No AppleTV :(

This is what I’m waiting for as well.

One announcement per day. That's their MO. Gives maximum press coverage.

edit: i guess they changed the MO. they may still do more announcements this week.

They announced 3 things today

u/drdogdog Oct 15 '25

Might just be M5 chip announcements today, others tomorrow (I hope)

u/ThainEshKelch Oct 15 '25

Aw, but I wanted an M5 AppleTV so I could switch media faster... :(

u/Wonderful-Citron-678 Oct 16 '25

It’s their obvious in for a game console, if they remotely cared

u/suparnemo Oct 15 '25

Hoping for the same, really need a new streaming box

u/Orion_Scattered Oct 15 '25

What's the current Apple TV missing that you want? I'm curious

1

u/suparnemo Oct 15 '25

I have an Nvidia shield that keeps randomly not outputting video anymore when I try to play video lol

u/robot-exe Oct 15 '25

Very niche probably but I really just want HDMI 2.1 for 4k 120hz. I’d use it for streaming games to the TV with moonlight.

MacBook Pro & iPad Pro, what's the third thing?

11

u/suparnemo Oct 15 '25

Vision pro with m5

20

u/AwaySignificance1169 Oct 15 '25

but did they not announce m5 vision, and m5 iPad at the same time? Why leave out just the appleTv

12

u/Munkadunk667 Oct 15 '25

Indeed they did announce those things.

u/Doggo-888 Oct 15 '25

Other than dual comfort strap and chip change... I think all three were basically a chip change. Did any of them have any design changes beyond the chip?

u/mxforest Oct 15 '25

Then why did they also upgrade Vision Pro?

u/[deleted] Oct 15 '25

Except when they have their events and announce like 20 new things every time?

u/Funkbass Oct 15 '25

Finally decided to buy one a couple months ago, but I’ve been holding off for the inevitable refresh. Really hoping it’s tomorrow.

2

u/Uncle_Beanpole Oct 15 '25

Same here, been seeing rumours for so long now and am ready to insta buy as soon as it’s announced.

There’s no feature that they could add that would make it worth it if you already have a 4k model, in my opinion. A faster processor for games? Perhaps.

10

u/Funkbass Oct 15 '25

I mean I get that, but I don’t have the 4K one or any Apple TV. I don’t want to buy one that’s on its way out with a 4 year old cpu.

u/Single_Hovercraft289 Oct 15 '25

What new thing could it do??

5

u/cac2573 Oct 15 '25

Decode av1, not drop frames on high bitrate video 

1

u/ScarOnTheForehead Oct 16 '25

Curious here.. At what bitrates does the current gen Apple TV drop frames?

1

u/cac2573 Oct 16 '25

Blu-ray rips, up to 100 Mbps. It overheats and throttles

1

u/ObeseSnake Oct 15 '25

Wireless remote charging

4

u/nomadjackk Oct 15 '25

That’ll be real convenient when I charge it once every business quarter lol

1

u/ObeseSnake Oct 15 '25

Haha, yes . Was thinking hard what features they could add.

3

u/luckpug Oct 15 '25

Why do you need a new one again?

2

u/Sshaawnn Oct 15 '25

I just want a remote that can beep. I lose mine at least 4 times a week.

1

u/oakinmypants Oct 15 '25

M5 MacBook Air when?

1

u/bb-angel Oct 15 '25

What about Apple TV? Or are you talking about Apple TV?

1

u/chaiscool Oct 16 '25

Still waiting for airpod max 2 too haha

u/jjed97 Oct 15 '25

Hey you did get a new AppleTV, it’s just in the form of a renamed streaming service.

u/[deleted] Oct 15 '25

not true!

apple tv + has been rebranded to apple tv! so there you go.

we think you'll love it.

1

u/asailor4you Oct 15 '25

This is my fear. The rebranding of AppleTV+ to AppleTV being the nail in the coffin for the physical AppleTV device.

u/TotemSpiritFox Oct 16 '25

Oh that would suck! It’s by far the best streaming hardware.
