to and sometimes when we picked up the remote from the table we grabbed it upside-down. It has an integrated click mechanism so instead of tapping the touchpad to activate something on screen you press the touch field. The touchpad can be used to navigate menus but also to fast forward and rewind during video playback. It connects to the Apple TV via bluetooth, meaning that you can point in any direction, but it also has IR (as do the box). It is a quality remote unlike almost every TV remote out there and we like the simple layout with only six buttons and a touchpad. The new 'Siri Remote', made from aluminum and glass, feels good in the hand. Some apps use an on-screen menu with a link that you can access from any device with a browser to type a code. Future Apple TVs will be able to reuse the login information if you have done it once already. One would think that the login information could be collected from the iPhone during setup since tvOS is based on iOS, but Apple says that tvOS is considered a “first version”. It will remember your user name so you only need to input the password. One small tip is to find the 'recent' button below the letters after your first login procedure. So you have to manually input text and it takes time. Once you have downloaded the apps you want you have to log in but the new on-screen keyboard is worse - one long line of letters - and the Remote app for iPhone/iPad does not work with the new box yet. Unfortunately, the second step of setting it up is a pain. If you have an 'iDevice' with the latest iOS 9.1 you just place it close to the box and it takes care of setup, including connecting you to your home WiFi. User interface and FeaturesThe first step of setting up the new Apple TV is very elegant. Be aware that there is no HDMI cable in the box so you will need to buy one separately. It is rechargeable via a lighting cable, just like iPhone. The back is made from aluminum - like the old one - but the Siri Remote is quite different. There is also a new 'Siri Remote' with a touchpad on the top, six buttons, including volume controls. The HDMI port now supports CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), which is a great addition that we will elaborate on later. The Apple TV box can now output audio via HDMI or wirelessly via Airplay. We have often seen Apple abandon old but established technologies (see floppy disc, DVD drive) to replace it with something else. Apple has apparently felt that it is time to move on. Toslink was developed by Toshiba in 1983 and even though it is still a popular port it does not support many of the new audio formats. Ports are found on the back and if you own the previous version you will notice that there is no longer an optical - or Toslink - port. There is still no power brick - everything is built into the small 9.8x9.8 cm box that is completely quiet in operation. It has the same glossy body and with an embedded Apple logo on the top. First impressionsThe new Apple TV looks a lot like the old Apple TV except that it is taller.
