A new Apple TV 4K (4th generation) may be on the horizon according to recent developments. MacRumors reported the discovery of evidence for such a device last week.

While this could simply be a precautionary update, it has fueled speculation that Apple plans to release a new Apple TV 4K soon, potentially in October. The upcoming model is expected to feature a more powerful A19 or A19 Pro chip, increased RAM ranging from 8GB to 12GB, integration with Apple Intelligence and Siri AI, an N1 chip with Wi-Fi 7 support, and a redesigned Siri Remote.

The current Apple TV, introduced in October 2022, runs on an A15 Bionic chip and has 4GB of RAM. It has recently seen a price increase due to rising memory chip costs.
