This just gave me a terrible thought. Maybe they’re taking the remote away entirely and relying on gesturing via the camera (like VisionPro? UGH!)

And? You presented with ads you can relate to. It's the weak who buy stuff that pushed on them even when they don't need it. They can show me countless ads and still won't buy the **** if I don't need it.
There no sense of ownership with constant ad pushes. It feels like I’m renting someone else’s TV. I don’t like ads infesting my devices at the best of times but I really, really don’t want them on my TV set menu.
AAA games’ processor and storage requirements and the similarities in footprint along with Apple’s habit of gouging customers for storage upgrades, a Mac mini would likely be a better option.
You underestimate the power of a toddler.
Ours went missing once - we tore the house apart for a week. Our 2 year old son at the time had tossed it in his huge box of Lego and it was buried.
Who says I don't game?
I mentioned my Xbox even in that post. I have a series X. And a gaming pc. I play video games plenty. What I don't do or what is to play video games on my Apple streaming device.
120hz does not benefit home theatre in the least. It's not a bad take it's an accurate take. The UHD standard goes nowhere near 120hz. It stops at 60. Apple TV already handles Dolby vision, any hdr format, atmos etc. it just needs as I said to support bitstream audio.
GeForce now is a really cool service that flies under the radar to say the least. But I don't think it's a focus for a streaming box. Why would it be.
Area Man Constantly Mentioning He Doesn't Own A Television
CHAPEL HILL, NC–Area resident Jonathan Green does not own a television, a fact he repeatedly points out to friends, family, and coworkers–as well as to his mailman, neighborhood convenience-store clerks, and the man who cleans the hallways in his apartment building.

Yeah. People who stare at the TV/Tablet/Smartphone from morning till night, drooling, laugh collectively at the guy who doesn’t own a TV. The guy who’s actually doing something useful instead of consuming content created purely for making money rather than for art.
Meanwhile, their laughter echoes in the background like canned sitcom laughter, masking the fact that they’re quietly wasting the only life they have, hour by hour, day by day.

That's a fast reply from a person who is clearly busy living a life away from screens.
Dude you're on a macrumors forum. You're not fooling anyone.
You could use masking tape, duct tape, a happy face sticker… the possibilities are endless. 😂 /s

Changing to Apple chips and newer generation CPU reduces build cost. Tim Apple likes those kind of presentations at the conference call.
Surprised no one has pointed to several back-of-tv mounts available - hang it on the back of the TV and you'll never see the light again. The remote is bluetooth-based so no need for "line of sight" for it to work. I use the TotalMount for three of my Apple TVs - it hangs from the vents on back, or you could use the included double-sided tape. Works great!
I’ll upgrade all mine if it does not have that camera lens and the remote beeps and/or has a flashing light for FindMy. The visual iPhone proximity indicator is a step in the right direction but it doesn’t tell me exactly where it is. I often already know it’s in the sofa, just not sure which crack and proximity doesn’t work great for that
I say this because there are so many people adopting cloud gaming instead of local gaming. Currently Apple on all devices is avoiding these services like the plague. For 90% of the population the current 4K Apple TV is overkill, but I personally mix console / PC and Cloud Gaming depending on my location and devices available. Having my apple TV's have the full experience would be a really nice bonus for me and a lot of others and would be a reason to upgrade. Unless the new version is heads and tails over the current I see no real reason to upgrade.
Oops meant to say SSD. It’s WAY smaller than gaming devices like the PlayStation 5 so I’m sure people would appreciate a larger option.
If the new Apple TV includes a camera, as the render suggests, it will constantly be looking at the ceiling and the back of my LG TV.
I hope that if this new Apple TV materializes, it will support pass-through audio and DTS. An audio update would make me buy one on the first day it’s available!

The sad thing is that audio support could be implemented on all Apple TV's dating back to the 1080p one. It's just a software chabge
Sadly you and I both know they are the type to hide that behind a new unit. Making you buy another one.
