Purchasing used appletv

I have a 1080 tv. Just thinking of buying a used Apple TV 3rd gen for $50. Need it to stream my bell Fibe tv app and look at pictures/videos on iCloud. Would you recommend doing or not doing this?

thanks

The 3rd gen has long been discontinued, and hasn't received an update since 2016. It doesn't run apps, just preset content sent via server, and providers have started to drop support. You also wouldn't have access to things like iCloud Photo library, Apple Music, and airplay 2.


I would suggest to go for the 4th gen (now rebranded as Apple TV HD)
