Review: Apple TV (2015)

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Apple TV (2015) finally sees Apple’s set top box transcend its iTunes roots into larger and more expansive apps, entertainment, gaming and much more.

The latest version of the Apple TV is impeccably designed and smartly positioned as Apple’s play for the living room and possibly the central nervous system for HomeKit enabled smart devices.

Apple TV has actually placed itself in the line of fire in one of the most competitive segments in consumer electronics and entertainment. There's already heated competition with established players like Roku, Amazon (Fire) and Google with its insanely popular (and cheap) Chromecast. Apple TV (2015) is also competing against the previous incarnation, which is also cheaper, but far less powerful or versatile.

Video: Hands on with the Microsoft Surface Book

At first glance, the Microsoft Surface Book looks and feels like a full featured 13-inch notebook. It feels heftier than most ultrabooks because it is mainly a tablet.
The top section which holds the multi-touch display and all the processors and ports connects to a keyboard which also houses a discreet GPU (in some models). This device weighs 3.34 lbs and less when it is in clipboard mode (just the tablet). 
What is impressive is the precise build quality and level of materials used. The 13.5-inch PixelSense touchscreen display (3000 x 2000) resolution is vibrant and easy on the eyes and keyboard lovers will fall hard for the accessory keyboard which looks and feels great. What's not so great, is the $1,949.00 starting price!

HP's Elite x2 tablet is gunning for the enterprise throne
