By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Apple has released a new Apple TV 4K model for 2026, featuring a significant performance upgrade with the A19 chip, which is up to 50% faster than the A15 Bionic in the 2022 model. This new device also includes enhanced Siri capabilities with built-in microphones for voice commands, support for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.1, and the ability to connect four HomePods for surround sound. Despite the $100 price increase to $299, many of these advancements, including Siri AI and the new remote with Precision Finding, will also be available to owners of older Apple TV 4K models through software updates.
