Apple Launches New Apple TV 4K with Upgraded A19 Chip and Enhanced Siri Integration
Apple has launched an updated version of its $299 Apple TV 4K streaming device, featuring a new A19 chip to support AI capabilities. The latest model includes three far-field microphones for voice commands without the need for a remote or paired HomePod devices. It also supports four-speaker surround sound when used with newer HomePod models. The updated Siri integration allows users to ask detailed questions about content, such as show awards and filming locations, enhancing personalization and recommendations. While competitors like Google and Amazon have already integrated AI into their platforms for similar purposes, Apple's delayed update comes nearly four years after the original launch of the Apple TV 4K in 2022. The new remote includes a built-in speaker to help users locate it more easily using Siri or Find My. The device is available for pre-order and will ship on November 13.
