Apple announced that it will release a new Apple TV 4K on November 13, priced at 49,800 yen, according to game.watch.impress.co.jp. The streaming device adds a new version of Siri AI along with three far-field microphones.
The new model is built around the A19 chip, which Apple says delivers up to 50% better CPU performance and up to twice the GPU performance compared with the previous generation. The chip also includes a dedicated AV1 decoder for more efficient, higher-quality streaming at lower bandwidth.
Apple also updated the Siri Remote. The new remote gains a Find feature with high-precision search and an option to play a sound from the remote.
Audio can be expanded by pairing the device with speakers: Apple says the new Apple TV 4K can build a surround sound environment when combined with four HomePod mini 2 or HomePod (2nd generation) speakers.
