Apple marks first Apple TV 4K ‘vintage’ with new model imminent
Key Points:
- The original Apple TV 4K from 2017 has been designated as a "vintage" product by Apple, meaning it has been over five years since it was discontinued.
- As a vintage product, Apple may still offer repairs and service, but this depends on the availability of parts, which could become limited.
- Products marked "obsolete" (over seven years discontinued) no longer receive service or hardware repairs from Apple, but the original Apple TV 4K has not yet reached this status.
- Owners of the first-generation Apple TV 4K are advised to seek repairs soon if needed, or consider upgrading to the new Apple TV 4K model being announced at Apple's upcoming event.
