A new rumor suggests that this year we will see a new update of the Apple TV. It has to be something groundbreaking, that contributes something new, if not, I think it is a device that currently does not make much sense. I use one for the kitchen television, as it is a bit old and its Smart TV features are outdated. Thanks to him, I can see the digital platforms that I have contracted.
But if your television is fairly new, and it has a Smart TV system compatible with all current video platforms, the truth is that by connecting an Apple TV you don't earn much. Being able to access your iPhone photo gallery, and play a game from the Apple Store. Little more. So I hope that this new renovation brings some more plus. ¿Apple Arcade +, maybe?
A new rumor about a new Apple TV 6 has appeared this week by The Verifier seen in AppleTrack. It explains that a new generation of Apple TV will launch after the summer of this year.
It will already be the sixth generation of Apple TV. The report explains that it will mount a new chip more powerful than the A12, with two available storage sizes of 64 and 128 GB expandable and more than 3 GB of RAM. It will also include a new Siri Remote and as an option it will have a Remote control to play.
New hardware and a new tvOS 15
But perhaps the highlight is not the logical hardware upgrade, but will incorporate a powerful TvOS 15 with a new interface, mode for minors, airtime function, and a new video game platform.
It would be an Apple Arcade + with games triple-A to take advantage of the potential of the device, which when connected to a television, makes it a true video console, to compete directly with the NexGen consoles from Sony and Microsoft.
I do not see it viable. We all know that current video consoles are sold at cost price, since the real business of Sony y Microsoft It comes after. So if Apple intends to launch a device that in performance is at the level of the PS5 and the new Xbox, it will sell it for 1.000 Euros.
And if you launch a product focused on lower-end video games, it will be an "I want and I can't" that will obviously go unnoticed by the demanding gammer community. We will see then.
