As Apple schedule to hold a press event on September 9, now company’s much rumoured TV’s specs leaked ahead of the launch.
The next-generation Apple TV would make its debut alongside company’s flagship device iPhone 6s.
The usually reliable 9to5Mac has got wind of the specs of the incoming home entertainment box: prepare yourself for a mix of the old (in terms of design and ports) and the new (4K streaming and a revamped remote control).
Apple is weighing up 8GB and 16GB options. The entry level price is expected to be $149 (roughly £95 or AUS$210), which is quite a step up from the $69 box on sale today.
A version of iOS 9 is going to be at the heart of the new Apple TV, 9to5Mac says, with the A8 chip that powers the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus keeping the revamped software interface running smoothly.
Wii-like motion detection capabilities would feature the remote.
More power, a better remote, Siri-powered universal search, an App Store to call its own and maybe even some kind of live television streaming… it looks like the Apple TV might steal the show in San Francisco next week.
