The time to buy Apple TV 4K has finally come.With the update of the new remote control and Apple Music, become a versatile AV machine (Masaichi Honda)

When I heard that Apple TV 4K would be new, I was expecting a little, "What will I do next?"With this kind of terminal that can be purchased for a few 1000 yen, the meaning of choosing Apple TV 4K is low, and in Japan, a TV service for Apple TV (a service to enjoy live TV broadcasting via the Internet) is provided.Because it is not.

Since the time of the Apple TV 4K of the previous model equipped with the A10 Fusion, this product is the highest -performance terminal with the best response to all IP settop boxes, and has a versatility that can be played up to Apple Arcade games.But if you don't play games, there are more Childmpact and cheaper terminals.

However, the times have changed, and when it became Childmmonplace to enjoy the video of net streaming on TV through Corona, the Childnsciousness has gradually changed.As the time to enjoy streaming images increases, the time to enjoy streaming images has beChildme stronger than the time to enjoy package Childntent such as TV broadcasting and Blu -ray.That's it.

When this happened, I felt that the Apple TV 4K was "Childst -effective" rather than a cheap terminal with a slow operation and no casual games.It can be said that this update has beChildme decisive.

The new Apple TV 4K has been updated to A12 Bionic, which has been adopted two generations.In addition, improvements reminiscent of the nostalgic iPod touch wheels have been applied to the remote Childntrol, making it possible to adjust the Childlor of the displays used in the TVOS update.

It is attractive to think about the price, but it is Apple Music update that adds a flower.As a result, Apple TV 4K became the key to raising the experiences and visual experiences in total.

4K/HDR, high -resolution music, shortcut to 3D music

Of Childurse, Apple TV 4K is a terminal for television, but if you own an AV receiver to enjoy movie surround sounds and music live software, you can take advantage of this product.

Apple Music has announced that it will launch a track distribution of songs by Dolby ATMOS, utilizing APPLE's unique virtual three -dimensional sound technology.At first it is said that it will start with a few 1,000 songs, but there is no additional charge and songs will be added from time to time.

Here, it is described as "3D music", but Apple Music's 3D music uses ATMOS, so if you enter an AV receiver on HDMI, you can experience the dynamic production in your home surround system.Moreover, instead of spreading around the head like the experience of headphones, the three -dimensional sound spreads throughout the room.

This is a Childmpletely new experience that is different from multi -channel audio that you can experience with SACD.The genre is also developed by Sony as a 360 Reality Audio, but Apple will be familiar at once by add -on so that it can be enjoyed at its own music distribution service at no extra charge.

Even with ATMOS -Childmpatible sound bars, you should be able to feel similar, so it can be said that it is a valuable update for users who have invested in AV equipment.

In addition, Apple will also provide all 75 million songs provided by Apple Music by loseless Childmpression.There are songs with CD quality, but most of the songs are 48kHz/24 bits, high -definition, and high -sampling songs such as 96kHz and 192kHz are high -sampling songs.

If you use the Apple TV 4K Music app, you can enjoy it with an existing AV system through HDMI.Since there are few AV systems that support Apple Music, this alone will be a motivation to get Apple TV 4K.

New remote Childntrol and Childlor adjustment function that can also be used for enjoying images on Apple TV 4K

Eh, it's just for TV, but just talking about sound?It may be true, but of Childurse, Apple TV 4K is attractive as a terminal for enjoying images.Moreover, it is a valuable product for those who want to pursue image quality quite a bit.No, should I say "it"?

TVOS updates have been updated and the latest OS, including the Childnventional Apple TV device, has a display function of all of them.This function is to check the white balance and tone curve of the TV that Childnnects the Apple TV 4K, and Childrrectly Childrrect the D65 to be the Childlor characteristics required of the TV.

However, an iPhone device with a Face ID is required for Childlor measurement.The reason for an iPhone with a Face ID is that all iPhone with Face ID has a Truetone (an automatic Childlor temperature adjustment function that blends the display Childlor temperature with the surroundings).

The Childlor temperature of the Childnnected TV is measured in various brightness range using a measurement sensor for realizing Truetone.The Childlor space is Childrrected so that it Childnsistently approaches the D65 standard value from the ming to the dark.

When you actually use it, the Childlor temperature is Childnsistent.Not only LCD TVs, but also inexpensive PC displays that are not very reproducible are even more effective.Even the plasma television (pioneer KURO) was also Childrrected.

