I just got a 43" Hisense 4K HDR TV for bedroom. It is a Smart TV and has Roku TV built-in. I find the menu and speed very impressive and most people would probably have no need for anything else. It has Netflix, Amazon Video, YouTube, and even Plex client. I even downloaded the Roku App for iOS and could cast pictures and videos to the TV. For these things, the experience of all these apps is pretty much the same as an AppleTV while saving a couple hundred dollars. Considering this TV was only $389 CAD... it is hard now to justify spending $229 CAD on an AppleTV which really doesn't offer much more.
The ONLY thing I like AppleTV in bedroom for is because MrMC is way better as a Plex client and using it I can also play all videos without transcoding. But the reality is I mostly watch my Telus Optik TV (separate box via HDMI), Netflix, Amazon, and YouTube on it and could survive without an AppleTV in bedroom altogether now.
In Family Room I have 4K AppleTV setup on my Samsung SmartTV... the Samsung TV is several years old and not quite as good as my new Roku TV therefore I prefer to use AppleTV exclusively for everything, and also same reason being MrMC on it.
I also use my AppleTV as a HomeKit hub. My Home Automation is not based on HomeKit - I just make it compatible using HomeBridge and could get along easily if I lost that feature.
