In addition to the ‘AirPods X generation’, 9to5Mac received images showing that there are also dummy entries for ‘Apple TV Gen X’ and ‘Apple Watch Series X’ bands. There’s also listings for ‘Apple iPod Touch X Generation’.
I’m particularly interested in the potential Apple TV revision and new Apple Watch bands. I’ll hopefully be in the market for an Apple TV within the next few months, and the current model hasn’t been updated since 2017. I’m not sure what changes this new device would have in store, but the 4K and HDR features added in the last edition are still the standard in the streaming box market. Any change to the Apple TV would hopefully come in the way of a new form factor. Compared to similar products from Amazon and Roku, the Apple TV is enormous and expensive, but given the price of $179 listed in Target’s system, a new form factor might be the best we can hope for.
As for the Apple Watch bands, Apple typically releases new lines to coincide with seasonal fashion releases. I’m still kicking myself for not picking up a orange or forest green Sport Loop band when I had the chance, so maybe this release will see a worthy alternative.
