The new Apple TV 4K is expected to be released in March or April 2026, aligning with a broader Apple Home product launch. This timeline follows the delay from earlier expectations of a late 2025 release, as Apple reportedly postponed the hardware refresh to ensure it can fully support the advanced AI and software features in tvOS 26.1. The upcoming model is anticipated to feature the A17 Pro chip, 8GB of RAM, and a dedicated N1 chip for Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread connectivity, marking a significant upgrade over the current 2022 model.

Spring release timeframe
Thinking of buying an Apple TV 4K 3 with money I just got but if there's a new one releasing in September I want to wait.
I keep hearing all these new rumors about the new Apple TV dropping and unsure how realistic that is. Should I just go ahead and buy the 4K Apple TV or do you think it’s worth waiting?
