According to Bloomberg News’ “Power On” newsletter from Mark Gurman, Apple is again “evaluating” the idea of releasing an Apple-branded TV set.
Michael Burkhardt for 9to5Mac:
Gurman says that this would happen after Apple releases their upcoming smart display products, so it’s likely a couple years out. Apple is expected to release a lower end smart display, which a lot of people are referring to as “HomePad”, early next year.
Afterwards, we’re anticipating some kind of higher end product with a larger display and a robotic arm.
However, Gurman says that “if the first device fails”, referring to the smart displays, Apple “may have to rethink its smart home ambitions once again” – meaning theres decent odds that this Apple-branded TV set rumor may never come to fruition.
