OK, Thread uses IEEE 802.15.4 (just like ZigBeww), most of its channels operate within 2.4GHz spectrum. HomePod mini has had Thread support since 2021, and looking at iFixit teardown, it uses SKY66404-11 for ZigBee/Thread/Bluetooth: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/HomePod+Mini+IC+Identification/141641#s283808~~ https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/HomePod+Mini+IC+Identification/... Meanwhile I checked the Apple TV 4k 2021 model teardown and goes what, it also has a ZigBee/Thread/Bluetooth chip: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Apple+TV+4K+2021+Teardown/142845#s288392 https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Apple+TV+4K+2021+Teardown/14... https://www.nordicsemi.com/products/nrf52833 https://www.nordicsemi.com/products/nrf52833 This is a complete b/s and as an owner of 2021, I am pissed. I expect this to be picked up by the Apple-centric media. EDIT: Well, LOL at myself: 2021 4k already has Thread support: https://support.apple.com/kb/SP845?locale=en_US https://support.apple.com/kb/SP845?locale=en_US So they didn't add anything specific to 2022 model in that regard.
