    you would rather playback your 6S 4k videos on a 326ppi lower res 750P screen though?

    Yes, or AirPlay. Why waste battery power refreshing pixels you can't even see?

    Glad Daniel is back to teach these fools a lesson.

    (Oh, and glad Daniel Dilger is back as well. ;))

    Hate when people say "an Android" as if it's generalized. There are thousands of devices, a lot might be crap. But the Xperia, Galaxy S, and Nexus are the flagships

    Well... that's what you get when "Android" can be put on pretty much any device available. You gotta take the good with the bad.

    There are over a billion active "Android" devices... but most of those devices are NOT the flagship Galaxy, Nexus or Xperia phones.

    I'd say most of "Android" is made up of dumpster phones from companies we've never heard of. But that's the way it is.

    I'm sorry, I'm obviously here as the devil's advocate.

    But can you get your collective heads out and see the reality?

    In the Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace and Skyfall, product placement - especially for Sony was heavy. With Sony Xperia in Skyfall to round it off.

    So, do you really think that Android has been dropped because it isn't the 'best'? Please try to come up with something a bit more creative next time around.

    This "leak" was most likely the "product placement" aka hype that Apple probably wanted all along..

    In any case, the rather bland and uninspiring iPhone carried by the millions is obviously way too pedestrian for James Bond. You don't go to a Bond movie to see him drive around in a Corolla all day. That is why he breaks out the Aston Martin once in a while.

    Yes, I did compare the iPhone with a Corolla. Its a great phone just like how the Corolla is a great car. They both simply "work"!

    Like someone else had mentioned, a Vertu would have been right at home instead.

    Had to get that off my chest. Peace.

    Naw, this is worse:

    I saw this with my father, technophobe, and he looked over and said "People don't do that, right?"

     

    "No, dear father we do not. So, please, join me to Best Buy, where we shall buy you a new TV to replace the one that my fist just shattered at a high rate of speed."

    Can I suggest that maybe Bond shouldn't use a Cell Phone at all, because it dates the film instantly. Go back and watch a few of the Pierce Brosnan films and laugh at the phones he was using.

    yeah let's AirPlay 4k video on your max-1080p Apple TV! LOL

     

    Even the 4th gen Apple TVs don't do 4K... Roku 4 does it for $129. 

     

    Don't tell me there is no 4k content.. Apple will just milk customers next year by saying it's a "new feature" for Apple TV 5

    LOL You don't once mention how your masturbatory those "tech specs" result in a better user experience. Are you really saying Apple had no option to increase the resolution of the display or cameras? Seriously?! :rolleyes::no:

    You may, fracking tech dweeb, but I won't listen.

    It's like your puking tech specs.

    Funny how despite that, you still can't take a fracking shot because its slow as crap.

    Yes, you fracking camera is so slow that its basically just good to shoot panoramas in broad daylight.

    So, go away .

    4k contents suck at this point. Unless, it's available to the mass. Including 4K in current ATV is a waste or only serve 0.0001% ATV owners. Until, there's 4K broadcasting...and it's at least 3 years away, there's nothing to do with 4K TV.

    By the way, to be correct, there's no 4K TV set at this point as far as I've known because none of them has 1.9:1 ratio to reach 4096 lines. 16:9 only contains 3840 x 2160 and 3840 is not 4K. It's ultra HD, not 4K.

    Waste.

    A worse camera than the iPhone.

     

    Up to 200 GB microSD™ card


     

    That’d be fun to lose, wouldn’t it?

    Shut up and go away.

    As usual, most of your "data" is completely made up. You have a very narrow view of the world and obviously don't have a clue what's going on in technology outside of your own zip code.

    For starters, 40% of all TV's sold this holiday season will be 4K TV's. I don't know what your cable provider is doing with 4K - but mine is rolling it out starting in January and is providing more than enough content to make it worth subscribing to me and several of my friends. Only 0.0001% of Apple TV owners will benefit from 4K? As if! Anyone with an iPhone 6s can produce their own 4K videos and could therefore benefit from an Apple TV that is able to display their homegrown content. The 4K content is coming fast and furious. If Apple planned to wait a year before rolling out 4K support on Apple TV - a lot of people would go Roku just for the 4K support. Fortunately, I don't think that's the plan. I think we'll see 4K support enabled on the existing Apple TV in less than 3 months.

    You're allowed to have an opinion (no matter how wrong it may be) but please make sure you phrase it as an opinion. It makes you look like an idiot when you post "facts" which are easily proven to be wrong.

    Here's the link for my cable companies 4K support and gigabit internet service - both coming in January 2016.

    Two resolutions are defined as UHDTV:

     

    4K UHDTV (2160p) is 3840 pixels wide by 2160 pixels tall

    8K UHDTV (4320p) is 7680 pixels wide by 4320 pixels tall

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-definition_television#Resolution

     

    4096 by 2304 is a more unusual TV resolution for 16:9:

    4,096 x 2,160 1.9:1 ratio is a format most associated with Digital Cinema:
