Rumours have it that there’s a new Apple TV 4K coming in the first half of next year. Would it be worth waiting for it or buying now?

The question would be, what else can they add?

Purely speculation on my part, but there’s three things I could see reasonably get added in a new version:

• Better processor (which will only matter for gaming, really)

• Built in Microphone for Siri smart home controls

• Tools for Vision Pro compatibility (such as the pop-up view like what it will do with the Mac)

• An entirely new, smaller/cheaper version built just for streaming

Do any of these features, or any others you imagine, make it worth waiting? And of course, none of these are guaranteed, though the first is probable, and there are rumors of the last one.

It’s a tough decision, but if you’re only going to use it for streaming, I’m not sure it’s worth waiting unless you’re sure the cheap one will come out.

Honestly a better processor is what’s making me think about waiting; hence my question

You know they could keep the Same processor and keep new processor for the expensive Pro model.. I am also on the fence for 128gb. Holding as of now as I missed the $99 offer at Costco

The $99 Costco deal ends on the 27th. (So tomorrow) go get one.

Costco had the 128GB version for $99 in September.
