Apple introduced at the last WWDC as it was spoken here, the new Apple TV, the new service that says come to revolutionize the current television service. This new device, began arriving today to whom the house purchased the equipment through the online store and is available for purchase in physical stores from next Monday.
But what is the AppleTV and what it does? Let's get to know this great new product from Apple!
Finally the wait is over, the AppleTV is back after 3 long years waiting for an update (last AppleTv3 version), finally comes the new version of this product, despite the exterior design is quite similar to its predecessor, do not let spinning by appearances to AppleTV arrived full of news and came to conquer the market. Let's learn more about the Apple TV 4.
He was born the new operating system, tvOS
The AppleTV we knew was limited, was about access to a little outdated and non captivated because they were not very intuitive. I had many applications, so it could not be called smart TV, very few contents and the few that existed had to be purchased or rented from iTunes. This is past!
With this new update, the AppleTV features a new operating system, called tvOS.
The tvOS includes a new face, a graphical interface completely redesigned in the style of iOS 9, completely integrated into the Apple Cloud ecosystems. We can shop for movies, music and photos, are all automatically updated, similar to what already happens today between iPhone and iPad.
Actually also was born a new application store, it's a place for developers can create, give wings to your imagination and lead to many consumer idea that can be extraordinarily useful.
As a normal store that Apple is already imagining that we can enjoy a broad suite of new applications to the user's availability. You can buy or download for free from specific applications for streaming content such as Netflix (just arrived in Portugal), and YouTube or Vimeo, even games such as classic Rayman, Crossy Road, 2048 or Asphat 8: Airborn.
Siri on AppleTV
This is a feature that we are sure will make great success, because you can simplify the interaction between you and the TV, but it's unfortunate that Apple has not yet released the Portuguese Language Portugal as a personal assistant Siri, to because with this gap prevents the existence of even the AppleTV which leaves half of unviable resource and grade without usefulness.
Besides these 'bonus' all the tvOS also includes integration with Siri, which unfortunately is not available in Portugal.
AppleTV Remote
Much of the interaction of magic through the command. This command was completely reinvented now having a touch area (for swipe gestures) while clickable, for example a gyroscope to play, imitating a little command of the Wii console. The command also has a play / pause button; Microphone to be used in the research; Menu; Home; And for me the best part, the volume buttons, not for what they do themselves, but by the interaction, the command interacts with the television as if it were the original command the same!(Tested with Samsung, LG and Panasonic).
With use of the new command navigation throughout the system, has become much simpler, more intuitive, greatly improving the classical navigation through several arrows (buttons). It should also note that the use of the microphone for use with Siri is an asset, thus making it simpler to use the same.

Conclusion
