- rbanffy 2y agoThere are still a couple days left this week.
- jq-r 2y agoThere really isn't a chance they'll update the same product twice in a week.
- rbanffy 2y agoThey haven't officially updated it. They just discontinued the smaller model.
- jq-r 2y agoIt would make more sense to discontinue the smaller model along with some other updates to the line. Or in other words, Air won't receive any other updates this week unfortunately.
- rbanffy 2y agoIt also helps differentiating Airs and Pros. The Studio and the Pro are the odd ones this round.
- 39896880 2y agoThey said there would be three announcements this week and this is the third
- sroussey 2y agoThey did? The tweet that announced stuff from the head of marketing did not mention 3 days. That said, I believe you. Some press gets a hands-on on Wednesday (today) so unless they plan to pre-announce something (unlikely) or announce software only stuff, I think today is it.
- rbanffy 2y agoThat's disappointing. I was expecting a new Apple TV because mine needs replacement and I don't really feel inclined to get one that's due for an upgrade very soon. Also, Studio and Pro are hanging there.
- coder543 2y agoThe current-gen Apple TV is already overpowered for what it does, and extremely nice to use. I can think of very few changes I would like to see, and most of them are purely software.
- int_19h 2y agoI really wish it had some way to connect USB storage directly.
- coder543 2y agoMine has 128GB of onboard storage... but Apple still bans apps from downloading video, which annoys me. The streaming apps virtually all support downloading for offline viewing on iPhone, but the Apple TV just becomes a paperweight when the internet goes out, because I'm not allowed to use the 128GB of storage for anything. If they're not going to let you use the onboard storage, then it seems unlikely for them to let you use USB storage. So, first, I would like them to change their app policies regarding internal storage, which is one of the purely software improvements I would like to see.
- int_19h 2y agoI use a dedicated NAS as a Plex server + Plex app on Apple TV itself for local streaming, which generally works fine. Infuse app can also index and stream from local sources. But there are some cases like e.g. watching high-res high-FPS fractal zoom videos (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cgp2WNNKmQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cgp2WNNKmQ) where even brief random skipped frames from other things trying to use WiFi at the same time can be really noticeable and annoying.
- brewmarche 2y agoGiven that the Mini and iMac have received support for one more additional external display (at 60Hz 6K), I hope we’ll see the same on the MBA M4.
