Forbes reports that the Apple and Sling TV deal will allow Apple TV users to enjoy the full Sling TV service of streamed TV channels.

It is a $60 price cut from the usual retail price of $149. The Apple and Sling TV deal will cost you $20 a month. This is particularly useful for those who are interested in Sling TV.
The site also stated that the $20 a month package will let you sign up or avail a discounted Apple TV box which includes "ESPN , ESPN 2, AMC, TNT, CNN, History, Food Network, the Disney Channel, the Cartoon Network, ABC Family, TBS, Lifetime, A&E, and H2 among others."
"Other Sling TV channel packs can be added on Apple TV just as they can with other Sling TV platforms like Roku’s TV boxes by paying an extra $5 for each pack you want," it continued.

In the Apple TV box you are going to get the Apple TV itself and a remote control for the Apple TV. You're also going to get the cable to connect the Apple TV to the wall and then some documentations, Apple stickers, along with a USB to charge the controller.
Compared to the third generation Apple TV, the ports have slightly changed. The look and feel of the hardware is pretty much same.
Fourth generation Apple TV has very glossy sides with a matte finish on the top, and the Apple TV logo front and center.
Apple has revamped the Apple TV remote this time with a drastically different design and a new set of features.
Now with the Apple and Sling TV deal, the $60 price drop of the fourth generation Apple TV is definitely a steal.
