Great Accessories for the Apple TV 4K

Last updated:

The Apple TV 4K takes content to the next level with crystal clear and UHD video. If you can’t get enough of the set-top streaming device, here are some great Apple TV accessories to take improve your viewing experience.

Protect Your Expensive Siri Remote

While the Siri Remote is a big step up from previous versions included with the Apple TV, there are some definite downsides. It’s small, easy to lose, and costs $59 to replace. But the Elago Intelli Case has more than a few tricks up its sleeve. Made from durable silicone, it can protect the remote from drops and other hazards. It also includes a lanyard to help keep the remote in-hand during those intense gaming sessions. My favorite feature is the powerful magnets that allows users to attach the remote to any metal surface, including many TVs.
