My 2017 Apple TV 4K is so old that it’s now considered to be a vintage product, but that’s fine, because there’s a new model on the horizon with some features that I can’t wait to try out.

Apple routinely adds products to its vintage list when it last sold them more than five years ago, but less than seven years ago. It means that those products might be harder to get parts for, should a repair be needed.
As of October 9, 2026, the 2017 Apple TV 4K has been added to that list. I already knew that this thing was showing its age, and that it was probably time for an upgrade.
