Apple Working On New TV Set

The Wall Street Journal reported this week that Apple is working with a number of Asian manufacturers in order to create a device which will change the way television is viewed in the home. The as yet unnamed device will either be a TV set itself, or an altered version of the set-top box which is already on the market. Although the project is still considered to be in its early stages of testing and manufacture, Hon Hai Industries, one of Apple’s main collaborators, is said to be designing the device, and Apple is said to be in talks with cable companies and other content providers about their future launch.

Reports about Apple’s approach into the world of television have been long-standing. The late Steve Jobs dropped many hints about the project, which he said would integrate with the iCloud service and would have the most accessible and simple user interface imaginable. But despite the near-constant rumours, the Apple TV has not yet materialised, and though the eventual launch is highly likely, it won’t be within the next few years.

This means that those considering updating their television sets or their pop up television cabinets have plenty of time to select and enjoy a new device before the new Apple TV is launched. LED and plasma screen televisions are hitting the height of their powers right now, with prices falling and technology becoming more and more advanced. Those planning to purchase a new television set will need somewhere equally advanced in which to display their device.

Motorized TV cabinets house flat-screen televisions when they are not in use, and display them expertly when they are. Aesthetically, they fit with the interior of any lounge or living space, with contemporary and traditional styles both available. Whether opting for the glossy curves of a modern unit or the ornate carvings that become a focal point of a more retro-looking room, the cabinets can house any television perfectly whilst waiting for the Apple TV to be launched.

The TV lift cabinets also feature a universal television stand, which fits the majority of existing flat-screen television sets. It can be adjusted to hold different brands and models perfectly, elevating them to a viewable height and retracting them when they are not being used. This universal display unit will also be a great aspect of the unit when the Apple TV does come onto the market; the Apple device is almost certain to be as thin as many of its newer handheld devices, and will fit the existing stand with ease. Those investing in these stands now will see a home for their television for many years to come, whether Apple eventually launch their long-awaited TV set or not.
