The upcoming Apple TV 4K is expected to receive internal upgrades, even though its design is likely to remain the same, according to MacRumors. The current third-generation Apple TV 4K, which was released four years ago, uses an A15 Bionic chip and 4 gigabytes of RAM. This update would bring the device up to date with newer technologies and improve its performance for modern applications. Rumors suggest that the new model could feature a more powerful A17 Pro chip or even a newer version, though this has not been officially confirmed. The RAM is expected to increase from 4 to 8 gigabytes, which would allow the Apple TV to support Apple Intelligence, the company’s artificial intelligence (AI) tools, and an enhanced version of Siri, Apple’s voice assistant. Additionally, the new model is said to include a new Apple N1 network chip, which would provide support for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6—upgrades from the current Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0. Apple raised the price of the Apple TV 4K in June 2026, with the current model available for 229 euros and a version with 128 GB storage and an Ethernet port priced at 299 euros. It is still unclear whether the fourth-generation model will keep these prices or increase further. The exact specifications, such as the type of chip used, potential changes to the Siri remote control, and the release date, remain uncertain. October is a common month for Apple to launch new products, and potential buyers may want to wait a few weeks before deciding whether to purchase the current model or wait for the newer version. This could be especially relevant for those interested in features like Apple Intelligence, which may only be available on the updated hardware.
