The new Apple TV 4K adds HRD10+ and Dolby Vision, bumps the default storage capacities, and keeps Ethernet only on the more expensive model.
The new models cost $129 for 64GB storage and Wi-Fi or $149 for 128GB storage and an Ethernet port. Prior models started at $179 for a 32GB model. Both newer models run on the A15 Bionic, the chip that powers Apple's iPhone 13 lineup. That should provide a speed and responsiveness bump for those who game on their Apple TV. It will also likely help enable the newest output options: HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and the now-typical audio arrays of Dolby Atmos 7.1 and 5.1.

Apple is sticking with the much-improved silver aluminum slab remote design that is a lot easier to use and to find in a couch than the prior black-glass touchpad model. This third-generation remote charges with USB-C, replacing the Lightning connection on the prior model. Sadly, Apple has still not implemented a Find My function into the remote, nor does it offer a way for the remote to emit a sound to help find it.
