All this would come according to a Bloomberg report, in which they warn us that the company would be developing its own Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chipwhich will debut in new models of Apple TV and Homepod Mini At the end of this year, and that would have more functions than we believed.
Will Apple sell routers?
The chip that Apple would be designing, will not only be a great advance for its products, improving the connections and being more efficient, but also would have a double function, as it would give them the ability to act as a router, that is, if we connect our Apple TV through Ethernet, or even WiFi, we could use this one to be a Access point for other equipmentthus achieving that the wireless signal comes much further, that is, acting as a normal repeater, but without having to pay for it, but already included in the Homepod Mini or Apple TV that we acquire.
It is curious but attractive at the same time, since if Apple begins to market its products with Connection repeaterswe could get our house to have the best possible wifi, using these as those amplifiers, without having to pay an extra for them, or needing another plug, etc.
For now it is only an idea, and we do not know if it will finally be carried out, everything will depend on the cost that this supposes, and how well it works, although if the rumor is there, and they already associate it with products of this year, it means that it is a strong rumor and that possibly ends up being reality, it is in these next models, or in the following.
Home automation is something that year after year we are associated with our lives, and having several homepods at home, as well as Smart bulbs, plugs, LED lightsetc., it is normal, however, so that everything works correctly, the connection has to be stable, and what better way that if the homepod you are going to use to turn off a light, it also improves the Wi -Fi signal, selling a 2 × 1, both in product, and in necessity, because now you will not only use it for one thing, but for two, which makes it more important within your home.
And you, do you think it is a good idea? Would you get more attention to acquire an Apple product if it also worked in this regard? Or do you think they are better focused on the product, without increasing costs, and that they leave each device for what it is, without getting into more land? Leave us a comment with your opinion about it. For now we will have to do if they finally do it, and how, to comment better, but it does not look bad, the truth, hopefully we can see this year already in these new models.
