I'm setting up a TV in my room with a smart TV and soundbar for an awesome experience. I'm considering the Apple TV 4K and wondering what it actually offers. Does it provide a better user interface than the Google TV that's already in my smart TV? I'm also curious if the Apple TV 4K can be used with a monitor since I move between cities for work. I've read that as long as the monitor has an HDMI port and sound output, I'm good to go, but I want to make sure it's worth getting if I'll use it for both my TV and monitor setups. Am I correct in thinking that the Apple TV 4K simply acts as a better operating system for devices that lack one, like my monitor? If I connect both the TV and the monitor to the Apple TV 4K, will they perform equally, just with different resolutions? Please guide me before I decide to buy it.

Whether it's worth it really depends on your needs. I've got Apple TV in my home and it significantly outperforms others in speed; the CPU is faster than most streaming devices, which means a smoother user experience. Plus, Apple really cares about privacy, unlike many other devices that sell your data. You'll definitely appreciate an ad-free experience.
Thanks for sharing! I'm sold on the speed and no ads, but can you clarify if it works well with monitors too? Also, can I connect a Bluetooth speaker directly to the Apple TV 4K instead of relying on the monitor?
