The American magazineBloomberg, published by the eponymous billionaire and former mayor of New York, believes that Apple is currently developing the next version of its TV box dedicated to connecting large screens. Currently sold for 159 euros, this would then see the arrival of an additional version of its operating system:tvOS. This should logically benefit from the improvements of iOS 14 which will be revealed today during the Worldwide Developer Conference,to follow online here from 7 p.m. this evening.
In reality, this hypothesis is nothing new: it has already been formulated several times before, mainly by analysts or YouTubers. Furthermore, the last generation of the device dates from September 2017, it would not be surprising to see its manufacturer renew itself given its pace of product release which sees additional editions arriving almost every year. On the other hand, the source is this time much more reliable than the meager clues scattered until today on the subject of thisApple TV.
HomePod mini
In his article,Bloombergalso assumes that the HomePod welcomes a second member in its future family, which would be compatible with third-party applications such asSpotify. And this,even as the company faces increasing competition from Apple with its Podcasts app right now. Moreover, the calendar is similar here since this smart speaker was marketed in 2018, which is now more than two years ago.
This variation would still integrate Siri, but above all would be much morecompact. Will it be able to become portable like all the Bluetooth speakers which are now democratized in many homes? Not sure. WWDC being the best way to find out more at the moment, you will therefore have to follow its keynote to try to learn more if it is the third quarter which is targeted,otherwise, see you in October.
