1. No ads
2. Clean UI
3. Best, most up to date streaming apps - Netflix/HBO Max apps are simply best on tvOS
4. Best picture - people will argue about the Shield Pro's AI upscaling but Apple TV's frame rate and content matching and other factors make it the best picture on my Sony OLED
5. Premium remote not a cheap plastic piece of junk with Netflix / Hulu buttons on front
6. Super fast navigation - nothing comes close
7. Ability to multi-task and close out apps instead of restarting the device just like on your phone
And to me the best feature of all that no one mentioned - spatial audio with Airpods 2/3/Pro/Max
If you dont have a huge surround sound system, watch shows when others are sleeping, or even if you do have a big sound system - spatial audio when watching thru Apple TV 4K is amazing. Feels like you are in the theater and absolutely no lag between audio/video. Only device that came close to eliminating the lag was the Shield Pro and that was with locally stored video files not streaming.
$160 is a lot of money to spend but this device will last you at least 3 years where you can sell it for $80 and recoup half what you paid.
If you are on Apple's ecosystem there are many more advantages to this device but most of my Android loving friends have one and they love it

Edit: use the following:
AppleTV service
YouTube TV
Hulu
Peacock
HBO Max
Plex
Tubi
Prime Video
Also cast from iPad, iPhone, Android phone. Any issue with any of the apps or casting in its current version?
I was considering running plex server on the Shield about a year ago, saw a lot of posts about it being very glitchy and hard to configure so dropped that idea. Has anything changed in that regard?
Also, been running Plex client on AppleTV 4K (1st Gen) - no issues whatsoever
i honestly thought the Apple TV wasn't worth the price, owning it for first week I been considering returning it, after awhile I got super used to it and can't go back to anything else...
then few months later Nvidia shield TV pop up on slickdeals i just wanted to try it, felt like its something i can stream my PC games to my bedroom, my god, the UI is ugly, its laggy sometime, youtube always buffer for no reason, wifi drop maybe 2-3 times a week (apple TV never have issue) the only reason why i kept the shield TV is its backlit remote which i like
tbh, i would prefer a $25 fireTV stick over shield TV
long story short, this Apple TV is epic deal, in for 2 more for my parents house

Unfortunately, the fatal flaw of the AppleTV 4K is it's lack of audio support for local movie rips. Doesn't work nice with bitstream. If you don't have a big local library it's an incredible device and far and away the best streamer out there.
I use a Roku Ultra which I'm just okay with, but it's the only way I can watch Dolby Atmos blu ray rips. Maybe Apple will update the OS to support it, but it's been an issue for many years.

Pros app wise for me have been, Google Duo, HD Homerun so I can watch local antenna TV, plex server so I can watch that antenna away from home, YT alternatives that let you skip commercials.
But the best thing has been the AI enhancement to upscale. I like it better than my LG CXs
Anyone use AirFlow on these? I use it for my Chromecast Ultra but looks like it has Apple TV support too. Has the best subtitle support for local files IMO

especially with Apple ecosystem (yes we fell for their marketing trap) everything just work together extremely seamless, as soon as you want to type something in search bar, your iphone will pop up a notification if you want to type something instead of voice/click wheel typing, it support up to 2 airpod at once. screen mirroring is "ok" kinda laggy for me, i really hope one day they will let you play ipad/iphone games with a bluetooth controller honestly that would complete my setup once and for all
