Apple to Upgrade Apple TV: New Apple TV Is Coming This Summer

Apple might finally be ready to update the Apple TV. For years, the Apple TV was described as a hobby, but now this device has become much more interesting for Apple fans. 

The Apple TV is a set-top box that connects to a TV and allows Netflix streaming. Apple TV users will be able to buy movies from iTunes and enhance their TV experience, easily. 

Well, now it has been rumored that the famous company will finally unveil the next-generation Apple TV. 

This will happen at the company's annual developers' conference in June, according to the rumors. Rumors also say that it will not be just a minor update. 

This means that Apple might present a significant evolution from the previous generation device it launched on the market. And it will be no shock in that, as Apple is actually expected to do so, since it unveiled its latest generation device about three years ago.

So, the new Apple TV is said to come with a faster processor, increased storage, support for Siri and many other new features. One of these rumored features is actually linked to increased control over other home products. 

So, reports indicate that with this update, Apple plans on moving to a type of hub of controlling smart home products, including power outlets and even door locks. 

As imagined, at this point Apple revealed nothing about these rumors. There is no information on the cost of the new device, either. However, the fact that Apple might be releasing something new on this segment of its lineup might be true. 

Last week, Tim Cook announced that the price of the current Apple TV will drop from $99 to $69. This move is believed to precede the release of a brand new device, as Apple has actually tried to eliminate stocks of a previous release, before a new announcement. 

Maybe, this is also the case now. In an investors meeting back in January, Tim Cook claimed that the company has sold no less than 25 million Apple TVs. 

This week it has also been revealed that Apple plans to launch its own Internet TV service, which is actually said to feature no less than 25 channels. 

Well, it is yet to see if the rumors will be confirmed, but the truth is that Apple is expected to make such releases this year.
