The Apple TV 4K is powered by the brand’s A12 Bionic processor that is found in the iPhone XS, XS Max and XR. It consists of four power-efficient CPU cores and a quad-core GPU. This allows the device to support 4K HDR video playback in 60fps.

The circular pad is also touch-sensitive that lets the user swipe on it to navigate the UI. The remote also features a Siri button on the right side.
