4
00:00:11,639 --> 00:00:21,080
dislike button go ahead and hit it for the Apple TV Generation 3 so this is the

5
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:26,720
first Apple unboxing I've done in quite a while and I am pretty excited to check

6
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:32,160
this out because it supports great Apple features like airPlay from my iPhone

7
00:00:30,759 --> 00:00:39,079
and my iPad onto my Apple uh HD TV no actually

8
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:43,000
they don't have a TV that never really materialized I was sort of disappointed

9
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:47,520
about that more from a curiosity standpoint than anything else so the Gen

10
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:51,960
3 player is the main advantage is airPlay so it does have wireless end

11
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:57,000
which allows you to uh mirror the display on your other device whether

12
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,760
it's a Gen 2 or up iPad or an iPhone 4

13
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:03,039
or up which happens to be exactly the iPhone 4 and the iPad that I have and

14
00:01:01,079 --> 00:01:07,600
that is what I need it for because I need to do a demo using it and mirroring

15
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:12,680
from an iOS device so that's why I bought it I'm aware there's no jailbreak

16
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:17,240
I'm aware that you can't run a bunch of different apps on it because Apple's

17
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:21,759
really locked down what you can run on this device uh through the App Store and

18
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:26,479
the jailbreak keeps being promised but hasn't really materialized and all that

19
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:31,560
uh good stuff so what has it got it's got a single core A5 processor it

20
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:37,399
supports 10 1080p unlike the previous generation uh Apple TV it has support

21
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:43,600
for Netflix YouTube Vimeo Hulu actually just got an update with Apple's 6 point

22
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:45,439
something. 3 uh iOS update so that's

23
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:52,079
that's pretty cool supports Wireless N or100 Ethernet and it was

24
00:01:49,719 --> 00:01:59,280
$109.99 which makes it more expensive than something like a pivos zos which is

25
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:00,799
in a similar um size sort of form factor

26
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:06,520
and does offer quite a lot of functionality using XBMC as well as uh

27
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:11,440
as Android for for the OS so you can actually use XBMC on top of Android on

28
00:02:08,599 --> 00:02:15,160
that device or you can use XBMC running natively on that device and this is

29
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:19,280
actually supposed to be an Apple TV unboxing not a pivos zos unboxing so I'm

30
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:25,640
not going to talk about it too much more but you should check it out if you haven't already I know the guy who runs

31
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:27,959
pivos actually really good guy so anyway

32
00:02:25,640 --> 00:02:32,120
here's Apple's remote which is much less functional than the uh than the optional

33
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:36,000
air mouse remote that's available with the zos here I'm talking about it again

34
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:40,519
which has like an onscreen pointer that you can kind of go like this so this is

35
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:42,920
just your basic right left up down menu

36
00:02:40,519 --> 00:02:47,680
uh play and pause it's got a metal finish to it which is nicer than the zos

37
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:51,800
one it's actually feels like really good but the disadvantage of something like

38
00:02:49,519 --> 00:02:56,440
this is it could easily get lost in a couch cushion or uh you know in a

39
00:02:54,480 --> 00:03:00,920
blanket or in like a butt crack or anything it could actually easily fit in

40
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:05,680
any of those things so um you know cleavage so we're going to go ahead and

41
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:09,440
take off the protective cover Apple knows that this device is way too glossy

42
00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:13,159
and is bound to get scratched so they go ahead and cover that up for you it's uh

43
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:17,920
constructions very nice I mean I'll do my trademark iPhone size comparison here

44
00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:22,360
guys not going to be doing that for long going to be switching to the HTC1 really

45
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:25,319
really soon for my smartphone I'm already carrying it around and

46
00:03:23,599 --> 00:03:29,920
installing some apps on it so I'm almost ready to go uh the bottom has a non-slip

47
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,239
rubber no it's not really non-slip at all is it that's a shame okay well the

48
00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:36,599
bottom has an Apple logo which makes it higher performance and the top has an

49
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:41,439
Apple logo which actually gives it double the performance of other media

50
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:46,280
players enabling it to run 1080p which is basically Space Age Technology over

51
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:52,360
HDMI so at the back we've got just a simple power in HDMI micro USB which you

52
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:56,079
can use to sync to your Mac or your other computer or whatever else an

53
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:59,959
optical audio out which I actually do like to see you know what this is

54
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:03,079
probably like the number one thing that I was really surprised about on this cuz

55
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:08,239
there's some media players that only support HDMI out which is great if you

56
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:11,560
have a receiver that supports uh audio over HDMI but if you have an older

57
00:04:09,959 --> 00:04:15,760
receiver it might still be expensive it might still be a great receiver with

58
00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:19,199
great amp and all that kind of stuff and it doesn't support audio over HDMI then

59
00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:22,400
you're pretty much boned so it's nice to have that Optical uh there's your 1000

60
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,759
Ethernet and I think that's pretty much it thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the Apple TV

61

other computer videos and of of course I hope you noticed in this video that

63
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:36,039
we're really stepping up the professionalism here in terms of our

64
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:40,440
