  • Apple TV: At least five new features, including an A17 Pro chip or newer, an increased 8GB of RAM for Apple Intelligence, Siri AI support, an Apple-designed N1 chip with Wi-Fi 7 support, and an updated Siri Remote. The new Apple TV will apparently look similar to the existing model, so do not expect any major design changes.
  • HomePod mini: Newer chip with Siri AI support, improved sound quality, Apple's N1 chip with Wi-Fi 7 support, a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip, and potentially new color options like red. The new HomePod mini will apparently look similar to the existing model, so do not expect any major design changes.
  • Home Hub: An all-new smart home hub featuring Siri AI, a 6-inch to 7-inch square display, an A18 chip or newer for Apple Intelligence, FaceTime, and more. A new operating system will feature clock faces, widgets, and more. There will a tabletop version with a speaker base and a wall-mounted version.

The hub has me interested....depending on the price. I'd be interested in a new iPad mini if they'd just give us FaceID already. I want that over OLED.
 
Not that I have much faith in Gurman-sourced rumours given his pretty much constant trolling of us for about the last year with "any day now", "stocks running low" etc rumours about the next Apple TV and HomePod Mini (HPM) launches but I am none the less a bit disappointed not to see a hardware refresh of the full sized HopePod in that list. I hope that's just another case of Gurman getting something wrong.
 
Need a dog collar!!! The subscriptions alone for satellite tracking plus the good PR about locating lost pets would be amazing.
Just buy an air tag holder that fits on a dog collar. Apple isn't gonna create a whole new product/service when their competition is a $12 holder on amazon. Plus they'll sell more airtags.

I'll have to see how much money I have in the bank before I decide. 🤣
It’s ok to say next so long as they stick to what is coming in 2027. If they want to say next 12 months then fine that woks.

I holding out until 2027 for new Apple TV’s to get 3. Plus I want to see real world experience with the ultra over 6112 months and how well the hinge does for the crease. No way anyone is getting creaseless but if Apple can manage to keep the crease to what you get on day 1 to look the same on day 365 then they will be justified to wait 10 years for a hinge and far better than Samsung.

Constantly folding something is going to leave a mark, just how much and how annoying it is will be seen soon.

The design of the Apple TV really doesn't need to change, no idea what people want it to look like other than how it looks now. Yes, the remote could use more work.
Just upgraded internals. That's it. The current one is old but rocks. It's just hard to justify spending full price on something that out of date when there's been an upgrade coming.
 
Honestly, I don't need any of the items on that list. Put out a 27-inch iMac, and I am in for at least one. Damn the cost. Past that, I am good on Apple products for at least 3 years.

It will likely be a cold day in Cupertino before Apple releases a 27-inch iMac.
 
Apple TV. Please.

Last updated in 2021? I can’t even remember.
2022, which is still fine for most cases, but upgrading to an AV1-capable SoC is a no-brainer - especially since they drastically increased the price in June, it warrants a new model rather than paying more than a 4 yo kit.
