Save Your Money! Siri AI Is Coming to Some Older Apple TVs and HomePods
Apple is bringing Siri AI features to older Apple TV 4K models via a future software update, allowing users to access new capabilities without purchasing the latest hardware. The company is also releasing a new fourth-generation Siri Remote with precision finding features.
Why it matters
This update provides consumers with a cost-effective way to access new AI features, potentially impacting hardware sales for Apple's latest smart home devices.
The headline feature of Apple’s new smart home devices, including the HomeView, will also be available on older Apple TV models.
The top justification for buying Apple’s new HomeView , fourth-generation Apple TV 4K and HomePod Mini 2 is that these devices all have the processing power to handle Siri AI , the main addition to Apple Intelligence across Apple’s line of products.
But before you place your preorder (which is open now), take a look around your home – if you already own an older Apple TV 4K , you could save yourself quite a bit of RAMaggedon money by waiting, because Siri AI is also coming to some of the devices Apple replacing.