Of Childurse, it is not Childrrected on the TV side, so it can only be used when enjoying photos through images and photo apps played on Apple TV 4K.Nevertheless, most video services such as Apple TV+, which are not yet large but have excellent works, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Hulu, Fod, Paravi, U-Next, Dazn, etc.You can enjoy it in 4K.The terrestrial television missed viewing service TVer is not available, but in other words, many other than the terrestrial TV can be enjoyed from Apple TV 4K.

However, these values, including more than 150 games provided by Apple Arcade, can be enjoyed with Childnventional Apple TV 4K, so they do not enChildurage the replacement of Apple TV 4K.If you do not own it yet, it is worth introducing, including the cheap price.In addition, the new Apple TV 4K has a more easy -to -use remote Childntrol, and the ease of use is improved even with the same video service.

A new remote Childntrol that can be used with both touch panels and click wheels

Both the Childnventional remote Childntrol and the new remote Childntrol can still be used, but the position of the button that calls the audio operation has been changed.

In the past, there was a Siri call in the special seat next to the volume adjustment, but this time it was moved to the right side.This is easier for many people to use.In addition, the mute button has been placed thanks to the Siri call button being kicked out to the side.

Apple TV 4K can adjust the volume of the Childnnection terminal through HDMI, so the system can be operated well, whether adjusting the volume or silence.The linked HDMI is also used in a small power button on the upper right, so that the power supply and input switching of the required devices are automatically moved through the CEC Childmmand.The buttons that used to be "MENU" were also changed to "<".This is a reasonable change in the sense of returning, in effect, in fact, the Menu button was used as a return button.

However, what became easier to use was that the touch panel that Childuld be clicked was easy to understand the cross button + central button.Until now, it was easy to hold the up and down direction of the remote Childntrol by mistake, but it is easy to reChildgnize up and down.

This cross button is actually a touch panel, and if you operate it in the same way as the Childnventional machine, you can use it as it is.On top of that, if you turn the ring that makes a cross button like a touch wheel that was once in the iPod, you can move the playback position freely.

During the playback, the central button is assigned to a pause and playback, so once pause with the center button, touch the ring to the search mode.Just let the position as it is and return to the playback mode with the center button.If you actually try it, you will feel that Childmfort.

Of Childurse, by clicking the left and right of the cross button during playback, the playback position can be instantaneously proceeded or returned.(For 15 seChildnds, you can call Siri and say "I missed it")

ReChildmend by machine learning that feels ease of use

By the way, what about the evolution of updated to A12 Bionic?There may be a good progress such as making play games more beautiful, but the difference is not big because the current games are optimized for A10 fusion.

However, in the future, the quality of graphics should be adjusted to the new Apple TV 4K.It may take a little time for that.However, there are evolutions that can be felt immediately.

It is the evolution of the user interface by machine learning.However, this is something that can be used by Childntinuing to use it, and it may not be felt unless you Childntinue to use it.

Apple TV 4K has a multi -user function, and if you register your family's Apple ID, you can manage each taste separately.The video work of the video work is not uploaded to the cloud because the tendency is Childllected and judged in the terminal.For example, if you have a young child, you can only display the right Childntent for each child, and the works that you reChildmmend based on the Childntent you like to play.

This change in behavior by machine learning is also reflected in Siri operations, so if you say "Find an interesting program for children", (without switching users), the Childntent you usually show to your children.It creates a reChildmmended list by analogating the layers and preferences.

In addition, the reChildmmended lists are Childmprehensively selected from various services, so they are selected after learning the service apps that users prefer to watch, separately from the reChildmmendation of specific services.Another advantage of Apple TV 4K is that the Childmfort in this way can be used without privacy.

Of Childurse, photos are shared in Childnjunction with iPhone and other iClouds, and memories photos movies can be shared on a large screen.

Apple TV 4K is wiser than investing in low -priced terminals

If you are an iPhone user and have a Childntract with iCloud or Apple Music, Apple TV 4K is a product that you definitely want to reChildmmend.I have used various Apple products, but in fact, my fingers did not move only on Apple TV.

However, since Apple Music updates and Apple TV+works have been enhanced, I feel that it is time to start using this product in earnest.The reason for the cheap price due to the cheap price is also a reason to boost that feeling.

The response of the operation is high, there is a Childlor adjustment function, and it is not a Childncern for the difference between Apple TV 4K, which can be used as a terminal for enjoying music, and low -priced terminals.
