Apple TV 4K Getting A19 Chip and Easier-to-Find Siri Remote

Apple’s new Apple TV 4K will be powered by a standard A19 chip, up from the A15 in the current 2022 model, reports Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman. Writing in his Power On newsletter, Gurman also said a refreshed Siri Remote will come with a speaker to make it easier to find between couch cushions.

Apple has also tested built-in microphones for the Apple TV 4K to let users query Siri without the remote or a paired HomePod – though that feature has only apparently been tested, and is not confirmed for the shipping device. The new Apple TV 4K arrives in stores on October 30 alongside the new HomePod mini. Apple is expected to unveil both at Tuesday’s « Welcome home » event.
