That's what I said lol
FYI I watch YouTube and Netflix through TCL TV built-in apps
Smart tvs tend do have crappy processors and buffer during hd content. I cut the cable and watch everything through Apple TV. I use it for Plex movie server, share pics and videos with the family.
Need something with Ethernet.
Can't go wrong with either. If you buy most of your movies and tv shows in iTunes I'd say go with Apple TV. Shield will get you Kodi etc tho. I'm tempted to get this even though I have multiple shields just because I like watching through iTunes since they tend to have higher bit rate streams.

This is a good deal for the 2017 4K model. I am not a fan of the remote and have replaced mine with the new version but have to admit that the older remote worked just fine (except for no mute button which I really wanted).

It's just apples version of fire or roku. If you are an Apple guy. You may find extras But if you are happy with your built in smart tv. Don't bother
Plus the Apple TV works as a hub for Homekit.
Very happy with the Apple TV.
I'm sure it depends but I find smart TV apps buggy and frustrating to use. Apple TV feels like a truly premium user experience.

Agreed. Apple TV is more responsive than most other sticks or integrated apps

Really? I thought my Roku ultra iOS or MacOS screen mirroring is easy enough. Just confirm a code. Damn. Maybe it's time for me to finally get this thing since it's on sale.
