Hello!
I’m looking for a new streaming device (I have been waisting away using an xfinity box for way too long).
With the 2nd gen being so close in price I feel like the 3rd gen is the way to go. And it seems like the 128gb is the best option with the addition of the ethernet connection + it only being 20 more dollars at the end of the day for twice the storage.
It seems like there aren’t too many screaming deals coming up at stores other then for the older HD models (I know I missed out on the Walmart/costco/etc the last few months with the 100 offers for the new/older 4k 😔✊) But on apples site it’s going for 130 referbished which isint so bad and obviously the best spot to get it used. Also the 50$ gift card option for buying it new on Black Friday.
which of those options would you say would be my best bet - Im not sure when I’ll be purchasing another apple product (in relation to the gift card) but I have a Mac for my audio/video production work and am thinking of switching to the iPhone with the 15 coming out (USB C finally 🥲). So I’m well on my way to the cult of apple ecosystem immersion lmao.
Or has anyone heard of a better deal coming along or currently running? Should I just wait it out a little longer? Etc.
Appreciate the help everyone!
I’ve been using Apple TVs for years now. I just moved and upgraded my home theater as a result. The first purchase I made was the Apple TV 4K 128GB.
I had the same logic as you: it’s $20 more, so why not. I checked for price drops for over a month and nothing, so I just got it.
If the price is going to drop at all, it’ll be this week with Black Friday. I’ve never purchased refurbs from Apple, so I don’t have an opinion on that.
I can tell you that you made the right decision in choosing the Apple TV. You’ll see what I mean when you get it. You won’t be able to use another “smart” TV device again.
