    Apple really couldn’t include a USB-C to USB-C in the 4K box? There was plenty of room left in the box just saying. I love Apple, but they really pulled a fast one this time

    I got the newest remote third generation I believe I have a USB type C cable it doesn’t fit right and cable no fit in either. This is annoying and I don’t know what the hell to do. These remotes are not cheap.

    How do i know if it is charging because i bought mine today and tried my Samsung type C and i think it didn't work cause i didn't see any light on the remote and i still couldn't turn on my apple tv cause my remote doesn't have any battery left (i think). Hopefully my problem is from my cable that i am using. I was so excited for trying it now i got angry and will have to wait for tomorrow to go and buy a lightning cable

    Apple charges so much & now they include nothing with their items. The Apple TV has no cord for the remote, the watch no longer comes with a charging cord, the phone has no cord either & also doesn’t come with earbuds. They say it’s to “help the environment” they say you probably already have these things, but my thought was they should give free vouchers then for the people who do not already have these things or for people who need new cords or earbuds. The phones are over $1,000. then you have to purchase everything you need a la cart, it’s ridiculous!!

    Thanks for the video to clarify the usb-c cable. After 30 years of using Apple products, the fact that the Apple TV and remote do not ship with a USB-C cable is pretty much the limit for me when it comes to their years of forcing buyers into their cable purchasing game. It just reveals Apple’s utter contempt for its customers.
