7 Things to Know About the New Apple TV Release

Earlier today, Apple finally put its new Apple TV 4 on sale. With that in mind, we want to take a look at a few of the most important things pre-orderers, and buyers, need to know about the new Apple TV release date.

On September 9th, Apple confirmed several new and exciting products. On stage Tim Cook and Co. introduced us to the iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPad mini 4, 12-inch iPad Pro, and a fourth-generation Apple TV.

The new Apple TV succeeds the Apple TV 3, a device that, believe it or not, arrived all the way back in 2012. An Apple TV 3 Rev A arrived in early 2013.

As expected the new Apple TV comes with a number of changes including a brand new control, enhanced gaming, built-in Siri, and apps that go beyond the stock software that Apple includes with the device’s software.

Apple confirmed a new Apple TV release for late October though it didn’t confirm a specific date until last week. Tim Cook announced that the company would deliver an Apple TV 4 on Monday, October 26th. Today is October 26th and the new Apple TV is now on sale.

The new Apple TV 4 has arrived on the Apple Store in two flavors. A 32GB model that’ll cost you $150 and a larger 64GB model that is a little more expensive ($200).

Now that the device is available online, we want to take a look at some things buyers should keep in mind as we move away from today’s online release date.
