Apple set-top box detailed disassemble basic tutorial, performance monster equipped with A10X processor

In the fall of September, Apple released a new lineup of products, but among them, the Apple TV 4K didn’t stand out much. After all, it's just a set-top box, and 4K HDR support isn't exactly groundbreaking anymore. Plus, it’s not even available in some regions, which makes it less appealing. However, despite its unimpressive exterior, the Apple TV 4K is actually one of the most powerful streaming devices on the market in terms of hardware. Many users are curious about what’s inside this sleek box, so we’ve put together a detailed disassembly guide based on iFixit’s findings. The dismantling process starts with removing the bottom cover, revealing a large cooling fan—bigger than previous models. This suggests that the 4K HDR playback generates more heat, and Apple has added EMI shielding to prevent signal interference. The fan design even reminds some people of a disc weapon from the movie *Tron*. Underneath the fan lies the motherboard, which houses the A10X processor—a chip also found in the 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro. It features a 6-core architecture built on a 10nm process. While the clock speed might not be higher than before, the performance is noticeably smoother for 4K content. The board also includes a Broadcom BCM55762 chip that supports Thunderbolt, Gigabit Ethernet, and USB 3.0, along with 3GB of LPDDR4 memory (2GB + 1GB) from SK Hynix and 32GB of Toshiba flash storage. On the other side, there’s a DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 converter, as well as a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module. The power supply unit delivers 12V at 1.083A, slightly more than the previous model, though the overall design remains similar. The AC input is connected via wires rather than direct soldering, making repairs easier. iFixit gave the Apple TV 4K a repairability score of 8 out of 10. It’s easy to take apart using plastic clips, and many components are modular. However, the main components are still soldered onto the logic board, which could complicate repairs if something goes wrong with the interface.
