Apple TV 4K 3rd Gen / Remote Bluetooth Issue still exist @tvOS 16.3

Bought a Apple TV 4K 2 Month ago.

Had Remote Issues - Apple replaced the Remote and the TV. I thought it’s just a problem that I have. Maybe a faulty Apple TV.

I went through all the troubleshooting scenarios. No long-time solution. I have to restart the Apple TV 2-3 Times a week.

It still lose connection all the time @tvOS 16.2. Then I updated to 16.3 - I hoped that the Software is the problem.

@Apple -tvOS 16.3 does not solve the Problem :(

Are there any plans on fixing that bug?

Not likely since Apple has not acknowledged a known problem.

So do you think every owner of the Apple TV 4K 2 has this bug? I don’t. Could it possibly be electrical interference in the area of your setup that is causing the issue? Some other piece of equipment that is putting out errant radio frequencies at times?

I'm having the same problem too. Have been since I bought the latest Apple TV 4K. Never had a problem with any other model, and I've used a lot of them.

Have done all the software updates and keep hoping it's resolved, but it's still not.

It's making the Apple TV that I purchased as a Christmas present practically unusable still 3 months later.
