We’re still waiting for a new gaming-centric Apple TV by 2021

It’s been a long year, maybe more than necessary. Even so, it seems that for Apple it still hasn’t been enough, because even after hosting four different events throughout the year, it it seems that there are a lot of products left in the room. No more Macs, a possible second generation of HomePods, AirTags …

Among the list of things to do in Cupertino we have a new generation of Apple TV. Apple’s home device hasn’t received an update for some time now, and the competition is very close when it comes to performance. Do not say the price, with options like Chromecast with Google TV

, for 69 dollars.

The last released model of Apple TV was the Apple TV 4K, already presented in 2017. With it came both 4K UHD resolution, as well as other highly demanded capabilities such as Dolby Vision and Atmos compatibility, or HDR10. But its A10X chip is already starting to notice the passage of time, and Apple could use it next year to give it a boost.

More precisely, we are talking about a new Apple TV with a more current chip, like the A14, and a renewed remote control

. The latter would solve one of the big shortcomings of the current one, the Siri Remote, which is not as precise and comfortable as users would like. Of course, with this Apple TV, you might want to have other types of controls ready.

Next Generation Apple TV Reportedly Designed To Give Apple Arcade Developers A More Powerful Device to develop more ambitious projects

. It wouldn’t reach the level of a next-gen desktop console, far from it, but it could be a real mine for Apple Arcade subscribers.

In any case, there is still time to find out about Apple’s plans for this product. According to Bloomberg, everything still points to a launch in 2021, but with Apple, you never know.
